Anyone going? I'll be there.

Like the Origins thread, it would be cool to see who can make it, even just a lunch or dinner meet and greet.

We'll be there. The Con is about 20 min. from our house   . Meeting would be cool if just for a few beers or some grub.

Brothers Burnt

Oh, hell, yeah.  I haven't missed one for about a dozen years.

Sadly, there's no time to fit both gaming and collecting, so some good buys are missed at the auction.

We'll be there. It has been 2 years since I last went. Long over due to return.

I'll miss the Hooter & Safehouse nights that we enjoyed in WI.  =(

Hopefully there will be some cool spots nearby the new Convention Center.


[Edit. Sigh. Someday I might learn how to spell.  =)]

The Safehouse was great...before it was discovered by the gaming commuity, that is. Our gaming group first went to Gen Con in 1983 at Wisconsin Parkside. A couple years later it moved to Milwaukee and the city was pretty much a dump. We explored (Wednesday) and found used book stores (which were mostly "adult" bookstores) and the like. The city was pretty shitty. Then we found the Safe House - awesome! A few years later it became gamer infested and that was that...On the plus side, the city was on a huge rebound and other restaurants and bars were opening so the general loss of our secret, and extremely cool, restaurant/bar wasn't such a loss.

I still have a box full of souvenier glasses and pewter beer mugs...much to my wife's complete disdain.

I will try to go. Depends on schedule.

I will be there, I would not mind meating some of you.  Lets get a location and time together.

The DW booth # is 2025, and we're at the west end of the hall, near the open gaming tables and one row over from the autograph line.  For a more exact position, you can look for us on the Exhibitor Hall map at The page you were looking for doesn't exist (404) (the .pdf at http://www.gencon.com/files/Indy04/Exhibit-Hall.pdf is much easier to read, btw).

Hey,

Just wondering if everyone still wants to meet. Saturday afternoon(maybe around 1:00 or 2:00) at Allan's booth? If there is a better time or day for everyone please post.



Restaurants within walking distance:

-Subway

-White Castle

-Shula's(steak house $$$)

-Ram(brewhouse)

-Rock Bottom(brewhouse)

-Alcatraz(brewhouse)

Of coarse there are plently of other restaurants, just can't think of them right now.

Tadashi and I ate dinner at Alcatraz tonight, and it was good/decent.  Neither of us are likely to be able to get away from the booth until after the dealer's hall closes at 6pm....
