I went to the North Central Sports Bar with a friend the other night to check out the place. A couple of folks in the forum have already done so but I wanted to give a full report on the foosball table. Here are some photos:

It's a tornado, so you know it can stand up to some play. The rods were like sandpaper though and the ball was one of those cheap while plastic things you find on an entry level sportcraft or harvard table. I suggest you bring your own. The lighting is iffy, but it does have a clamp-on desk lamp above the table that you can adjust to shine on the playing surface. Be ready for the shadows.
My conclusion is that this table is one to avoid unless you are merely playing casually (and can bring your own foos balls, silicone and cleaning supplies) . Considering the number of good tables around the area I'll steer clear. Closest good table: Dubliners (just 6 minutes north on the 51).

Casey you are being too kind. What a POS! Cracks me up that the owner or promoter for that bar goes to the trouble of finding our board and posting knowing the table is a complete piece of shit. However I respect the professionalism of your report......

You ought to put some silicone on the rods. Being easy to move the rods will be more fun for your patrons.
