Borygard&#039;s 2017 Show Schedule

There are many reasons Expo's not on the list this year. The hotel, so obviously doesn't want us there. I want to enjoy what I do, ultimately, it's not fun for me anymore, and it's a big money losing proposition for me now.

No sense in spending lots of money on something I don't enjoy where I'm not wanted.

Definitely hope to add other shows as I confirm with organizers, and I'll of course update the list as I do.

There's also a possibility I'll make PPE this year. Will update the thread once I know for sure.

Quoted from mrgone:
I will just throw this out there. Anyone and everyone looking for a fun pinball show of pinheads, by pinheads, and for pinheads please consider pin a go go. It's the people's pinball show. Over the years I have talked to many people that have attended expo and other big shows. They have all said pagg is their favorite show.

Absolutely, PaGG is awesome! I think it's the only show in the country that gets added to next year's list, even before the current year is over.

As I begin to gear up for shows, I'm bumping this thread to confirm my show schedule for this year.

Texas Pinball Festival
Frisco TX - March 24-26th
Embassy Suites - Frisco Hotel and Convention Center
http://www.TexasPinball.com

Midwest Gaming Classic
Milwaukee WI - April 7-9th
Sheraton Milwaukee Brookfield Hotel
http://www.MidwestGamingClassic.com

Pin-a-GoGo
Dixon CA - May 19-21st
Dixon County Fairgrounds
http://www.PinaGoGo.org

ReplayFX
Pittsburgh PA - July 27th-30th
David L. Lawrence Convention Center
http://www.ReplayFX.com

I will be offering my arsenal of parts, mods, testers, tools, board and game repair, and of course, install of my anyPin NVRAM Battery Eliminators.

anyPin NVRAM Battery Eliminator Install-
For those bringing games to the show for others to enjoy in the free play area, I'm offering free anyPin install for the games you bring to the show. Bring me the board from the game, and your anyPin NVRAM, and I'll hand it back to you with a professionally installed RAM socket and no more batteries will ever be required for your game again.

I'll offer the same install for anyone bringing me their CPU at the show, but don't have it there in the free play area, for only $15.

Board and Game Repair-
Everything is first come first served, no appointments. Not everything may get done at the show. If it doesn't get done at the show, it will be shipped back to you after it's finished. Priority will always go to games that are at the show. I usually get pretty swamped pretty quickly, so please don't bring me a board Saturday evening and expect it to be done at the show.

Currently Bally/Williams WPC boards will be done at these shows with the possibility of System 11 and DE/Sega boards done at the show depending on how busy I get. No sound boards will be done at shows.

All anyPin NVRAM Battery Eliminator installs will be done at the show.

Any questions can be posted here if you'd like.

Rob,
Please stay for Sunday the 9th for the MGC

LOL! Only because you asked so nicely Dan.

That typo has been there for months by the way.

Madison, WI April 6th Hang out with Hilton and go to Alt Brew for the monthly.

If you mean Wednesday the 5th Hilton, we're good. If you do mean Thursday the 6th, we may need to adjust a bit.

Quoted from Whysnow:
yeah, unfortunately the way the show drops in the month this year it does mess it up. First Thursday of each month is Alt Brew.
Normally the days work out so you come the 2nd Wed of the month (Pooleys) and then load in on Thurday before the show.
Either date works to hang, but that Thursday will be AltBrew which I need to run.
Just keep me posted. Either way, we are hanging out and drinking some brown ales and burbon and playing some pinball. I am sure you can help with a few projects also. Orbitor1 wont work and I am struggling. May actually have my sample TZ on its legs by then and it will need some assistance also

Looking forward to it!

Hey Eric, Thursday night would be just fine. I try and get set up as early as possible on Thursday.

I'll definitely have plenty of anyPin with me, but I do things the way I do to not step on my distributor's toes. If you prefer to purchase elsewhere with the rest of your pinball parts, that's perfectly fine.

Quoted from daley:
Rob, I am going to bring a pile of WPC MPU's to PAGG for you to put sockets in for anyPin RAM.
I was hoping you could also replace LM7812 with a switching regulator I got from KAHR on a couple power driver boards.
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/announcing-new-product-to-help-resolve-resets-in-wpc-era-games/page/3#post-1575065
Is that something you could do at the show?

Sure. However, if you're giving me the driver board to install the new regulator, why not just have me fix any reset issue properly, instead of just bypassing the issue?
