Looking for Easter eggs at Portal Pinball

Paul talks to the owner of the Acworth arcade to find out how to set high scores.

ATLANTA - Retro pinball arcade "scores big" at new Acworth location: There’s no denying that the hot trends of 2022 strongly echo those of the 1980s, thanks in no small part to the Atlanta-lensed Netflix hit "Stranger Things." And now that acid washed jeans are back on the rack and the Kate Bush classic "Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God)" is back on the charts, we decided to visit a place where the pioneering arcade games of the 1980s are still stumping players of all ages. This morning on Good Day Atlanta, we spent some time aiming for new high scores at Portal Pinball, which recently moved from Kennesaw to a new location in Acworth. Portal Pinball was first opened in 2018 by Bryan and Amanda Broyles; Bryan says the arcade is the result of his lifelong fascination with the mechanic and design of pinball machines. Today, the arcade houses more than 35 pinball machines from the 1970s through present day, including Flash Gordon from 1980, The Machine: Bride of Pin Bot from 1991, and The Mandalorian from 2021 Portal Pinball is located at 3335 Cobb Parkway, Suite 800, in Acworth, and current hours are Noon to 10:00 p.m. on Mondays through Saturdays and 1:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. Click here for more information.
