Albert Posted March 8, 2007 Author Share Posted March 8, 2007 Only if I wasnt stuck in NE ohio Yeah, me too, now!!! Which sucks, as I've gone to this show a few times, including in fall of 2005 when they last held it. I'd also usually go to the Houston Arcade Group's show, which they hold once a year. I wonder if there are enough pinball and arcade enthusiasts in Ohio to make putting together a show feasible? Hmmmmm. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No plans to go as a vendor, but may stop by to see what it's about since I've never been to one of their shows before. Although maybe I could bring some of my used games and try to sell them, since the show is only a few hours and I won't have to spend a lot of time preparing. And I could maybe setup some homebrew games for people to play on a system or two. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
