Be there or be square (or at least as square as an Intellivision pixel from a STIC chip on a CRT). http://www.retrogamingexpo.com/ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Lathe26 Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 PRGE tickets purchased. Hotel booked. Train tickets paid for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+the1hatman Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 PRGE tickets purchased. Hotel booked. Train tickets paid for. I looked into taking a train but sadly there are no stations near my location. Unless someone wants to split a room, I doubt I can afford the airfare for this year's show.

Need to wait another month, or so. But looking in Sept, from Louisville to Portland will be $400-450 round trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+BBWW Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I guess I should book the hotel...sigh...I usually wing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fly or nothing. Hopefully I can figure something out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
