    Wear Depends, because once you start playing you won't want to leave the room for _anything_.

    Quoted from robotron911:

    Huh, start playing what? The freeplay room has been on a steady decline since three years ago and there are about a dozen Sterns in the main room. The pins for sale usually aren't set up by sellers for play. No sane person would go to Expo for the pinball play. You go because of the seminars and schmoozing. Seriously, Expo is about 7th or 8th on list of events as far actually playing goes. And it's taking a steep nosedive as far as meeting and greeting because alot of people are so turned off by the last few years that they aren't going any longer.

    Damn, that's sad, if true. I haven't been able to make it to an Expo since I bought Kerry Stair's NIB Monopoly off the floor in '02, but _that_ year (and years before), the free play room _rocked_.
