Done, my boys and I will be there. We’re only an hour away but I already have a room next door so we can maximize our time! The boys are pumped up! Wish I had a vehicle big enough to bring some games!

Are they doing free entry if you bring machines? I filled out a game form online but no one has contacted me yet. Want to get my tics ordered soon....

Wow, what a show! Simply awesome in how much they had here! I’d be interested in attendance numbers, I wouldn’t be surprised to hear it jumped substantially, like 3-5x. Heck, even 10x I wouldn’t question.
Quoted from cavalier88z24:glad you asked. My shadow won best of show DMD game plus I got $100 cash. awsome. I think Hilton got one for his restored fireball. If he didn't he should have.
Thx for bringing it! We really enjoyed it!
Quoted from Whysnow:Next year with even more space to fill, we will need more games.
Agreed. I need to get a enclosed trailer with at least 6’ height so I can bring more arcades. I had to lay mine down just to bring it. Of course if it wasn’t in the middle of a dang blizzard coulda brought an open trailer, with all my arcades. Which I coulda sold to buy more pins. 
Quoted from floyd1977:Wow, someone involved with running the show said this to you? As someone who does only bring one game, let me say I appreciate you bringing as many games as you do every year.
Yes, I’ll second that thank you. It’s guys like you that help mgc grow. When I arrived with the uhaul trailer one guy thanked me for the expense of bringing a game, and some other guy-prob the one u dealt with said “ aww you can rent those for next to nothing”. Well thanks buddy. So ya cost of the trailer and extra parking charges was almost $200 to have that guy put me down. I didn’t say nothing, I figured the cost was just my part of helping the show.
Quoted from Tilt:Kinda funny. Because i was the guy that said that i appreciated you spending the money to rent a trailer to bring a game. If im thinking right, you had just one game because that's all that would fit. And yep, someone right next to me said. "they are only 19.99 to rent for a day" and i said something back to them, that 19 a day, times multiple days, is an expense, because of you are only bring one game, you dont get show cash because you use that ticket for your entry.
I appreciate those that take any effort to get games there. What i dont like is the people that live in the cities of shows, like Milwaukee or Chicago for expo, that are to lazy to bring a game, but sure will go play others games. And they are usually the ones that point out the flaws in a game that someone brings
Also, Hiltons Fireball looked awesome, he did a great job.
Small world, wow! And thank you sir. I chose to remember your comment over the other guys and had a great time at the show. I wish I had known you had brought so many games, I woulda shook your hand sir!
