    Quoted from Methos:

    You should have seen Expo a few years ago...it was really on life support. This year was the best (less reveals) that I've seen for some 7+ years.

    That's for sure. I went to most Expo's between 2004-2013 but stopped going because it had gotten so bad. I think in 2013 there were more broken games than working games in the free play room and the selection of games was poor besides Phoebe's games which are always great. It wasn't worth the 2.5 hour drive to go and play an hour or two of pinball.

    I decided to give Expo another shot this year and glad I did! It's a complete 180 now. Awesome selection of rare games and the game quality is way up from where it was. The new Stern/Marco room is awesome and the vibe just seems better overall. Glad to have two great semi local shows (MGC and Expo) again!

    Quoted from Wmsfan-GAP:

    Expo was a good time- thank you to Rob and Co., and everyone else that was involved from the volunteers for setup, vendors, and those that brought games. Met a lot of pinsiders, played a lot of pinball, purchased a lot of parts, picked up a game. The Marco/Stern room was great. I really liked all of the Spanish games that were there. The troubling part of this Expo- Rob B brought what 50-55 games? That represented a large percentage in the free play halls. If he hadn't brought that many, the show would have really been thin on games. Will he be able to do that again- I hope so or the show is gonna need help.

    I'm pretty sure I heard that Rob B brought two semi-trucks full of games and the number was over 100. That's one of the big reason's that the show is improved. Since he is the show organizer I'd have to imagine he'll continue to support the show with this games in the future.
