As a Chicago native and diehard Cubs fan, the boss had to pick up this game when we came across it two years ago. This Chicago Cubs Triple Play pinball machine was in good shape, but we knew we could make it look great. Now it’s fully restored, and it looks amazing!
We just sent this ultimate collectible home with another serious fan, but you can still check it out here. Go, Cubbies!
