Seattle Pinball Youtube Channel

Seattle Pinball Services has created a new Youtube channel to post some of the high lights of their hosted local tournaments.

With the recent posting of the Emerald City Cup finals it has come to our attention that Germain has created a new youtube channel. Saying that the videos are highlights is something of a misnomer since all of the videos are over 5 hours long! Besides the Emerald City Cup the channel also has videos from 2023’s Winter Open, this years State Championships and the first Ice-Burgh Challenge.
