Houston Arcade Party - August 15th
As was pre-announced in a different thread, the spousal unit & I will be hosting a barbeque and arcade party August 15th. We are opening it up to the Houston Arcade collecting community, since I have been one of the chief bitchers that we don't do anything socially other than the HAAG Expo.
To get some of the basics out of the way:
1) Yes, I know the Dallas Super auction is that day. It was bad timing on their part. They didn't ask me if it was OK. The party will be in Humble, which is on the north side of Houston, so you can always stop by on your way home and show off your goodies.
2) The party will start at 7 pm, the band will start at 8 pm and will play until midnight (with appropriate breaks).
3) Party munchies, sodas, beer and Margaritas will be available. If you have specific food or beverage desires, feel free to bring them along (please no "recreational substances" other then those legally obtainable from a grocery or liquor store).
4) The grill will be open if you wish to bring and grill your own meaty delights. I am sure tofu is technically grillable, but I wouldn't recommend it.
5) If you are coming from out of town (or you prefer not to drive after partying) there are a number of cheap hotels (and plenty of expensive ones) nearby. We are about 10 minutes from Bush Airport so you can use that as your point of reference.
6) PM me for address and directions, so we don't bore a lot of people with Houston geography lessons.
There had been a suggestion for a swap meet before hand. If there is sufficient interest, I will try to put something together.
Any other questions or suggestions, please PM me.
I look forward to putting some faces and names to some of your KLOV handles.
