Not sure if this is allowed, so I posted on Craigslist (if it's not allow, please remove). I have some stuff (Snap-on) and gaming consoles for trade. I will be coming from WI tomorrow morning (not a lot of advance notice). If you are interested in anything let me know. I wouldn't mind trading for a pinball, or translites or whatever.
Get to leave work in 15 minutes, go pick up rental cargo van, load up 4 games and hopefully be on the road before 5 pm. Can't wait to get up there.
Quoted from Jackpotjared:Is their a link to standings?

Quoted from tbmi:Will there be anyone there doing board repair/testing? Anyone selling boards (sys 80B)?
Sorry, it does not look like we will have anyone doing board repairs this year at PATZ. However if you bring a game, and it has a minor/medium issue, there are a few experienced guys running around that can help.

Never been to PATZ. Are there signs showing where to go when we get there?
Is AS only in the tournament, or is it in the free play area?

The AS is only in the tournament section. Getting around PATZ is very easy once you arrive. The main entrance to the convention center will have signs. Hope you can come over and play!
Nope, but if you order and pay me at the show I will give a discount and ship for free I have Interactive Undercab kits as well as backbox mods for every Stern made. Some listed on my Pinside shop.

What is your website again?
Website does not have nowhere near everything I make. Click on my Pinside shop for an idea. Newest kit...

Quoted from attitude05:Is anyone bringing any Stern mods to sell?
Ulekstore is also there, and had a few things for stern's from what i saw.
As soon as I get done teaching, I'm racing out of here like a blur.
Can't wait to be there. PaTZ is my favorite show...always have a good time.
Looks like the boys and I will be able to make it tomorrow. We may have to check out Sweetwater's as we have never been there.
Quoted from RCA1:How did I get my initials on BOP 2.0 already?
I'm not even there yet.
I can't believe there's another Rob.
I wonder if that is the BOP 2.0 that was at the Louisville show... I think I put up the 2nd HS.
I always use ACE instead of my initials. I was in Chicago at one of the beercades and got a HS on KISS... There was another ACE already in the high scores. I'd like to think the other ACE came back the next day and was like - what? I don't remember getting my initials up twice! That was the only time I've seen a different ACE as one of the high scores.
Quoted from Bribo13:Hi There,
Wondering if there are many Pins or Video games for sale this year ? last few years there were quite a few.
Just wondering.

Yes, roughly a dozen or so.
Which location of the sweetwater donuts is closest? We want to try them. There are two in the k'zoo. Stadium drive or sprinkle road?
Quoted from KingBW:Which location of the sweetwater donuts is closest? We want to try them. There are two in the k'zoo. Stadium drive or sprinkle road?
Depends a bit on which way you come in, but the Sprinkle Road is probably closest/easiest to get to from the fairgrounds.
-Brian, who will be there tomorrow....
First off, i want to thank Kevin and his awesome crew for putting on another great show, and for all the hard work they've put in. I would also like to thank Dayhuff and all of his Auction Helpers, Marcus, Matt, His wonderful wife SuAnn, and anyone else i might have missed. Also Big thanks to all the people who brought games for us to play, to Abel for bringing Dialed In, and Hobbit, and Tilt for Aerosmith and the other games they brought. Awesome games. Also thanks to the Great crew that handled the tournament. I also personally want to thank everyone for their kind words for my on my Joker Poker, that FiNALLY made it through the weekend, it only had 1 minor issue, i blew the fuse for the coils. Only down for a short time, then right back up. It had over 300 plays on it. Also thanks to the other Vendors, Mr Soda Pop, Pinball Life, Dayhuff, and the others that i don't know by name. I also just want to say, i had a great time, playing a ton of games, and for all the people that i met this weekend. Also the people i have met in the past years, that i was able to catch up with. Can't wait to see you all soon.
Oh, 1 last thing, congrats to the winners of the Show awards, very deserving all of you, and Congrats to the tournament winners.

Quoted from HemiOrange09:Today at PATZ "Spiderman" approved of my upgrades that I did to this SMVE.... Pictures like this makes it the reason why you take machines to shows.
I had a great time at PATZ 2017. Thanks to everyone that puts this show together.

That MIPinballRefinery Spiderman VE with the upgrades was one of the best looking pins in the show. I felt "privileged" to be able to play it. Thanks for bringing it. I was going to take this pin off of my wishlist until I saw and played this one. My wife and I really liked it. I'll be keeping my radar on for one of these.
Quoted from jhozeska:Who owns the Hollywood Heat?
I believe that belongs to Mr. Soda Pop if you are talking about the one in the first row next to the Orbitor 1.
