If you're in the Bay Area (which contains dozens of unique and intriguing museums,) one of the best-kept secrets is Pacific Pinball Museum, located in Alameda. This museum is like an arcade in which you can play the machines for a flat fee (around $15) while learning about the history of pinball. A campaign to relocated the museum into an historic 1902 Carnegie Library building in Alameda is underway. Funds are desperately needed so maybe some rich tech giant from Facebook or Google or Apple will step in and save the day.
