Bat City Monthly Open Pinball Tourney @ Bender

Flip, nudge, and battle your way through the Bat City Monthly Open Pinball Tourney at Bender, where silverball fanatics and curious newcomers collide for three fast-paced hours of qualifying and finals action.

1. Show up early, check in before the first ball is plunged, and get ready for wall-to-wall pinball and easygoing socializing.
2. All skill levels are welcome, from first-time flipper to IFPA diehard, and there’s no cap on players and no need to pre-register.
3. Bring cash for the tournament entry and for the machines themselves, then settle in for multiple rounds of group match play or head-to-head battles, depending on how many contenders show up and which games are online.
4. Expect a structured format with automated tiebreakers, clear rules on extra balls, and a three-division finals setup that keeps competition fair, fun, and intense for everyone.
5. A, B, and Novice divisions mean you’ll be vying for bragging rights against players close to your own experience level, with cash payouts for the top divisions and frequently some seriously cool custom trophies for the finalists.
6. Stick around through the finals to see who rises to the top of the scoreboard, who tilts under pressure, and who walks away with the hardware.

If you love fast reflexes, blinking lights, and a little friendly trash talk over the sound of clacking flippers, this monthly tourney is a must-play evening of competitive pinball and laid-back community vibes.
