Keep em coming as great way to get feel of show from a distance.
Any em pictures? 50's woodrails?
AFMR? Rumor of course.....
Quoted from Jared:Looking forward to seeing you all this weekend. I am checking into the hotel early tomorrow afternoon. I am always easy to find. TPF, my favorite pinball event of the year.
Why do you activate and deactivate your account at will? Pretty hard to take you serious anymore.

Quoted from InfiniteLives:Haha yeah first time flying with them. Most likely my last. Those seats are just like a metal plank with a small piece of plastic over it hah
Quoted from cooked71:Are those super short legs on that creech? Or is that the point? Or is it the weird angle?
I think it's a BBB
Quoted from centerflank:I do wish I was there so I could spoon Labnip to sleep
again ?
Quoted from Pdxmonkey:I think it's a BBB
Nah, definitely a creech......from an earlier pic.
Great first day! Bring games to TPF and come early. If you like to meet and greet, there is lots of fun to have before the pinball begins. Great time last night with the Pinside crew and the Louisiana delegation at Wild Pitch.
Highlights so far for me.
2 Ghostbusters
2 Big Lebowski
2 Full Throttle plus 7 more in a box for sale on site!
At least one Hobbit. Hopefully more to show up today.
Tons of great people here to hang out with.

Circumstantial evidence makes it seem like he's not working with Stern anymore - if that's true, he's safe/clear to yap on pinside again.
Quoted from t3amaw3s0m3:Does anyone have more details as to the seminars taking place at TPF? The site doesn't say much except for who the speaker is at any given time. I'd like to know what they'll be talking about (most interested in anyone talking about restorations & repairs, the olden days, or R&D matters), and if any of you recommend listening to anyone in particular.
Best I could do with my phone.
Quoted from Concretehardt:I'm looking forward to this thread lighting up like a Christmas tree later today. I am living thru all you pinsiders who are at TPF this weekend! Looking for more feedback on GB & TBL and pics of anything and everything.
Thanks guys!
Whenever I'm not at a show, I think "Man, why don't people post more pictures/reactions/info/stories/etc" -- then, if I go to a show, after it's over I think "Crap, I completely forgot to post pictures/reactions/info/stories/etc". It's so easy to just get wrapped up in being at the show and not post anything - those who do are the real MVPs (to non attendees).
Quoted from nikpinball:Any visual on P3/multimorphic?
update: i think they'll be here around 10am cst.
i should probably get up and go help them unload.
Quoted from labnip:think i missed the free breakfast buffet...
little groggy...
They haven't picked up the food yet, you can make it!
Quoted from benheck:Just touched down in the land of the delta blues in the middle of the pouring rain.

dude, get on over here before we use up all the fun
Quoted from cooked71:Are those super short legs on that creech? Or is that the point? Or is it the weird angle?
They are super short legs..... Not sure if it is because they wanted it to be normal height on the pedestal or of they used the pedestal to make it normal height.
Six of one, half dozen of the other?
Quoted from Law:They haven't picked up the food yet, you can make it!
uhhg.... that means i have to move
walked around inside TPF late last night. this is going to be great, as usual. However, one game jumped out at me. it was stunning. TBL! as i was staring at them (2), Jaap came up and we chatted. He said they will be shipping very soon! good for all you buyers! i was in til my money was suddenly returned. then i thought i should probably wait til i see the code. i will still wait for code, but does the game ever look great!!! the bowling alley looks amazing too.
I'm taking bets on when this thread passes the "official" tpf thread....
Pretty sure labnip could manage that single-handedly.
Quoted from Law:I'm taking bets on when this thread passes the "official" tfp thread....
This is the official thread...
Frax & his better half bailed on us this year
(But I'm just jealous, cause they're playing it big in Vegas, baby!)
Quoted from centerflank:I do wish I was there so I could spoon Labnip to sleep
I took care of it for you. And I wish you were here too...you can spoon me anytime, big boy.
Quoted from labnip:Speaking of people with better halves
Beez & his should stay at the main hotel next year
Thanks for mentioning it. I booked early enough to do that, but I'm really a quiet guy and can only take crowds and noise for so long. One of my biggest pet peeves is people stumbling loudly down a hotel hallway in the middle of the night waking me up. I'm grumpy enough without the added sleep deprivation. I'm at the Homewood Suites a half-mile walk away...but we'll stay at the show tonight as late as us old folk can take it.
Thanks again for your Texas hospitality last night!
Quoted from beelzeboob:I took care of it for you. And I wish you were here too...you can spoon me anytime, big boy.
Boob you sure your at the right show?
After cranking the vol up & testing out GOTLE yesterday...
I woke up with that theme song playing in my head.
Good thing I totally dig that song.
Of all the shows, that's one where I actually enjoy watching & listening to the intro before it starts, instead of fast forwarding.
