BYOC Illinois/WI Meet?
<< < (3/6) > >>
ErikRuud:
I'm not offended, it's not my show.
DrewKaree:
Superdude, he listed two shows.  Do you mean BOTH are the crappiest show ever ( ::)) or just one?  What is your criteria for defining how crappy a show is?  It's a bit of a drive (1 1/2 - 2 hrs away) and I wanna know if my criteria are the same as yours so I can judge if I should make the drive.  
BeefyD:
I'll have to try to make the St. Charles show... just to experience it...

Wouldn't mind one of those slot machines, either.. :) Do you know if they are skill stop? or reproduction "real" slots? May have to see that show, too...
ErikRuud:
I have never been to either show.

I do know that the slot show at Pheasant Run attracts a ton of people and vendors, because I live on that side of town.  I also know that it is not a good of a show for arcade stuff.  Like I said, i know a guy that does the repro stuff, but I think there is a lot of original stuff too.

I never even notice most of the stuff at the fairgrounds, because I rarely drive by them.
Superdude:
The show at the Pheasant Room is terrible for arcade games.  There are not many arcade games and they overcharge big time.  They sell illegal mame/bootleg setups for outrageous prices.  The few legal games they sell are marked up way too high.  If your looking for other stuff for the basement/rec room, it might not be a bad place to go.  They have lots of other stuff like signs, beer vending machines, antiques.
