Shorty's pinball tournament has gotten intense. This past year, 116 competitors came from six countries, including the reigning world champion (from Pittsburgh) and the guy ranked number six (from Stockholm). The non-pro pinballer doesn't stand a chance, and the smell of excreted stress is not pleasant. The First Annual Georgetown Invitational Pinball Tournament (starting at Jules Maes Saloon, with satellite games at Calamity Jane's and the 9 Lb. Hammer) is for amateurs and local ne'er-do-wells, for drinking and having fun. Georgetown Brewing Company will provide a valuable grand prize; all entrants get a commemorative T-shirt. (Jules Maes Saloon, 5919 Airport Way S, 957-7766. 2 pm, $10 to enter/free to be, 21+.)
