These two events couldn't be any more different. Carlisle is an outdoor event with 100 acres to spread out. York pinball show is an enclosed space. Two entirely different things. I hope the show goes on, but this is an apples to oranges comparison at best.

Tutoni's downtown for a quality Italian meal, and MexItaly for beer/burritos. Two of the best places in York...fight me!

They had a cow show (yes, cow show) at the Lebanon Fairgrounds, two counties away, last weekend...so I guess large events are still allowed in some form.

Cow show was indoors.

Can confirm...I followed a trailer going there from Maine. Not only was it pretty full, it drew a lot of out of state folks. Knowing PA, there was probably some kind of Ag exemption for the event.

The governor will allow the show to be held as long as everyone buys a meal and carries it around with them all day.

Not much is being enforced at the moment. I know of numerous restaurants in the area packing themselves to the gills with people, and nothing is happening. Doesn't mean it's right, but it is happening.

Two very healthy, active friends have been hospitalized from it, and continue to suffer long term effects from COVID. One is 50 years old, cycled daily and was in great shape. He now needs an inhaler to walk out to his mailbox. My COVID-denier dentist got it, and he is also showing signs of lung damage as well. He isn't denying it any more.

The death number is only half the story. Will you be one of the ones who has permanent health issues as a result of contracting it? We don't know why it affects certain people differently than most. Until we know more, the smart people will not take unnecessary risks. The dumb ones....well, we prove Darwin right again.

Not having the show this year was absolutely the right decision.

If you want to go play pinball in York, drive to Timeline arcade. He just auctioned off several pins and vids on Facebook live last night to help stay afloat.

Marco will not be there.
