We had a great time in Allentown and i was very pleased to meet a lots of maaca members i've never met before. It's always fun to finally put a face on a nick.
Weather was good, beer was good and i found everything i was looking for.
Highlights of the weekend: KFC's Double Down !!! They took the bread out of the sandwich and replaced it with chicken fillets no less ! chicken-cheese-bacon-more cheese-chicken !! Yummy..

That was so funny. I can't believe I managed to set up Vic's Time Warp right in the parking lot! especially after quite a few beers! Some guys even stopped over and joined us to play! Good times!

Nice buy! Looked to be in good shape. I was surprised when it didn't sell at the original price of $450. What did you eventually get it for?

Much less than $450. Game is clean, boards are clean, displays and like new, no broken or missing parts, works 100%(tested for about 3h behind the HoJo, Saturday night .. ahaha).

Congrats. I thought it was a great deal at $450...then it got marked to $400...then $350 I think. And it was working!
Cripes!
Some of the other amazing deals...
Paragon project. Complete with displays, all boards, playfield was pretty nice, all plastics complete. Lost world head. No backglass. $250 I had no room or that would have come home with me. This was the deal of the show IHO. I really, really wanted it.
NGG. Really nice example. Nice playfield, working, some fade on cab. Asking $2,200.
I'm told someone in Montreal got a Street Fighter II for $550. Good deal.
I think a Nightmare on Elm Street went for $700? Something like that.
Deals were there this year. Lots of good prices for machines!
Of course, there was one dealer that had insane prices AND his machines didn't work. Any one want a Gottlieb Atlantis for $1,700? What's that I hear? Crickets?

The trip was amazing...much thanks to Poolman for providing the plush ride with tons of room for all our goodies....four beer neons and a surf board bench all fit in easy. The miricle was nothing broke!! The parties were great, Scott's land of classic Sterns was a dream, thanks to Corey for bleeding classic Stern and letting us hommies tag along!!! The flea market was a land of never ending finds and bargains, my only regret was not pulling the trigger on Pacak's Ice Cold Beer game...but who cares, it gives me somthing to look for. Thanks to Jim for getting us in early Sat to help torture test his IJ, what a blast!!! The parking lot tail gate parties were so good with the super weather...only shorts and tees all weekend till the late hours. Rookies was a howel...being the DD meant the bad karaoke didn't sound as good as the others thought it was....and I can't believe team Canada got beat by a girl in the shooter race, you suck!! The icing on the cake to the weekend was the Hojo's parking lot party, thanks Sparky, Az, and Splitskull for setting up the Time warp....Sparky you owe me a buck Speedy picked some great tunes that night....hence all the shocker hands everywhere STEEL PANTHER RULES!!! The Cointaker crew came out and did some wild road racing with us...Poolman almost rolled off his surf board!! I feel sorry for the hotel maids the room was a disaster...Last but not least the border was a breeze..it pays to be lucky.
It was nice to see all of you on Saturday night and play Vic's Time Warp!! IMHO, the steal of the weekend. And was nice to meet Chris and Melissa from Cointaker. I just contacted them, reoffering advertisement on MAACA. They were really fantastic!
Allentown was a BLAST! It was a real pleasure to meet everyone. Thanks for an amazing experience.

looks like at great time ... I'm going to hae to figure out a way to get back next year!
It is awesome. I hadn't gone since my youngest son was born -- that was 4 years ago. Really glad I made it this year. I had a blast! It was great seeing everyone and chewing the fat. Setting up a purchase for pick up at the show left alot of time to just chat and wander. Still wish I could have fit that $250 project Paragon though.
I Can NEVER Go To That Show... I would spend every cent I have!!
Man, I HAVE to get to that show one of these times!! Sitting here in yet another Snow Storm, Just thought of wearing Shorts all day!!
Thanks for the Pics guys! Really looks like a fun time!! There is NOTHING like that anywhere near here. Well, I guess the NW Pinball show in Seattle, that is only 14 or 15 hours or so... Hmmmm...

I must resist!!!! Yes I know how you would feel. I would take a 24' UHAUL and clear the joint out. You would think we are pin oppressed.

He's been wearing the same outfit for years. Was in the EXACT same clothes when I saw him last year and the year before that!
