Default Air Hockey table nearby?

I know this is a random question, but does anybody know of an arcade or bar nearby with an air hockey table? My girlfriend and I used to play at Gameworks by the Riverview theater before they shut it down, and we haven't been able to find another table anywhere close. Any leads would be appreciated.

Thanks for the replies, but I should have been more specific. I don't mean the kind of air hockey table they have at Sugar Mom's or Buffalo Billiards (the little hockey players on poles that you move back and forth), I meant the kind of air hockey table where you and your opponent use a paddle to hit a plastic puck, which glides over air that comes out through little holes on the table. Anybody know where I can find one of those? Thanks!

these are likely not convenient for you, but they have them in the concourses of the wachovia center and at spruce street pinball in west philly. oddly, there were only 2 pinball machines in there the last time I visited.

Oooh! They added another Pinball table at 40th/Spruce! The Soprano's machine is rad! I love that place, although, I'll warn you...that arcade is VERY sketchy. There's always a cloud of pot smoke floating around in there and seems to be an obnoxious thug hangout. So yeah, I guess with anywhere...don't make trouble or invite it and you'll have fun!
I've never gotten to play Air Hockey over there because the tables are always being used as benches and "rolling" surfaces
