Pinball tournament held to benefit UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- A pinball tournament was held on Wednesday at Gestalt Haus in San Francisco's Mission District to benefit UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital.

Allagash Brewing Co. and Gestalt Haus teamed up to put on this event that was open to anyone.

"We're hosting a pinball fundraiser tournament for Pinball Outreach Project, which helps put pinball machines in children's hospitals and, you know, gives support to the kids," said Aaron Nelson with Allagash Brewing Co.

When asked what the goal is he said, "Last year we raised about $1,000. Down in LA two weeks ago we raised $750. So obviously we want to be able to beat LA and eclipse what we brought in last year."
