    Maybe we'll both be happy.

    #502 4 years ago

    9 Days!!!! We are in the single digit count down.

    #503 4 years ago

    Wow,Leeb18509 is coming from Utah to support our show!! We should appreciate those far away travelers!!!

    #504 4 years ago

    Yep, 3rd year in a row!

    #505 4 years ago

    2nd year for me (Colorado), I'm doing the Friday Fling Thing, see you there.

    #506 4 years ago

    Is there anyone out there willing to park their Aerosmith and/or Metallica at The Flipper Room/Dirty Donny booth? Special bonus for a Pabst Can Crusher!?!

    We will have all of the Donny blacklight prints, a selection of original Donny drawings (Including the original drawing of this years GSPF poster!). It would be rad to have his machines at hand to represent his art.

    I bet he would hump the leg of your machine as a thank you...

    Edit... we have the Metallica secured, thanks Apinplayer

    The city of Lodi in it's wisdom has decided to tear up the street in front of the Lodi Grape Festival during our event. We still have easy ways of getting into the facility but none are as easy as drive to the thing and park!

    I have created a map with instructions. Basically if you are a guest you enter the parking lot on Cherokee St, park and then walk to the main entrance.

    If you are a vendor, bringing games, a volunteer or camping on site you come around the back of the site to the back gate.

    Here is the map and instructions. Let me know if you have questions.

    This is very helpful and kind of you to post in advance. No Chinese fire drill when we get there! Thank you

    we want people inside and playing pinball and buying from our vendors not trying to figure out where to park!

    #511 4 years ago

    I'll be bringing myself (and my wife) from Chicago, if anyone needs anything from here other than my good looks and wonderful attitude, drop me a line.

    #512 4 years ago

    Flash!!!!!!
    Willy Wonka le and woz yellow brick road have been added to the games list!!!!!

    #513 4 years ago

    7 days and a wake up

    You sure you can't fit that Blue Chip in carry on? Love that game.

    Quoted from fireball2:

    I'll have a booth so no room for any pins. Yeah, BC is pretty fun for a dated machine. Simple rules and one main goal: fire the knocker!

    Our 12th Annual GSPF BBQ is taking place Saturday, May 18th at 12:00pm in Camp Silverball (JJ Babich's trailer site; probably the same spot as last year).

    I will plan for a lot of brats, hot dogs, rolls, and buns.

    Please bring your side dish before the 12:00pm start time on Saturday. Last year we only had about 10 side dishes on the table when we started serving, and we served over 200 people!

    We run out of side dishes VERY FAST, so please, please, please consider bringing a food item, even if it means picking something up in the deli department of the grocery store.

    - If you bring something that needs to stay cold, please bring an ice chest.
    - If you bring something that needs a serving utensil, please provide it.
    - If you bring something that you want back, please put your name on it.

    Disclaimer: I am not responsible for items left behind Saturday evening or Sunday, nor am I responsible for broken EZ Ups, or scratched cars that get hit by EZ Ups blowing over in the wind. ; )

    Looking forward to another great year at GSPF!

    Mark (Sparky)

    #518 4 years ago

    Thanks Sparkmaster once again for the bbq! I'm in with a few loaves of home made sourdough bread and butter.

    #519 4 years ago

    And I'll be your Gofer again...

    #520 4 years ago

    I’ll make some garlic mashed potatoes

    I'd say bring some Hot Doug's, but, alas...

    That did remind me. When I bring my EZ Ups, bring the weights/sand bags...

    Superdawg is just down the street, but not sure how it would hold up on the flight.

    Probably not well. Food poisoning would ruin my weekend.

    Now I'm hungry, though.

    #525 4 years ago

    Anyone know if the FAST pinball guys will be in attendance? I'd like to meet & talk to them. Thanks

    Pabst Can Crusher, it would be a long haul but it could happen.

    #542 4 years ago

    Will there be a Cosmic Carnival machine from Suncoast at the show? I don't remember seeing anything, but showcasing Donny's work with him there would seem fitting.

    #543 4 years ago

    Dig this.


    It’s good.

    Unfortunately they won't have one ready for us... we tried and it was close, but no cigar. They gave me some shirts, hats, and trading cards to pass out.

    I have a extra reservation for a king room at the Hampton Inn that I do not need. Arriving Thursday, departing Sunday. $664.84 is the rate quoted total for the nights inclusive of tax. I wanted to pass it along to pinsiders first, but if I don't get a taker by Sunday night I'll cancel the reservation and let it go back to the hotel.

    PM me privately if you want to have me transfer this reservation to you.
