This will be the first time I get up to any of the pinball shows, so I am looking forward to it. Hope to pick up my AFM PHX decals from Jack James, the pinlift bracket for the Craftsman cycle jack and whatever else that I cannot think of now.
Also looking forward to meeting others on the forum going there.
Has anyone started planning a meet and greet? Or how do you guys usually go about this?

Quoted from bigehrl:You'll recognize me right away. I'll be the guy in the leopard skin bikini briefs, and the pink sombrero.
At that point, you'll have to decide whether to greet me because I'm on pinside, or avoid me cuz I'm nuts.-Jon
I didn't realize that there was a dress code for these things. 
Dan
I'll be there on Saturday....if Philly is still in the PO's by than I'll be the one in a FLYERS jersey and 3 weeks worth of a full grown hockey beard. We will see about that one. This will be my first show as well...looking forward to it and picking up my next pin.
Quoted from spfxted:I'll be there Saturday. Of course I'll be wearing a Hawaiian Shirt. If there is a PA System, maybe someone will make an announcement and all the Pinsiders can meet at, let's say 3pm?
That's a good idea. Any objections out there?
Dan
I'll be there all weekend. Anyone else staying at the Hyatt? Going to bring a pin for the free admission. Dan, how about adding a poll to see what day works better for people. Fri or Sat.

Jon:
if you want to come to dinner, can you bring a change of clothing?
Dan
Was hoping to bump into local Pinsiders there on Saturday, but it's the wife's birthday and I'll need to be back around noon-ish. I'll be there Friday, possibly Friday night.
Hmm ... that reminds me of a poll: Pinball, or Wife?
Tilted Kilt on Lehigh Street. That was the suggestion. Food is pretty good, but you don't go for the food really.... 
I'll be working at the show before hand getting set up and during.
I will be there all day. Getting there around 8:30 to set up Hulk in free play, which will be going home with Pinballerchef. Game needs to stay until 5:30 and I would like to be bringing home a new project with me too so later would be better I think for getting together for food. Jespo will be with me as well
Don't think I will stand out too much. I'm a jeans and white t shirt kinda guy. My tattoo sleeve on my right arm and other tattoos might make me noticeable. Sleeve is graveyard scene and I have a flaming VW logo above it. Flaming dice and deceptions on my left forearm and a stick figure on my left bicep
I think I can spot Ted with all the photos of him with celebrities I see pop up!
Quoted from jackal2001:Tilted Kilt on Lehigh Street
I'll have to look that place up - thanks jackal2001
Quoted from spfxted:Maybe that's where we can all meet...by your Hulk machine!
Sounds good to me
I think they opened one of these titled kilts in CT a week or two ago. I hear it's basicly a hooters with kilts?
Quoted from spfxted:Now wait a minute....they are GIRLS wearing the kilts...right??
Are the kilts if girls wear them or skirts?

ha!
my first good laugh all day. thanks!

Quoted from Blakesell:so are you going to find out the truth behind the legend of the kilts? knickers or no knickers? Better get out the old shoe mirrors...
Sounds like Pee Wee's Pinball Playhouse.
Dan
3pm by the HULK machine sounds good to me. HULK. SMASH.HULK CRUSH.
Thers is a tilted kilt here in bmore....good bar food...great selection of beers...and a variety of babes in their tight, little outfits. Good times abound!
I will be there. I will be bringing the following for sale and free play
South Park
Addams Family
Tales of the Arabian Nights
Funhouse (for cointakers booth)
possibly, also and /or Terminator 2, Big Guns, Stargate
I will be there with my brother in-law and 9 year old son. Stop me and say hi. I love the idea of a PA announcment.
BTW, anyone know how early I can set up in the freeplay area on Friday? I want to give myself enough time to get the machines ready in case of any issues after traveling 4 plus hours.
Quoted from spfxted:You better find meeee!
I'll definitely look you up Ted and anybody else that wants to have a little Pinside Pow Wow.

I don't think you will be able to hear the PA over the crowd and pin noise.

I was told they will be there 7 am Saturday for free play. Not sure about Friday. I'd guess 2 hours prior to show opening? How much for your games? I need to bring something home
Hey guys, yeah I was the one who suggested the Tilted Kilt. I was planning on being there Friday and Saturday. Saturday is kinda up in the air. I kinda need to be in York on Saturday, but I am meeting up with someone that day to take delivery of my SoF. Depending on what time they get there I may have to go to York on Sunday. I was planning on having my SoF at the convention set-up for free play but things didn't work out for me to get it earlier.
So hope to meet some of you guys at some point in time. If Tilted Kilt is ok let me know and I will see if I can set up something or if you guys wanna do something closer.
About a 5-10 minute drive for tilted kilt. I've only been there for lunch but I would expect it to be packed on a Fri-Sat night.
