    I’ll be there! I missed out on my local York show this year due to reasons beyond my control. Really looking forward to the road trip! Hoping to pick up a game as well!

    @chuckwurt, I noticed that online tickets are no longer available. This was a last minute decision for me, and I already made hotel reservations. There’s no limit to tickets sold at the door, right?

    Having a great time here! Lots of really great people to talk with, and the games are all well maintained and play really well. Coming from shows like Allentown's Pinfest, it's nice to not have to wait around in a line to play an Indiana Jones or ToTAN. Also, beer and wine served in the evening? This should be mandatory in all shows moving forward!

    Thanks for welcoming me this year, gentlemen! I hope to swing around next year. The 10 hour drive has been more than worth it. Now... Off to get that 5-way Skyline Chili combo I've been hearing so much about!

    I think I’ve said this before, but Pincinnati 2019 was probably the best pinball show I’ve been to in years. It reminded me of what the White Rose Gameroom Show used to be like before it got crazy big and popular.

    Just marked it in my calendar. I’ll be there. Maybe I’ll even convince myself to haul a game for the 10 hour drive and support the show that way.

    Quoted from chuckwurt:

    And we definitely do not want to get too big. Just keep it simple and small and well run.

    That’s what made it so great! Small, not overwhelming, people respected the games, and the games that people brought seemed to be ones they were proud to show off (like the person who brought that Little Joe and took the time to type out and print a rule sheet and strategy guide). Way cool.

    Seems like the bigger shows are just turning into a giant swap meet where people bring junk games to avoid paying the $20 entrance fee.

    Put my time off from work! I'll be there!

    Going to buy my tickets online. Just so I’m clear, if I wanted to attend the show all 3 days, I’d have to buy a Friday ticket, and a weekend ticket, correct?

    Just booked my room at the Holiday Inn. There aren’t many things I’d drive 10 hours for, but this show is one of them. One of the best I’ve been to. Looking forward to it!

    Does anyone have an original Whirlwind manual and operator handbook in good condition they'd be willing to part with that they could bring to the show for me to purchase? Looking to round out my manual collection. I'll be there friday evening and saturday.

    Thanks!

    Are there videos of the tournament posted anywhere? I'd like to check out some highlights.
