    The official Golden State Pinball Festival thread is like a baseball game.
    You have to pay attention or you might get hit with a fastball.

    Any shirts printed up yet? I sure would like to rock a Golden State Pinball Festival at TPF.
    My PAGG shirts were quite the conversation starters at Chicago Expo last year. Of course there seemed to be a lot of PAGG stuff to talk about a few months ago.

    I don’t think any have been made yet.

    Kinda sorta bringing an AC/DC Luci VE to the show. Taking delivery there from Marco.

    #410 6 years ago

    Do they make a pin gulp for that AC/DC that will custom fit a tiki cup?

    Quoted from Vino:

    We've been talking with our charitable partner the Worlds of Wonder Science Museum about 3D printing cub holders. I bet we could make one that would fit a tiki glass!

    #412 6 years ago

    Rooms still available in Lodi and nearby areas.
    Check hotels.png for availability.
    They are going fast.

    Here's some results from hotels.com. 4 of these are within minutes of the venue. El Rancho is next store.

    Cheddar... Just booked my room. El Rancho at $75 night, 2 queen beds and 1 mile from the show. Really stoked to be there with my son (Jason). We usually bring 3-4 pins as well.

    I like where you guys are going with this, but tiki mugs come in many shapes and sizes. Not sure what would be nearest to Universal Fit. And being wide open at the top (unlike beer bottles) they may be prone to splills from nudging. Just my initial thoughts.

    Speaking of drinks, are we allowed to drink wherever we want at this new venue? I'm tempted to make some flaming Volcano Bowls on Sat night. Would anyone be interested in that?

    It is going to blow your mind.
    Stay tuned!

    #420 6 years ago

    #421 6 years ago
    Quoted from shovelhed:

    Will Marcos be a vendor this year?

    All signs point to yes.

    You bring joy to all who know you.

    #422 6 years ago

    Thanks bro.

    #423 6 years ago

    Marcos is not only a proud sponsor of the show, they will also be a vendor.

    #424 6 years ago

    That's It! Cheese! Wine and Pinball. Getting Fancy.

    #425 6 years ago

    I wine a lot about how cheese-y this show is becoming.

    Quoted from Ericpinballfan:

    now you can bring that non pinball friend (seriously who has those?) to the show so they can get wine-hammered!

    Quoted from Cheddar:

    get wine-hammered!

    You rang?

    #429 6 years ago
    Quoted from Blitzburgh99:

    I can’t make the show...but would love one of the Show Posters with the bears to hang in my gameroom. Can anyone help me out and pick one up/send to me? PM if you can lend a hand.

    Still need some help getting a poster....talked to organizers and they don't have the infrastructure to sell them online and ship. This would look great alongside my Dirty Donny Wizards, the Cowboy themed Golden State, Pinsanity, and SF Beer Festival pinball themed posters i have framed in my gameroom....

    #431 6 years ago
    Quoted from Cheddar:

    The user name checks out

    With a name like Cheddar, we had to have cheese.

    #432 6 years ago

    Coming summer 2018 from fox! There's a new team in town with that original flavor Cheddar & Vino. The law is sharp!

    #433 6 years ago

    I just designed myself this t-shirt for the show.

    watermarked_big (resized).jpgwatermarked_big (resized).jpg

    Only after years of moving pins, drinking beer and standing in one place for extended periods of time can you earn a pinball bod. It's a true accomplishment.

    #434 6 years ago

    That beats my “Hookers and Blow” t shirt!

    #435 6 years ago

    Is color dmd going to be a vendor?

    #436 6 years ago
    Quoted from shovelhed:

    Is color dmd going to be a vendor?

    I will find out and report back.
    64 days and counting until Showtime!

    #437 6 years ago

    CDMD is at TPF, if anyone sees him there please encourage him to go to Golden State.

    #438 6 years ago
