What a great weekend of events! I totally owe you guys trip down for an upcoming tournament. I had commitments I couldn't break both Sat and Sun. Those trophies are awesome!
I'm looking forward to seeing you all in November.

Quoted from Nevus:I'm looking forward to seeing you all in November.
Yea, looks like HAAG is next up for the Gulf Coast / Ark-LaTex clubs. Should be a fun weekend! Seems really far away though!
Hmmm.
Based on your Pinside online name KornFreak, I'd say yes, welcome aboard. But hold up a sec. Laredo is technically south Tx, not Se Tx. So, I don't know.
Are you planning to go to the upcoming Houston Arcade and Pinball Expo in Nov, and are you willing to bring a pinball machine and have it set on free-play, and/or have a machine for sale there?
You could join the Ark-La-Tx Pinball Club. They have a Facebook Group, and most of the same members as GCPC. 
Quoted from Pinball-is-great:Hmmm.

That's true. I'm not in SE TX. Yes I will be attending the Houston Pinball Expo....I can't take a machine at the moment. But thanks for your consideration!
I wanted to join because I have lots of family in Houston (I was born there) and I go all the time. But rules are rules. Thanks

There is a few groups in Houston the HAAG group and SHAG
So it's soon to be Friday night lights go out and support your local high school football cheerleaders and band. You can guess where I'll be tonight

You're in! Just come make one of our events. How is your TAF doing?
Quoted from TigerLaw:You're in! Just come make one of our events. How is your TAF doing?
Thanks! As you probably know by now, my TAF is getting restored by Mr. Bryan Kelly. He's been doing an awesome job so far! The cabinet is getting sanded and primed. He is currently at Expo so no more work until next week. Are you currently restoring yours with HEP? Is that your machine?
Quoted from KornFreak28:Are you currently restoring yours with HEP? Is that your machine?
Yup, we will have two of the nicest TAFs in existence.

Awesome! Great timing too!
I was just goofing around last night with my post above KornFreak. Yes, we're happy to have you. Sounds like your TAF pin will be impressive.

Thank you sir! Had me feeling a bit guilty there for a minute...I was like "He's right! I'm not in SE Texas!" Thanks a lot for letting me in!

Quoted from Arcade:Tonight's live stream is Whitewater. 9:00 till 11:00
Stop in and chat a bit.

We still struggle to get the live stream going. Are old ones on youtube?
Maybe I can get Mudflaps to come with me (to Lake Charles) next time. He will arrive in Shreveport soon.
Nevus and Mudflaps on an out of town pinball roadtrip to hang out with other pinball junkies (enthusiasts). News highlights will probably make it onto Saturday Night Live's Weekend Update segment.
Quoted from PavBall:We still struggle to get the live stream going. Are old ones on youtube?
Yes we are putting them on You Tube as well. just search The Pinball Mafia.
On our way home from Expo. Wow, what a show. Preston and I had the time of our lives.

What did you and Preston think of dialed in?

In!
I'm back in the good ole' USA converting my deployment muscle into fat. We depart the tundra soon and will be invading LA gamerooms shortly.
Quoted from TigerLaw:What did you and Preston think of dialed in?
The game plays great. All the shots feel great.
Theme. Meh, we are still on the fence.
Pat Lawlor told me code was only 20% so the game has much more to add.
It takes selfies of you to post on the big screen. If you set your phone on a special place on the lockdown bar during multiball you can pick up your phone and control the machine with your phone.
It also uses hand movement to do things like scratch of a virtual loto ticket.
Quoted from Arcade:We will be live streaming the new Ghostbusters code tonight from 9-11 P.M. Stop in and see what all the fuss is about. There will also be Pinball Expo talk as well. So much going on in Pinball right now. http://www.twitch.tv/thepinballmafia
That was very fun last night guys. Ghostbusters looks absolutely brutal.

Thanks. It was being a bitch last night.
On the game right before the stream Preston finished the entire right ladder with Stay Puft Mode and got to We came We Saw.
Then for 2 hours the game decided it was going to show what it it made of. lol
But we enjoyed talking with everyone about Expo and the new games that are on the way.
I'll post some photos here later today from Expo.
GCPC who all is representing at HAAG 
? Wife and I are going not bring a game but have room and tickets.... Who will we see there???? 
So guys, besides the TPF, where Is the best place to play some pinball in Houston? Any cool bars with nice pinball action you recommend?
Every time we go to Houston, we pretty much just visit family....but I would like to change that! 
Expo next month the game preserve I think there is a joysticks in Houston I'm sure you can find some games in bars it's Houston
Game preserve
I found a burger sports bar / tap house with 3 modern sterns last fall. Forget the name.
Quoted from PoBoyPinball:GCPC who all is representing at HAAG
PavBall and I for sure. We have put room and tickets as well. 
Quoted from TigerLaw:Made it by Modern here in New York, very briefly.
Nice Photo.
Hope your trip is going well.
I may only be going Saturday guys. I seem to be unable to get somebody to work 4 to midnight on Friday. 
Quoted from Jodester:I may only be going Saturday guys. I seem to be unable to get somebody to work 4 to midnight on Friday.
To HAAG? I think I can hear you getting sick already...
Allen may just make it Saturday night.
He currently has to work Saturday.
We will be there and are bringing a game for the tourney area.
Quoted from Arcade:Nice. Am I sensing a Chris and Tiger podcast in my future?
Haha! No podcast. Had a good night though. Always a good host.
Quoted from Arcade:The Moncla Mafia's latest addition.
Looks great! I'm jealous of you guys and all your finds.
What's everyone up to this weekend?
