PAX East 2011 Racketboy Meet Up March 13, 4-7pm @ACAM Arcade

Post by dsheinem »

Ok, so this is a month away and I am starting to get excited. I plan to be there at least some of each day.

DATE: March 13
TIME: 4pm-7pm
LOCATION: Meet outside the front of the American Classics Arcade Museum Arcade (at the convention)

In (so far):
racketboy
racketgirl
dsheinem
noiseredux
coastercrazy10 (+1)
yayitsdan
NathanBarnatt
weasels
littlecallen

Maybe:
pakopako


We really should all get together some evening and play some games and have a few drinks. I will be staying with a college buddy, so I don't have a good suggestion for where to do a meet up. Maybe someone from the area does? We'll use this thread to do some planning...

(Apologies to coastercrazy10 who had a thread on this topic recently, but I thought a dedicated meet up thread made sense...)

I'm still not sure what day I'm coming. I have a family commitment on the 12th it seems. Which would have been the ideal day to come. :?

Is the schedule up yet? I'd really like to be there for the Retronauts panel.

Just a thought: if the family commitment isn't all day you could do a meetup one day and the con another....

it's fairly doubtful that I could get up there two days honestly. We'll see what happens though.

EDIT: looks like Retronauts is Friday afternoon. So my only way of seeing that would be to take the day off from work...

ok i really want to go because the protomen are playing... I am a huge fan of this band and seeing them would be the best one of the best moments of my life. but due to a lack of money, it would be a stretch to get the money for both the ticket and a room. if anyone can throw me a bone on a place to stay or doubling up for a room, talk to me and i may be able to get there.

so are there other New England folks planning to go - or maybe just to come by for the meet up? It would be great if we had a person "on the ground" to scout locations, etc.

That would be great. I feel I owe you a drink anyway for all the auction help and advertising over the past two years, so let me know if/when you'll be in town!

Strange to see so few people from here planning to come...
