[FSPA] Fairfax Pinball Update

Thu Jun 18 07:11:31 EDT 2020

One would think. Sanitizer.

Pins seem relatively easy to sanitize. Parts touched are mostly buttons and areas near buttons. Pool tables seem more problematic — more places to touch. Plus felt.

But really, maybe just sanitize your hands before and after. Don’t touch your face. 

Wear a mask (smartly).

Individual results may vary.

I have heard of an interesting exception to the slot machine looking, card dispensing gambling devices in VA that you have seen in places in last few years. Like alcohol-selling stores that were allowed to open early on, I guess VA allows people to get their gambl'n on.

Playing a single player game and then another patron playing it right after he/she is finished is essentially the same thing as two people playing a two-player game.

Pinball equipment may be considered for single use(not shared equipment).  If I play on location it will be a single player game until we are allowed to play multiplayer...

>> I was told the same thing as Roland...Virginia has been pretty vague about this (probably because it's not really a big issue in the grand scheme of things) but if you look under the FAQ section they ask about pool halls. The state says no shared equipment shall be operated....that said if the bar is ok with it and your willing to take the risk that no one says anything.....
