Is anyone else going to the Midwest Gaming Classic this year?  I had so much fun last year I'm pretty stoked about going back.

I wish. Sadly I have no friends interested in classic gaming and It's a bit much of a trip for just myself.

I really want to go, but I have a bachelor party in Vegas in May that might keep me from going.  I'm hoping for a decent tax return this year, because I might be able to do both.

I also wish I could go.  It's the exact same weekend as PAX East this year so, unfortunately, I cannot make it Sad

I also wish I could go. (It is a two hour drive away) I have a wedding to attend in Florida this June so I have to save.

Not sure why this was moved to this forum.  Seemed to fit fine in the other one. :/

I have never been and would love to finally make the trip. I think this might be the year...it'd be great to meet some fellow RFG'ers.

Crap, I haven't gone in recent years.  It's a longer drive and is usually the week before Anime Detour in Minneapolis.  I hate having to ask off two Fridays in a row, so I'm forced to choose.... and I choose costumes.

It also sucks because the gaming crowd usually cleans out Carlson's stock at Mad-Gear imports, and it's slim pickin' with the leftovers.

I'm going! I know I'm new to the community, but I'd love to stop and chat with anyone because sadly I have no classic gaming friends.

Pichu, do you have access to the forums away from your computer?  Like from a smart phone?  If so we can use it while we're there to meetup.

@NES_RULES:  This group: "From the Odyssey to the latest and greatest, this forum is for video game discussions. Consoles, computers, and handhelds - we love them all."

Doesn't really fit here either.  Since it's technically not about video games but a convention it seemed to fit in Idle Chatter as much as anywhere. Tongue

I have an iPod touch, although I don't know if they have free wi-fi or not.

They do at the hotel.  Can't remember if they have a code they give only to guests though.
