History

In the 1940's, Art and Lorena Kinney began their business career with a greasy spoon diner called the Eagle Lunch on north Jefferson in Springfield, MO.  With the purchase of the diner came a jukebox and pinball machine for customers' entertainment purposes. The Machines actually out-earned the restaurant, so they continued to buy more and more until they ended up with an amusement route, and that was the start of Kinney Amusement in 1948.  Sixty-two years later the family tradition continues with its third generation running the business.
