Hello TPF fans.
We interviewed Ed VanderVeen as part of our latest episode.

He talks about
- TPF origins
- TPF growth
- Getting games in
- Who is going to be there, what they are going to reveal
- How to keep everyone happy

20 minutes in if you want to skip out pinball chitchat

Quoted from mrWol64:

Travelling Brisbane to Auckland to San Francisco and then on to Dallas for TPF 2018 with my wife... first time at TPF and looking forward to it soooo much (we have the countdown going as well ) ... if you see a guy with Pinbot tee shirt and an Aussie accent,.. then guess who,.. Ill be there for Barry Ourslers’ talk for sure and to find out what this next CGC remake will be !!

Lots of aussies coming! At least 6 that I know of

Possibly arriving in Texas on a Thursday. Any suggestions for things to do on a Thursday night in Dallas? Doesn't have to be pinball related!

#790 6 years ago

Sharing a room with a friend @ the embassy suites.
He has let me know that there is a fold out sofa in the room as well.
If anyone wants to sleep on it we can split the room 3 ways. Ends up being $60 a night including taxes and all that jazz. Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. If you to do TPF on the cheap and want all 3 or just the Friday/Saturday let me know!

Quoted from docquest:

If those roo sacs are what they look and sound like they are than it's just the sort of disgusting thing that I need to own.
Will be be selling them at the show? If so can you set one aside for me.

I made a bulk order for people that wanted one on our podcast, guests etc.

I'm happy to get some more if people want, pretty sure they sell them at the airport. Would be about 15 to 20 usd. No profit just helping people be weird, super weird.

And yes they are kangaroo nut sacs. How do you tell they are real? They have no seams

Mine is full of Australian dollar coins that you can win off me if you beat me at a dollar game (easy)

#941 6 years ago
Quoted from Nevus:

I would like a roo ball sack. Can you bring me one to TPF? I can pay you on PayPal if you need it in advance or when you arrive. I’ll get some US dollar coins and we can play some Aussie vs US dollar games. I’ll be at the Pinside meet & greet.
Chris

Cool ill grab one for you. No need to pay in advance. If anyone else wants one just PM me.

I'll be arriving Friday DFW 11:24 am
LTG : )

Hey LTG. I arrived at DFW at 11:13. Im happy to split with you. I have you on Facebook. Ryan Cazz. Cya then!

#1067 6 years ago

At airport now on my way!

I bought some kangaroo jerky so you sick bastards can eat our national animal

Also bought some Vegemite as well so anyone having breakfast at the same time at embassy can experience the world's best toast spread.

Had a blast. Wish I took more photos, there was just so much going on it would have lasted at least another 1~2 days!

Here are some snaps

Me and Bowen and Vegemite. I think Mr Vegemite was the only one looking in the right direction
