Having worked as a drug counselor for years...I saw "NA"...and...I'm glad that you used the word "hosted" instead of "sponsored"; thought you were on your way to a meeting :P

Well, sonofa bitch, apparently something come up and he just cancelled the whole thing. I waited months to post this and I should have just waited a few more hours.

Really? Hasn't this been a yearly thing, for a while now?

That kinda sucks that he had to up and cancel it though. Of course I wouldn't have been able to make it, I would like to go to that Game Show you guys go to though.

Completely off topic:
Is there going to be that Oklahoma game expo this year?  When and where is it? I might make the trek.

Still off topic: I've noticed a lot of people from Oklahoma on the site and collecting games in general. Whenever I moved here from the Denver/Boulder area I was also kind of amazed at the massive amount of comic shops. People in Oklahoma like to collect old stuff.

Is it in Tulsa or OKC? Either way, it's about 6 hours.  I can make it.  I really want to try one of these expos out.

It's in Tulsa.

On a side note, OK is a great place to collect video games. I'm not into comic books, but I've seen some shops. Texas and Arkansas also have a very nice range of vintage gaming stores. I've heard that Kansas and Missouri also have a lot of collectors. I would venture to guess that it has to do with the availability of disposable income in the center of the country.

Missouri here.  *raises hand*

That, and it also has a lot to do with a profound lack of anything interesting to do.  :P

I'm definitely interested in this OK game expo thingie...  Can someone post some info?  Us VGCers could meet up and unite!   ;D
