It's GOFER TIME, PINSTERS. Now that we have broken Medieval Madness before our arcade has even officially opened, it's time to move on while we wait for Jeff to fix it and play some GOFERS! 1997 Williams Pinball, voted #47 in Pinside's top 100 pinball machines of all time. They're wacky... they're pesky... they're GOFERS! And they are here to knock some balls around for you party pinsters

The Gofer doesn't get enough love. He's a workhorse with a knack for being in the right place at the right time. Thank you, Mr. Gofer, for your service.

I got some stuff FIXED on this game finally. Now Bud the gofer isn't stuck in the up position all the time and pops in and out like it's supposed to. Evidently it needs to have a brass washer in the mechanism to negate any residual magnetism. Also the Buzz ramp didn't stay up when you were supposed to lock the 2nd ball under it for multiball. A metal part had completely broke off and was laying in the bottom of the cabinet. I replaced that so now the buzz ramp is working fine. Also I noticed the kickback on the left outlane was messed up, so now got that working solidly. For some reason it didn't have a coil sleeve and the spring was really weak. Now everything on this game should be 100% working other than the insert wear all over the playfield. I'm not going to try to dive into repairing that, which is why I got the game really cheap in the first place. I also put up my best gofers score after I was done working on it: 28,947,380

I have a friend who could restore this to "No Good Golfers" if you would like? The damage seems extensive though
