I feel we've had this discussion multiple times now. No, you really wouldn't.

And that is a sad fact.

I remeber the first time I found out about peadobear. I was at a vendor Confrence in Vancouver and there was an orange Lambo parked out in front of our hotel and the owner had placed a small peadobear sticker on the top left corner of his front window. My buddy saw it and almost pissed himself laughing before he could explain.

Then there was also the mixup where it was confused as one of the Vancouver Olympic mascots.....

Looks like I'll be working a volunteer shift on Sunday to pay my admission.  It sucks to be dead broke, but at least there's a way for me to attend!  I'll be in the "Atari/Nintendo Lounge".  The job description was hilarious.

"The job mainly consists of helping out people that don't know how
to make the cartridges go into the game, reporting any problems to staff
or a tech, and to help make sure that people aren't taking games outside
of the lounge."

I loved the bit about the carts.  :D  Made me laugh.

Volunteering is how I went last year, too.  It was actually a lot of fun, pretty much exponentially increased my pinball knowledge in the 4 hours I was monitoring that section.  Never new how the lock-bar glass interface worked.  Pulling stuck balls I learned that bit REAL fast.  :)

I'm on lounge duty as well, Sunday from 9a-2p.  Yaaay, I'll be completely hungover!

Last year there were a lot of good classics. Someone brought a Robotron and a Star Wars which was cool. Still looks like a great list this year.

My 18 year old son played the Star Wars and was hooked.  I've never seen him get so addicted so quickly.  He played that cab till his wrists got tired from the yoke and his trigger finger gave out.  I was so proud!
