Overall quality of games is up there along with a varied selection.

Can speak for MGC but all the games are still on the floor at the end of the show unlike Expo. Games that become damaged are removed to a back tech area to be repaired while a backup game is put in place.

Is there plenty to do on Friday if I do not play in the tournaments? I assume free play is where the action will be for me.

There is a lot to do every day!

Is it worth going on Thursday evening?

Thursday by far is the slowest night of the week, although we are doing a college night special for the students from 5pm close this year which might make it a bit busier.

Also, I see you are coming from Wisconsin. Feel free to bring some New Glarus IPAs for me if you feel so kind. I'll be happy to pay you when you arrive.

Here's a good video from 2013 day 2 showing the lineup.

How about that HUO MM that was sitting in the free play area?

Haha, gotta give you it to ya buddy! I'll be there all week next week, except Saturday night, gotta shoot the Anthrax concert that night.
