Quoted from charliebrown2417:For everyone who is concerned about the short being pink, my father once gave me this advice when asked if it was ok to wear pink,
"Son, those who refuse to wear pink are not comfortable with their masculinity."
so now we're wearing pink shorts too? oh the humanity!

Damn my proofreading!
Quoted from RyanClaytor:Also, Terry seems to have neglected the most important part of the event...the commemorative T-SHIRT!!!
I'm really proud to have been asked (again) to illustrate the shirt for this year's Pinball Life Open House Event!
PBRexplosion15_composite.jpg
Illustration by me, printing by Doug (TrilogyBeer), and T-shirt color chosen as only Terry can choose it!
(What was that Scoregasm tag-line? Making products that almost nobody wants and coloring them such that even fewer will take interest? ...or something like that. LOVE YOU, TERRY!!!)
Yes, that is a unisex shirt. Yes, they're available in Women's Fitted sizes that are ALMOST as sexy as those man-shirts. And YES, they're already available for order:

I'll be at the shin-dig if anyone would like to chat. I'll be the one wrangling a two-year-old boy.
Can't wait,

Yep, the shirts this year are pink.
There is a method to the madness; during our event the pink shirts really stand out, so anyone who needs anything knows to "find a person with a pink shirt". Especially this year as it will be more blurry than usual inside the Pinball Life Dome.

Thunderdome!!!
Quoted from beatmaster:i might buy one when i get there, if the pink is not too bright.
There is nothing subtle about "safety pink". I wore mine loud and proud today as I protected my son from pygmy goats:
On the plus side, everyone at the Grand Rapids Zoo knows about the 2015 Pinball Life Open House. On the down side, goats love pink.
Quoted from RyanClaytor:......goats love pink.
..........and the goats are always right.
Quoted from ViolinSteve:Will there be live music again? Blues guys last year were pretty cool!
Sorry but I didn't ask them to play this year. I'm not sure if Terry has anything planned or not. Flip N Out Pinball (me)sponsored them last year and we decided not to bring them back this year. Sorry maybe we can do it again another time.

You going to be in town for Expo Larry?
Quoted from flipnout1:Yep see you Friday
Hunt me down for your VIP lounge passes.
Quoted from redman822:Thanks for having this event every year, Terry!
YES, YES, YES!!! This is icing on the cake of a great event (and sometimes the icing is the best part of the cake). Soooooo cool of you guys to do this for your customers/fans/friends! Can't say thank you enough, but I'll try when I see you (just keep telling me "OK, I got it. Now leave me alone and go play a game"). Cheers to you, PBL Team! 
Quoted from flipnout1:Yep see you Friday
Larry, Will you be bringing any Kentucky hospitality ? ; )
Quoted from PinballSTAR:Larry, Will you be bringing any Kentucky hospitality ? ; )
I can neither confirm nor deny that Kentucky will be well represented there but I would stop by and see for sure. I hear that this is a good year.
Quoted from belairjoe:2 more weeks until I get my rubber chicken signed by sven!!
good idea! I think I will bring my old "Dr. Paul Bearer" photo & have him sign that lol
This was my highlight of the weekend. After seeing the great items and prices the vendors at expo couldnt offer more. I kind of miss the days when expo had the auction and tons of old parts to paw through. I remember expo 1994 and buying bally displays for $5 with goodtubes etc.
I'll be there. If you see someone drinking an Old Style Beer (with an Old Style shirt) say hello. It is always good to match up a face with a Pinside name.

We're bringing Lexy Lightspeed. Make sure you bring your dollar bills!
Wait - no - it's not what you think... you can play her with one hand.
No, no, that doesn't sound right either.
Better read about it for yourself: http://www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=catalog&parent=355&pg=1

So tempting...

I WILL find you ! ; )
Just a bump to remind everyone of the impending mayhem. Friday, October 16th is closer than you think.
We've worked hard to up the ante this year.
Thanks to all that are bringing games! We are at capacity for this event so we can not accept any more games, sorry.
See you all here!
Terry.

Hey Terry,
Is there any chance you're going to have a Rocky & Bullwinkle there this year?
Looking forward to playing a crapload of pinball.
Make sure you got some gambling money because I plan to take it!
Great job on putting together the party of the year, it's a lot of work. Much appreciated.

This is a great problem to have!

The home of Buona Beef!
Terry, when are you going to list all the other discounts you will have at expo? I am making a shopping list for Centerflank. And if I'm too slow he threatens me with an arm wrestle 
Holy lord, Jay, what is that! I question whether it not it will fit inside Pinball Life headquarters. *LOL* See you at the end of the week. Can't wait to see what madness you've cooked up this year. Your contraptions have consisitantly been among my Expo highlights for the past few years.
Quoted from bangerjay:You the man Terry, the LIONMAN!image.jpg
if it's like in the ripley's believe it or not house (tunnel) it's going to be fun, can't wait to try it out.
