Looking for any place that has a Bubble hockey machine in or around Philadelphia? Most places that used to have them, have taken them out.

Hi JAB: Welcome to Chexxfan! I also saw your post on the www.njbubblehockey.org message board and replied to you there. www.njbubblehockey.org/index.php?option=com_kunena&func=view&catid=6&id=83&Itemid=37For those of you in the Chexxfan community, the short story is that pickings are real slim in the SuperChexx table department in Philly/Eastern PA/NJ. Aside from my league in south Jersey (South Jersey Bubble Hockey League), I only know of one table in a public place, an old red base game (USA v Canada) located in an arcade in the Burlington Center Mall (ironically only about 3 miles from me!). It is pretty beat up, stripped gears, worn ice surface, guys coming out of their gearboxes, all the usual wear and tear stuff. They just put it in the arcade when the NHL Playoffs started and it may be removed when the playoffs are over. But any port in a storm... If you are interested, my league starts up again around the end of August/beginning of September. Check it out at http://www.njbubblehockey.org: www.njbubblehockey.org/If interested in more details, reply to this post or shoot me an email (njbubblehockey@verizon.net). Welcome to Chexxfan.com and hopefully we'll get together for some bubble hockey in the future! JG (aka John)

Hey JAB,
I have a game and live in Andorra section of Philadelphia, it's about 10-15 minutes from Conchy and Plymouth Mtg. Me and a buddy of mine from Reading, Pa. get together every other week and even sometimes once a week to play some games. You are always welcome to join us. Kevin

Jab, I forgot to mention, Me and my buddy also played in this past New Jersey league for the first time, had good time, learned a few things and met some nice guys. We will be playing their next league come late August/Sept. We car pool it if you want to check the league out some nite.

About a year ago I was at a bar called Sugar Mom's in Olde City and they had a game there. I think it was a dollar to play. Really great shape too. your best bet is to play in the South Jersey Bubble Hockey League. Last season was my first and I had a blast. Great bunch of guys and some really amazing talent. I learned a lot from them too, as most of them really try to help you with your game.

I just heard that there is a Brand new Coin op Chexx game in South Philly at the XFINITY Live Center. (Sports Complex Area) It's located right outside the Bullies Restaurant/Pub. Also heard you could probaly play for free if you possess some skill. ;D

I was in Philly this weekend and found a Chexx game in great shape at a place called the Fieldhouse by the Reading Terminal. Dollar a play.

Looking for any place that has a Bubble hockey machine in or around Philadelphia? Most places that used to have them, have taken them out. Yes your right! As far as bar tables go it's not too beat up. But the best place to play in the Philly area is in the Penn-Jersey League, Top notch games and it's free. They meet Tuesday nights. Search them out on the National Bubble Hockey Association "Group" not page for info.
