Quoted from WeirPinball:

Well....hard to write this, but at this point I think I have to miss the show I was really looking forward to. Hurt my back bad 10 days ago while helping to load 3 pins (sold). Been to the emergency room once, had a doc consult, and have to get an mri and possibly physical therapy - at this point sounds like a long hard road to recovery.
Want to wish the best to the show attendees and really can't say enough good things about the organizers. They have gone all out to ensure this will be a great show. Please take the time to thank them in person.
I won't be there with any of my pins or repairing machines, but will be watching the thread - PLEASE post a sh!tload of photos for me. And lastly - please be careful moving/setting up/tearing down. I am an example of how NOT to end up.
