Notable Features

The mechanical backbox animation consists of a flipper in the lower right part of the backbox and a basket on the far left side. The game controls the backbox flipper sometimes when points are scored. For instance, after a set amount of pop bumper hits, during multiball, and during the Egyptian Soda and Hot Dog Mania modes. The exception is Pizza Power Shots mode. In this mode, the player tries to score as many points as possible in the backbox basket. This is done by flipping the backbox flipper at the right moment. A basket shot can be worth 1, 2 or 3 points, depending on the amount shown in the score display at the moment of hitting the basket switch.

Historical Notes

Voice-over artist Tim Kitzrow provided the voice of the play-by-play announcer. This game is equipped with four pinballs. There are two versions of the playfield. Later versions of the playfield had two holes in the playfield below the aerial basketball hoop, each in the shape of a "racetrack oval", each placed between two posts that support a rubber ring. One hole was used to route an opto wire through while the other one was unused as far as we know. Earlier versions of the playfield did not have these holes and instead routed the opto wire up and behind the scoreboard. The difference is explained here.
