Stern Pinball, Dead Flip launch 24-hour pinball marathon

ELK GROVE VILLAGE - Stern Pinball, the world's oldest and largest producer of arcade-quality pinball games, will be teaming up with Dead Flip, an organization of Chicago-based pinball enthusiasts, for a live stream of Dead Flip's host, Jack Danger, while he attempts to play pinball for over 24 hours.

The marathon will begin at 5 p.m. Aug. 19 at twitch.tv/dead-flip/.

Danger will push his flippers to the limit during the 24-hour online stream. Danger will begin playing, cycling out a new Stern Pinball machine every four hours, in an attempt to achieve pinball stardom.

"Pinball is a very physical game, and this will be quite an endurance test," said Danger.

The entirety of the event will be streamed from the Dead Flip Twitch Page - a rare event in the gaming website's history.

"We're excited to see Jack make pinball history," said Gary Stern, Chairman and CEO of Stern Pinball. "It is our greatest pleasure to highlight the dedication and excitement pinball brings to its audience."
