Snider-man Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 And we also watched 35 mm TRON (proudly owned by Roloff "Deleto" de Jeu) in our own private room at the University of Karlsruhe Sweet merciful crap. That alone woulda been worth flying over from the US to see. TRON on the big screen. I am truly envious. Looks like a great meet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted October 1, 2003 Share Posted October 1, 2003 Very cool pics! Thanks for all the effort to show us the show & festivities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Posted October 1, 2003 Author Share Posted October 1, 2003 I'm sure there will be more pictures from others soon. When compared to the US conventions, EuroCon is just a small event. But it's the cosy atmosphere that makes it a very nice happening, I think. Hanging out with a bunch of fellow gamers and collectors for a couple of days, talking, trading, drinking, is just big fun, especially when you get some nice treats like the TRON movie and the many arcade machines thrown in. The guys in Germany did a very nice job. Now I guess it's time to hold one in Holland again - though Blackpool was very nice as well Cheers, Marco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
