For the records here in this forum as well.

Because of him, this forum was born and was a place for the people who did trust in Gene Cunningham to make BBB available to a lot of pinball enthusiasts.

Gene Cunningham passed away on November 27th 2019.

RIP Gene and thank you for making pigs fly!!

I saw that in rec.games.pinball, I have to applaud Gene for coming thru even though the games were more expensive to make than he charged for them, I still have mine. RIP Gene.

As many of you know, I spent a lot of time with Gene during the building of the machines. I interviewed him on multiple occasions and was privileged to be able to share some of it here. He actually called me to tell me the release date so I could share it with y'all. TOG was a little put off but was right there to confirm it. Paul and I went up to Bloomington early to help set up for the release. It was an important time in Pinball history because nobody had ever done a successful run of a small quantity of pins. I have a lot more thoughts on Gene but I've always said, he should be remembered for completing this project and that he made pigs fly!
