We are about to take signups for the Super 7 Godzilla Pinball Championship tournament here at Free World Watch tonight. The winner of this tournament will be sent to Pinball Expo in Chicago where they will compete. Hey everybody, my name is Brian Flynn. I am the founder and owner of Super 7 and I'm here at the Stern Pinball kind Super 7 Godzilla pinball tournament in front of the Godzilla machine. The prizes for this pinball tournament are absolutely insane. They are one-of-a-kind backglass metal Stern Pinball Godzilla and Mecha Godzillas in metallic gold, metallic silver, and metallic bronze. I'm super excited to participate. It was very unexpected, so when I saw it pop up, I was like, "Hell yeah, I'm going." Uh, love Godzilla. Everyone loves Godzilla. One of the best games in the last 10 years. I'm always in Super 7 buying stuff, especially Godzilla stuff. So, I'm hoping to win some swag. I would love to win this competition. I've never won a competition before and I've never been to Chicago or seen any of the certain places or anything out there. So, I would love to go and look at everything for sure.
