Just registered to the forum. Also, just getting back into foosball. I played a lot in late 1970's through the early 1990's; sold my quarter million dollar table and thought foosball had died. About a year ago I noticed a lot of internet talk about foosball... and bought another table (Tornado 3000). Went to the Tornado tournament in Lexington, and was pleasantly surprised by the number of players.
Sadly, foosball left my area (Dayton Ohio) years ago; there are no tables in the area (other than those at peoples homes).
I'm currently trying to convince a proprietor to put some tables in his establishment; it's about 50/50 chance at the moment. Keeping my fingers crossed.
