Kevin mentioned it earlier in the thread and provided this link:

I don't know if he received enough orders to make them.

I want to give this thread a bump. I saw Kruzman giving props to the show and I'd like to echo that sentiment. I first met Kevin at Pinball Expo back in 2000 or 2001 when he had a booth selling parts. At that time we had a chance to speak as I was at my friend's booth next to him. It didn't take me long to realize that not only does Kevin wear his heart on his sleeve, but he is as good and honest as it gets. Over the years he has helped me when he can and I've looked to do the same. Since I started going to PATZ, I've done my best to get out there each and every year. It is one of my favorite shows due to Kevin, the venue, and people who come to the show. I've always enjoyed socializing and do plenty of that there. If you are the fence about going to the show, do yourself a favor and go. There are some good places to eat in the area as well, how could it get better?

No doubt about Sweetwater's, I have a coffee mug to remind me. And for those that don't want to make decisions on the spot, check this out!

I agree about the perfect dozen. I always grab some to bring home in case anyone from our household didn't join us at the show and to enjoy later. I love maple donuts... mmmmm...

Spiderman Vault. See you there Steve!

For sale at PATZ, set of Cliffy's RBION/Sopranos shooter lane eject and rail guard protectors as seen below. I know the rail guard will work for any late-model Stern, but the shooter lane eject will only fit those two machines per Cliffy. $20 for the set, I will be there on Saturday. Just PM if you are interested. Thanks!

I know Kevin posted this to the PATZ Facebook page a while back, but I wanted to let anyone who is reading the thread and going to PATZ on Saturday if they'd like to pickup a Spirit of Steve Charland poster or print at the show to simply complete the form below as soon as possible. Thanks.

I will bring a copy of my son Christian's game code for The Walking Dead which includes music from the 80's. This is in case anyone would be interested in loading on their machine for people to play. I think he may have made some minor changes, but this video will give you an idea of what to expect.

As always, it was another wonderful show with some great people leading the way starting with Kevin. The 'attitude' of the show has always been so positive and engaging, it makes the experience fun for young and old. Now in regards to the turnout, I was there all-day on Saturday and it looked solid as did the number of machines. I have seen them clear out much quicker in years past.

And I think we know what Kevin and PATZ was up against this year, the stamp show down the hall in the same building! One year is it the reptile show and this year stamps, those are two very tough challenges that PATZ has had to take on.

And I agree, my post was in jest as they are a group of people doing something together.

As you can imagine Phil, people have definitely done worse quoting me.

Were you?
