Florida has 3 shows every year, first up is APE which is held in (Miami/Ft Lauderdale area) South Florida around the start of the year (February) this caters to both Arcade and Pinball, then there is GAMEWARP, which has just been and gone, this is held in July in Orlando (Central Florida), we cater to both Arcade and Pinball, and we had over 120 machines this last year, and just coming up next month is SPF, which again is held in Orlando (Central Florida) that show is solely Pinball
So as you can see Florida does pretty well for shows, and its a good location, with great weather, other attractions/theme parks
I haven't really followed up much on the forums, the last one I went to was in 2010 if I remember correctly. All I remember was that I went to two of them. Have there been any more since then?
