    Default My hockey basement (and little slice of Hockey Heaven)

    Well,

    I haven't been around much lately due to selling, buying, moving, and working on, a my new house. I'm finally getting settled in and put some effort into my "man cave" aka, hockey-themed basement that houses my collection. (MUCH credit goes to the wife who was willing to give up the entire basement to support my hockey addiction )

    Considering you are all a bunch of hockey nuts like me, I wanted to share some photos of my tiny sliver of hockey paradise. I started collecting with my dad when I was about 5 or 6 years old and still collect to this day. It's still a work-in-progress but you'll get the idea!

    If any of you are ever in the Philly area and care to pop in for a few beers and a game, you're more than welcome!

    Very impressive! I remember playing that Bobby Orr pin ball machine when i was younger.

    I know a guy who had quite a Wayne Gretzky collection. He ended up selling to someone in Los Angeles for $90,000.

    It's an original 1978 Bobby Orr Bally's machine - in excellent condition. Original surface, casing and equipment. LED lights and wiring has been upgraded. Works like a charm!

    And, yeah, there are some sick Gretzky collectors out there. When I look at their set-ups, I drool.

    That's pretty awesome fung.
    I can't even find extra space in my house for my hockey equipment.
    So it sits in my bag, in my trunk, stewing.
    Ugh, I envy you.
