    Okay, we posted this to our local facebook group and not getting much response...we're going to go ahead and have it ANYWAYS, so to heck with the shopping, and arguing with relatives, and the games will go on!

    Come play Rollergames sample with Cliffy's extra-hot-hot-pink sleeves, and my "unboxed in the last few days" Tron 2D. I am desparately trying to get Space Shuttle back up and playable as well...very close! I will also have Pinball Arcade up on the 50" bigscreen as well, sorry, no, I don't own all the released PS3 tables yet..

    We are going to have some food, basically calling this the "Thanksgiving Leftover Potluck", and drinks. We have two kids, 2 and 7, we can probably deal with a few more. Our place is very small, but we will do our best to accomodate anyone that wants to show up and play. We have a good area outside our condo to chat/smoke.

    ******We do request that if you plan on attending, please don't bring anything with peanut in it. Yes, that includes candy in your purse or pocket. No PBJ sandwiches for your kids if you bring food for them, etc... Our 2 year old is allergic, epinephrine pens are expensive, and I don't want to shut down the party to call an ambulance.******

    Location: 635/75 area in Richardson/Garland/North Dallas. PM me if you plan on coming so that I can give you specific instructions.

    Hours: 2pm-1am 11/23/12

    I'm not planning on running any tournaments, but we may cobble together something if enough people show and are into the idea.

    The Friday after Thanksgiving used to be a big day for me. I open at noon and by then the guys were abandoning the shopping in mass.

    I used to do a couple pinball tournaments too.

    But now that so many stores are open the evening before ( on Thanksgiving ) or earlier than 9am. I think by noon most people are done and back home sleeping.

    LTG : )

    Buuuuuuuump. Space Shuttle will be up and running! Maybe with a few controlled lamp lighting when they shouldn't be, but nothing preventing gameplay!

    Awesome idea Frax! Can't wait to hear how it goes. Grats on the Tron 2D btw. I just unboxed mine a couple of hours ago, and having a blast playing it.
