bjk7382 Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 Well, I went and picked up our rental car we are driving down there. It is a really nice 2004 chevy malibu with 1700 miles on it! We are having our sightseeing day on Friday and we are heading out tomorrow morning. I should be in the hotel room with free high speed internet by tomorrow night.

GrandAmChandler Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 For everyone who is driving tonight (thursday) and Friday morning, the king of prussia area is supposed to get 2-4 inches of snow tonight up until tomorrow morning (Friday) Roads should be clear by vendor set up time, and fine by saturday, as there is a 55 degree warm front coming through. Be careful, and keep your fingers crossed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K3V Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 Same old, same old for me. We just got hammered with about 12" of snow here in Buffalo over the past 2 days. So much for spring starting on Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobafett07728 Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 There is NO WAY a little snow is stopping me from getting to my first Classic Gaming Event!!!!!! I'll be leaving about noon Friday. Do a little sightseeing, and be fully prepared for a great Saturday & Sunday!!! See you all there!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PongHit Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 Hi: PhillyClassic.com no longer contains the price of admission... Or, if it does, I can't find it. So, can someone tell me the price? Is it $10.? EDIT: Nevermind -- I found the answer... Not on PhillyClassic's site, but on the front page of classicgaming.com: Admission is $10 for 1 day ($5 with student ID) and $15 for both days. Kids under 10 are free if accompanied by an adult (1 child per adult). Thanks, -PongHit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am here now and while there is some snow on the ground now, but we (thankfully) didn't hit any on the way up. Did have lots of thick fog, though, which slowed us down a bit in Texas and Ohio. Haven't looked at the forecast yet to see what's supposed to happen between now and Sunday. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tantone56 Posted March 19, 2004 Author Share Posted March 19, 2004 I know here in central nj we are supposed to get four to seven inches starting tonight at 9.00 and ending tomorrow morning at 11.00. If the philly classic gets closed than im throwing a shit fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaManFan Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 We are here. Fortunately we only had to drive from the airport to the hotel, but even that was a mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intrepid Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 I'm leaving in the AM, staying at a friends on Friday night, and will be at the Radisson on Saturday night. Looking forward to seeing everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandAmChandler Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 I'm heading out in this mess soon. see all you fellow vendors around 1pm~! -Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PongHit Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 It's 8:30AM here in Philadelphia, & the snow has already stopped! There's isn't much snow on the ground & it's melting fast -- the high temp today will be around 45 degrees -- so driving/flying is NOT a problem...! I hope no one lets the weather discourage them -- come to PhillyClassic! -PongHit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjk7382 Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 I am now in philly also. I got here last night about 8pm. after driving about 770 miles.

joeybastard Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 @!#$%!!! As of now, it looks like I'm working this weekend after all which means I'm not making it to Philly tomorrow. I gotta find another job or hit the Lotto or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tantone56 Posted March 20, 2004 Author Share Posted March 20, 2004 Well it looks like I wont need that shit fit after all considering how it doesnt appear to be getting closed. Did any of the vendors set up yet? what does it look like in there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackwolf Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 Here's a few pics I snapped during setup. I did NOT take any pics of the AtariAge booth yet (or AtariMuseum) because they weren't done, and I'd rather wait until everything is up in it's full glory before taking pics of them. But trust me, they look cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 WTF is Tommy Tallarico doing there ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackwolf Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 He's with Joychix.com...Mark Wolfe and him are close, and convinced him to come out this year. He's autographing his CD and some Earthworm Jim stuff I believe, as well as raffling off a special DVD of Electric Playground's 100th episode (autographed.) As for what he's doing in the PICTURE - Eye Toy for the PS2. :> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked with him once, he did sound and music for one of the games I worked on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
