Amusement activity station

An amusement activity station, the amusement activity station for enabling a user to operate complex machinery to pick up and position select objects, the amusement activity station comprising:

• a complex machine, the complex machine comprising a user position station, a user-to-machine interface, and a pick-up mechanism for picking up at least one select object, the pick-up mechanism being movable relative to the user position station by way of a manual operation of the user-to-machine interface;
• and
• at least one object-receiver station in spaced relation to the complex machine, the at least one object-receiver station comprising at least one object-receiving structure;
• each object-receiving structure comprising a receiver axis, the receiver axis of each object-receiving structure extending in a select angle relative to a station support surface;
• the select angle being selected from the group consisting of an oblique angle, and a zero angle, the select angle being oblique to the station support surface at the oblique angle and the select angle being parallel to the station support surface at the zero angle;
• the pick-up mechanism being directable for picking up the at least one select object by way of the pick-up mechanism and directing the at least one select object toward the at least one object-receiving structure, the at least one object-receiving structure being configured to cooperably position the at least one select object.
