OK, in just a little over two hours, me and the wife will be making the drive from MI to NJ to see the Kong Off. First big trip for something arcade related (Except long drives for games) and not real sure what I want out of it. I think its just a way for me and the wife to spend some time together and have some fun I guess.
Who else is driving and from how far away?

my wife and I are driving up from Maryland. I'm not sure what to expect either but I think it'll be a good time! We need KLOV nametags so we know who is a member up there! Have a safe trip
 
I am heading up from Herndon VA tomorrow with Jay(another klover that does not post much). I will be in the area early that afternoon and will need to kill some time before the flash back Friday. Can anybody recommend a good pub near knucklez (preferably with pins and arcade games)?

Name tags would be great, but maybe we should set aside a time for the klov meet at the event?

Thirsty's is ok. It's on Rt 202. I think they have a GT, Neo-Geo and a pool table.

thats a good idea for the meet and greet. I should be there by noon on Saturday.

We should have worked out some car pools. I wanted to go but didn't want to drive myself. I'm in South Bend, IN real close to you Rob.

Start thinking about going to the Big Bang this August in Ottumwa...

I would have shared the gas costs with you. We will have to keep in touch from now on
 
Looking forward to all of you klover's reports on the event. I won't be going. With two young kids in the house it's still too hard to get away. Sounds like a fun time.
 
OK, this is the story so far. Billy is already at his machine warming up. Hank got in a little after us and is starting to get the feel of his. Steve will not be in till late tonight and Richie is picking him up. Got a chance to meet Eric Howard and his girl....(very nice folks and I hope I get to have a drink with them). Meeting some real nice people and will be adding more after the Saturday kick off.

Thanks for the updates!

Why did they put Billy furthest away from the camera???:D
 
Last night was a great kick off. I hung out with Bill, the Missle Command champ and Jeremy the director of High Score. I really enjoyed playing Journey in Richie's arcade and the Dr Kong movie made want to root for Billy in the kong off. If you guys want to meet today I am wearing a green Centipede shirt.

Who all is going on Sunday? Steve W. was going to ride back to the hotel with us after the party tonight, but he wanted to stay a little later to sign stuff for people and I wanted to get some sleep. Oh well, Sunday is another day.......

I may come by tomorrow. I was wearing the Whalers shirt earlier today.. Definitely an awsome event. Hopefully I will get a marquee at some point. :)
