Episode Summary:
There are many stars inside the pinball industry, but few create such an emotional ripple in the hobby when they pass. Lyman Sheats gave so much for pinball and always wanted to give more. A perfectionist who was often too hard on himself, Lyman was always looking for ways to improve his games.
This month Ron and Dave talk all about the beginnings of Lyman's tournament dominance, his Data East codes, his first days at Bally-Williams, coding Attack from Mars, teaming up with George Gomez, Lyman's drive for perfection, "In Lyman We Trust", the Masterpiece that is Batman '66 by KaPow Pinball, and his untimely death which rocked the pinball community.
