Hey!

It looks like Retropalooza 2014 is on! This is in Arlington Texas in September.

Anyone planning on going? Anyone from the east coast planning on going? Interested in Carpooling?

I'll be there. I'm going to be a vendor again this year.  I have a bad habit of buying lots off of Craigslist. This is a good way to unload them and have a good time.

I wish I could go, Texas is just a little too far for me right now.
Get a pic with the Game Chasers while your down there.  ;)
"Happy game hunting!!!"

Dude, load your ass up and head that way. It's like 3.5 hours from OKC.  Leave Saturday morning, get a cheap hotel for a night and drive back Sunday night.

Texas is Midwest?  ??? Go Packers!

I've been surprised at the amount of cool stuff here. I've got various cons going from March to September without leaving the MetroPlex. I'm not going to say I will go to Retropalooza til the time comes. Last year didn't happen. Arlington is SO far on the subway. I have to get on the Trinity rail and that's annoying. Not sure if I want to ride my Motorcycle to a game buying con either. Not a lot of trunk space. But I could always rent a zip car or something....

I'm gonna TRY and make it.

This is my take on Texas too. I enjoy it, hell, I kinda love it here. But it is very different from my home of Boulder CO.

Throwing a pitty party because this is way to far for me to travel :(.

I am hoping with all my heart that the Classic Gaming Expo in Vegas is a go this summer. You can bet I'll be there!

I take offense sir, I do!

I went last year and what it taught me is that too many middle-of-the-road popularity collecting YouTubers live here in Texas, they need to take their sensationalizing of game collecting to some other state  >:( I'll probably go again this year even though there really where only a few interesting things last year.

Thought I might bring this thread back from the great beyond.  :P

Retropalooza 2014 is just over a month away. Anyone else going to be there? 

It looks like it'll be bigger than last year, and last year was a blast. If anyone does make the trek, make sure you hit me up. I'd love to meet some of you cats.
