Finally, something close to me!!!! I once had someone on VP Forums tell me that Pennsylvania is part of New England and not too far from Connecticut to drive to a show.

Yep, it's confirmed I am indeed going to be there on Saturday from opening to 7:00. If you see a person wearing a "TILT" T-shirt and a Pinball Arcade cap, that'll be me. :)

I just did a follow up interview with one of the guys running this event. I can tell you that some of the tables making an appearance at Pintastic include:

  • The Hobbit
  • The Big Lebowski
  • Big Bang Bar

I will be there both days.

Looks like they've put together a nice show, but I haven't heard much about it before now. It might try to make it with a few friends.

I will be there all day Friday. Look for the bald guy with the Jersey Jack T-shirt. Looking at the list on Facebook I will have a difficult time figuring out where to start.

For most of Friday I'll most likely be wearing my cable show shirt - Sci Fi Journal (in blue). I'm there both days - would be nice to meet some TPAFers. Msg me here privately and I'll give you my contact info.

Just wanted to iron out some more details:

I'll be attending the show from about 1:30 to 8:30 on Friday, then I'll leave and get a quick dinner. I'll be wearing my brown *TILT* T-shirt that day, so be sure to look for me - I'll likely be hanging out in the free play area or the tourney area if accessible. Contrary to what I said earlier, I won't be attending the Jersey Jack Pinball seminar, solely because I don't show much interest in that company and I'd rather be surprised the day after.

On Saturday, I'll be attending the show from about 9:00 to 7:00, then leave. On this day, however, I will be wearing a grey Stern Pinball T-shirt. I also have the Pingolf tournament and a seminar with Dennis Nordman himself to attend, so you may expect to see me in those places as well. See you guys there! :)

Looking forward to reports. And good luck in the tournament Captain! Pingolf sounds like a lot of fun. Nice selection of tables too!

So I'm sitting here in the lobby at Pintastic,and I gotta tell ya,I'm really looking forward to the next couple of days. There's a Central Park here,as well as a Defender table. A bunch of rarities (for me anyways) as well. There is a Hobbit, a Wrestlemania, and a new Kiss table. Also - Heighway Pinball is here with two Full Throttle tables.

There is a lot more, most of the machines haven't been set up yet. If there is anything more that I see worth talking about,then I'll post later,otherwise it'll be tomorrow.
