Yeah, I'm from Quebec... basically where everyone either loves the Habs or the Sens. And I can't stand hockey, it bores me so much :P

Well I won't hold the fact that you don't like Les Habitants against you... or the fact that you are from Quebec :D

I'm currently in Oklahoma. But I grew up in Alaska and Colorado. The avalanche were a big deal when I was growing up.

More than that, I've noticed a bit higher percentage of hockey fans among video game fans. I don't know if the reason is faster pace, niche, or what. But for example, the classic game room people love hockey, Lawnboyspost1975 on youtube is a hockey fan from the UK.

I don't really like hockey either. I got the job at the arena so I could see concerts for free. Then they said "You need to learn to drive the Zamboni."

They tried having a hockey match here once, but it turned into waterpolo.

Yeah, I've ran into a few from OKC around here. I seem to be a lone Tulsan though. OKC has the retro gaming society as well. I remember briefly trying to register on their forums but it is one of those that gets individually approved and mine get lost on the backburner somewhere. Oh well.

Tulsa has some good shops. And shops with good names as well. All your base is outside Tulsa. But is a nice place for modern games if you aren't feeling vintage stock or game Xchange. But we recently got a shop called thrillhouse (simpsons reference I assume) that is absolutely amazing. I frequent that shop a lot. Opening week they had a copy of radiant silvergun. I've seen nomads, 32x, segaCD, master system. And the largest TG16 library I have seen. Keep in mind that until I visited that store I had never seen a TG16, but still, they have a selection. Very reasonable prices for retail as well.

Does OKC have good shops to keep an eye out at.

But to keep it on the hockey talk. OKC got several freakin awesome Edmonton Oilers playing on the farm team during the lockout. They were on the injured reserve or something like that before. So, they were sent to the farm team during the lockout. One of those fortuitous moments in Oklahoma sports. Like when Tulowitzki was playing for the Tulsa Drillers.

Ha...yeah...I help run OKRGS. If you want to register there just let me know. I can approve your request.

We basically have the same shops that you do in Tulsa (with the exception of Thrillhouse, although I have been, and it is awesome).
