(this cache is based on my original Pachinko cache hid in Oak Ridge, TN in February of 2016)
Pachinko gambling/gaming machines, very popular in Japan, were first built during the 1920s as a children's toy and transitioned to an adult pastime around 1930. The first commercial pachinko parlor was opened in 1948 and the popularity of pachinko as a form of gambling in Japan soon became widespread.
According to Wikipedia: "By 1994, the pachinko market in Japan was valued at nearly $300 billion. As of 2015, Japan's pachinko market generates more gambling revenue than that of Las Vegas, Macau and Singapore combined!" The machines were introduced stateside at many arcades in the 1970’s but they never became popular here.
A pachinko machine is essentially a pinball machine rotated to vertical. That should give you an idea of what to expect from this cache. The cache is camouflaged to blend in with the surroundings. The immediate area can become quite soggy after a hard or prolonged period of rain. Enjoy your walk on the game trails through this designated recreation area and don't forget your Discover Pass. Note: The surrounding area may become flooded after several days of heavy rain.
NOTICE: Area is open to bird hunting in season (generally Sept / Oct).
