I’m sorry but the Expo banquet left a bad taste in my mouth.

Decent food, great keynote, awards for lots of people and good deeds. At the end of the event the closing went something like this:

“Good night everyone…oh and the award for the best exhibitor Big Lewbowski Pinball” (I think).

Then nothing as everyone was leaving. I also noticed that for some reason Dutch Pinball (not Big Lewbowski Pinball) is missing from the exhibitors list.

Did they not pay their fee? I can only think that Expo knows who butters their bread. Maybe the constant crowds gathered around a non-Chicago pinball company exhibit wasn’t sitting well with the Chicago pinball Mafioso.

Also surprising, no link to the Jersey Jack Pinball web site in the exhibitor list. I guess Jack hasn’t gotten around to putting together a web site.

Is there any tape from last night? I really did miss the whole ending thing.

Oh. I didn't realize they got a new URL.

Quoted from nikpinball:

Jersey jack had a new site go live friday night during the event, so it may explain not having it.

OK. Fair enough. Here is the info:

Dutch Pinball

Quoted from mikepin:

The reason Dutch pinball was missing is they never sent a form of any kind with any info ..and i was uncertain of what they were doing

Sorry, that was a spell check error. I meant to say family.

Quoted from Mfox:

I don't know what would warrant the Chicago Mafioso comment since Expo is run by people who don't live in Chicago nor even the state, nor even the surrounding states for that matter.
