Quoted from Irishbastard:

Have stayed in the Comfort Suites and Holiday Inn that are next to each other, both good (Prefer Comfort as it's nicer) but both have been booked for a while. Try TripAdvisor to check out the others, I did, one was a sh#t hole from reviews, but forgot which one it was.
Probably would not advise anything close to the show after noticing the Gun Shot detection units mounted in the telephone poles nearby

Quoted from sbmania:

Trying to decide what to bring to Allentown for sale. Only so much room! Anyone have any interest in the following:
Capcom Pinball Magic excellent condition- $4200

Quoted from spfxted:

Is Waterworld worth a grand?

Quoted from Guinnesstime:

Should we have a dedicated time/show Pinside meetup spot on Friday?

Quoted from PoMC:

The bartop jukebox has been sold. I'm going to try to get another one or two ready for the other people who expressed interest and will reply to those PMs.
Thanks.

Quoted from Pinphila:

I should have the following at pinfest
Chicago Coin Blue Max - $350

Quoted from bluespin:

So being trapped indoors playing pinball with your friends for three days is a bad thing?

Quoted from beelzeboob:

God's formula for the last two years: Rain+Wind=Allentown

Quoted from beelzeboob:

I just hate being captive inside. For me, half of the fun is hanging out outside for a bit, going to the farmer's market without getting soaked, and Mark and Brent's epic Booze-B-Que under a tent in the flea market.
The show's still great, rain or shine, but it takes something away...for me, at least.

Quoted from beelzeboob:

I'll hold him down.

Quoted from beelzeboob:

Nope.
Yzfguy had an entire conversation with me two years ago and didn't realize it was me until I was back home, safely protected by my computer keyboard.

Quoted from Colsond3:

That was my tech's Transit...LOL (see post 1274 way back on some page). He changed the decals around a little (because that's way more important than helping me get things ready for the show)...bastard. Thanks again Jeff for bringing Frank down...can't wait to rock that thing. I might even grab it out of the truck and set it up inside tomorrow. Let me know what you think of that Convolux once you throw it on MM.
Met a lot of cool Pinsiders today...including beelzeboob and yzfguy. What a friggin trip you guys are man. We need to party next time and get lit up...would be even more comical. Even ran into Crazy Levi and ended up doing a few shots of hardcore scotch with him...if you can f@#$in believe that. Back to battling his ass with my keyboard come Monday though.
Caught up with a bunch of you that I had already met previously...always good. For anybody coming tomorrow, swing by the Lights Out Pinball booth and say hi...or give me the finger, whichever you prefer.

Quoted from beelzeboob:

Yeah. Blame yourself. You didn't say hi to me.

Quoted from Gatecrasher:

I got a lot of comments on my badge.
I tried to be a forum "uniter".
Check it out. Custom neck band and everything.

I have to admit though that I didn't see very many other attendees with badges on. I saw a couple but not as many as I thought I would.

Quoted from mbott1701:

Yeah, me too, picked up a set myself.
