So, I'm currently idling in a church parking lot because it's high ground and the roads are under two feet of water. I've already floated once, so imma sit here in my car in drenched clothes surrounded by drenched groceries, watching cars drive in circles.  I'm not sure a  bigger contrast in 24 hours is even possible.

I was genuinely surprised at how easily conversation flowed with people I had only known online.  The venue was nice, Phoenix/Mesa is a remarkably easy city to navigate.  The folks from the forum went way out of their way to accommodate out of town guests and keep us entertained.  Favorite part of the show was being able to stumble around the arcade and constantly find something different to play.  Flashback to the "giant" arcades of my childhood (I'm sure they were much smaller in reality).  Highly recommend getting an Airbnb across the street like we did - it was nice to get an occasional break.  It's apparently impossible to buy too many chicken wings and steaks if your guests are BYOAC members.  Playing Shark Santa on a Vectrex on a porch while sipping my cider might qualify as the nerdiest thing I've ever done.

It will be shipped tomorrow. I genuinely feel badly about that. I brought my suitcase down to the pool to hand out shirts. You were not there. I deliberately took yours out of the suitcase and put it in my carry on bag before going down to the pool so I could get it to you later. I know it is hard to believe but in a drunken haze I forgot I stashed it for you. When I looked for your shirt later I only looked in my suitcase.

So, You are now an official Hemp farmer,   Any specific use you are growing it for?

Not sure if you want to post your full name and address on the internetz though.

Illinois is talking about legalizing recreational marijuana. This gets my foot in the door. CBD hemp sells for a few hundred dollars a pound. Weed sells for a lot more than that.

Malenko and PBJ playing a SFII Arcade 1Up together?! A once in lifetime thing for sure. Meeting you and Opt really was the driving force behind me making this year happen.  You're ok in my book, and you calling me a forum celebrity was hilarious.  It was great to see Lee, Paul, Dave, Andre and everyone else again and breaking "not Scottbot" of ever trying SoCo again was just another highlight. I need to go through my storage box and find that invasion board for Arroyo. I looked it up and apparently its worth $300  lol. The game isnt THAT good

Ginger 2.0 is going up for sale but hopefully Lee returns as a Vendor next year and sells GingerBall kits; I wont even be butthurt if he changes the name.  Funny side note, I ---fouled up beyond all recognition--- up my ankle walking so much that I missed work on Tuesday and I have a right "fat person foot" . Worth it.

It was funny the night I got home from ZapCon I was viewing the latest shows I had on the TIVO and I watched an episode of Last Man Standing and the boss had bought a pinball machine for Outdoor World and the guys get into a pinball grudge match....perfect timing.

Yeah this year was really great. 
It was awesome to meet some of the guys I interact with here on BYOAC.  Some were surprising on how nice and chill they are IRL. I guess I fall in that same category. But it just felt natural to hang-out, joke around and talk shop on games, hardware, etc.

I was happy to finally meet Malenko, after years of conversing with him here and on other sites/social media. And we got him to drink!  (he normally doesn't)

Speaking of drinking, I can't believe MikeA and I polished off 2/3rds of a scotch bottle after finishing the rest of the beer in the fridge! (I solo'd 1/3rd of the bottle the night i arrived). It wasn't bourbon like we planned, but it was just as good.

Hearing Ond's silky singing voice after devouring a couple steaks, while drinking pbj's hooch and 2x 5ths of vodka, was a hilarious point in the trip.  :lol  He's cool dude, and totally fulfilled the picture in my head of him.

Arroyo was pretty hilarious too. Pretty much every time I saw him in the hall he'd flip me the bird.

Great to hang out with Gilrock and nexusmtz around the Robotron machines! Hope I was able to give you some tutoring tips for chasing that high-score!

Yots, TTC, Haruman, thanks again for the hospitality and another fun zapcon! I plan on doing it again next year, I might even drive over a couple cabinets next time.

 :cheers:

Yeah this year was really great. 
It was awesome to meet some of the guys I interact with here on BYOAC.  Some were surprising on how nice and chill they are IRL. I guess I fall in that same category. But it just felt natural to hang-out, joke around and talk shop on games, hardware, etc.

I'm sitting down today and editing all the video I took at ZapCon this year into a kind of mini-highlights reel.  This will be available to BYOAC ZapCon participants only

Errm, some other highlights for this year (since I'm posting this):

-Meeting Mike A for the first time at the airport.

-Listening to pbj's story about some monkey research centre while drinking his hooch.

-Hanging out with neph at his joint.  "Why is everything so bright neph?"

-chatting up some ladies in the pool who were sitting on their large reptilian inflatable pool toy "G'day girls, d’ya think that's a crocodile or an alligator?"

-Post hangover dining with opt2not and TacoTownCharlie and sharing some stories.

-Playing a brand new "Premium Edition" Munsters Pinball.

-Eating Mexican street food with nexusmtz

-Sitting and talking tech with Arroyo and Gilrock

-Chasing Arroyo around ZapCon with my Steadicam while he does "ZapCon tour in 60 seconds"

-Trading crass non-pc jokes with Malenko around the pool

-Raiding the hotel pantry with jawhn

Orange is the new orange....
