I remember last year that the Bar had a big screen tv but we watched the LSU-Alabama game in the lobby. Maybe we can remedy that this year?

I purchased my house in part because it's within one mile of Pappasito's. True story.
Quoted from Nevus:I remember last year that the Bar had a big screen tv but we watched the LSU-Alabama game in the lobby. Maybe we can remedy that this year?
From checking LSU football schedule, I see that LSU is at Alabama for the Sat Nov 9th game.
Game time is still listed as TBD per ESPN website.
I was ok w/ watching football games out in the hallway last year.
Makes it easy to go back & forth playing pinball and then step out in the hallway for watching a game w/ others. Nevus, the remedy is for LSU to win the game. 
Some other NCAA football games on Sat Nov 9th: Miss St at Tx A&M, Ark at Ole Miss,
Ks St at Tx Tech, Ks at Okla St, Tx at WVa, and TCU at Iowa St.
Hallway was good for me to keep up with boys. Plus we could have pizza delivered there.
Pros and cons.

I went to Pappasitos last week and they are up to $16 for a order of cheese enchiladas.
Quoted from PinballManiac40:Also Twin Peaks is near there along with Denny's and TGI Fridays.
Twin Peaks are awesome. Only see them in Houston. Will hit that place up for sure.
Quoted from zr11990:I went to Pappasitos last week and they are up to $16 for a order of cheese enchiladas.
Their prices have been on the rise lately. I guess the economy is improving? I recommend the Coronado - a cheese enchilada, three brochette shrimp, and a giant taco. Shrimp dipped in the mantequilla is awesome! Taco dipped in the mantequilla... also awesome!
Quoted from BarrySanders:You boys are killing me. It's Gold Cup by the way .
Yo Barry... I hope you'll save something for me to pick up. It's becoming a tradition that I get some kind of deal from you at these shows 
(or pass on one that you never let me live down)

Wondering if Marc is considering bringing Hercules again since it fell through with Dan letting us bring his for him.
Quoted from PinballManiac40:Wondering if Marc is considering bringing Hercules again since it fell through with Dan letting us bring his for him.
Don't have the time to get it ready. When I talked to you a month or two ago you were fairly confident that you would use Dan's so I decided on different titles. I know it is still six weeks out but with TPF promotions, Chicago Expo, family stuff and customer games my weekends are basically full leading up to Houston.
Pinball maniac 40 is " fairly confident " every year he can talk Dan into bringing Hercules. Right up until he actually talks to Dan about it...
I'd figured he would go for it if he didn't have to move it.
He mentioned not wanting the hassle of seeing anyone get it out of the standard size door.
Oh hell yeah!!! Hercules is making it to the Expo!!!
Thank you Marc for showcasing your machine.
This will make this year's Expo EPIC.
http://www.arcadecenter.com/showgames.asp?search=Pinball
50 pinball machines and counting.
34 days to go until it's SHOWTIME!!!!

It was the only way I could get you to stop stalking me
Quoted from Marc:It was the only way I could get you to stop stalking me
Figured the lunch or dinner on me at the Hotel hooked you into bringing it.
Hey Borygard,
What type of parts you plan on bringing out this year?
Will you have some colored cliffy post "rubbers" ?
Quoted from PinballManiac40:Hey Borygard,

Yep, Cliffy will be well represented as always. All colors of Cliffy Sleeves and most protectors too.
Lots of cool shooter rods and Flipper Toppers, anyPin NVRAM, hats, No-Solder Remote Battery Holders, etc., etc. Lots of cool stuff, at least what I don't run out of from Expo.

I rearranged my machines yesterday so I could get my game out of the wedge I had it in when it is show time. Really can't wait for this event.

What game are you bringing out of your lineup?
Quoted from BarrySanders:I'm putting you on the list , Silver
I have been working out, so put me up as a participant.
Quoted from BarrySanders:I'm putting you on the list , Silver
I guess I'll go stock up on Crisco. My one chance at winning is slathering the stuff on and slipping through your hulk grip.
All,
This will be my first expo. Is it safe to say that I should make a list of all things I would buy and find them at the expo? Is cash king when your buying things from vendors or are you paying retail prices but you'll save $$$ on shipping (or tax).
Just trying to get a feel on what to expect.

Quoted from Decat:My Elektra should be delivered tomorrow or Wednesday, so it should be ready for Expo.
I look forward to playing it. Thank you for showcasing it.
Just announced on FB that Marco Specialties will have a booth with us this year!
I can imagine they will bring at least one new Stern Star Trek.

Good news!! Dan is bringing a head-to-head Viza War pinball to the Expo. It is very similar to the Joust pinball.
This one has a really cool feature. You hit the middle shot and it disables the opponent's flippers for a set time.
It is a real fun game.
Some more machines were posted last night and just a bit ago. Up from 116 to 151.
Breakdown - 65 pins and 75 video games.
I got to hang with Dirty Donnie at Expo this weekend and he said he is really is looking forward to the Houston Expo and I'm also really looking forward to his next custom game to Spook House.
Quoted from Pinballfantexas:I'm also really looking forward to his next custom game to Spook House.
When is that due out?
reposting questions I had:
