Get your thinking caps on!

At what speed (RPM) do the reels on an early Big Bertha spin????




Good luck!

I just asked that via PM. Wondering if it was an E-series?

<ADD> Come to think of it, what were those gaffed machines in the movie Casino?

Damn, you guys are a tough crowd....I'll double check my source, but for now, if there WASN'T an EM Big Bertha, then just go with the oldest one you know of...

I'm removing the EM from the question....just to mute that point...

There's one at Marvin's Marvelous Mechanical Museum in Farmington, Mich.  Albeit a Bally, an EM Bertha/Jumbo nonetheless.  And a very cool place to visit if you are ever in the area, would probably appeal to most members here and I believe the owner may have been a member here in the past if not still.  Visit marvin3m.com to check out it out.

Okay I visualized myself watching a BB spin form last time I watched one, which was a ZILLION years ago. I then opened the clock/timer app on my laptop and timed 15 seconds and counted imaginary Big Bertha reels spinning. My answer is:
50 rpm
