I am certainly planning to show up and annoy people at:

Bargo's in Cincinnati, July 20-22 for some little quasi-bash with a few drunken reprobates
Strigz N Wingz in Streetsboro OH, July 24 to meet and anchor the Fellowship (remembering that anchor can also mean drag down :( )
Mad River Grill in New York, July 25 for some PNKPIG memorial games
Brewster's Pub/Laurel Lanes in Mt. Laurel NJ, sometime during July 27-29

Fair notice that I could also darken the doorway of:

Applebee's on Saratoga in San Jose, July 15
A site or two in the Southwest. This is the most flexible portion of my journey, so I'll leave it as a surprise
Hooters of Bricktown in Oklahoma City, July 18
Any of the sites in Joplin or Springfield MO, July 18 or 19
Sidebar in Atlanta, July 23
Regina's Pizzeria in Allston MA, July 26
Whiskey Republic or Chelo's in Providence RI, July 26
Somewhere in central Toronto, if I happen to voyage that way instead of Montréal, July 30

T-minus 6½ hours to launch :D

Lemme know if Atlanta makes the cut. I haven't been to Sidebar (Dante tells me it is "interesting") but I would do my best to get out.

I do have kids, grandkids, a niece and her two kids and a boyfriend staying with me around that time frame, so my calendar is sketchy at the moment.

I have a three hour layover in Atlanta (6:30 to 9:30 PM), and Sidebar is within a mile of the depot, so I think I could stay for all of SIQ before having to waddle away. Atlanta has possibly the most horrendously overcrowded station in the country now that St. Louis moved out of that old bank, so I'll be glad for any excuse to get the hell away from it for a bit

I would be remiss not to point out that Stewart's Brewing Company in Bear, DE is a short drive or train from Mt. Laurel, NJ. We'd love to see you. Safe journey, in any event!

Wedged in between Songsmith Drive and US40, just off Hwy. 1?

I think it's too far for me to get to efficiently on my own, but if my group ends up anywhere near Wilmington, I'll see if I can persuade them into a meal stop


Anyways, ladies and gentlemen, Pengwn has flown the rookery! See some of you next weekend! 8-)

I know the Coache's Crew would love to have you on your transit from San Jose to OKC. :)

I checked in with my family plans and I will be unable to make it, much to my chagrin. Been here almost a year and you are the first visitng player I've heard about, but grandpa duties come before trivia.

If you can handle the wonderful weather here in the Valley of the Never-ending Sun, you are more than welcome. 8-)

Enjoy your trip. If you have time while in MA and want to make a detour to CT, feel free to stop at Adams Mill. Just give us a heads up.

I think I might be able to make it to Bargo's in Cincinnati, July 20-22 for some little quasi-bash.

Do I have to registed with someone before I go, and is there a hotel within staggering distance from the place?

I might be able to make it to that as well. Where would I sign up?

Home now :)

In the end, I managed to lift my leg at the following

Bargo's in Cincinnati OH. Lots of friendly players there, with a few oddballs from out of town. A really nice weekend-long party, but I don't know if I'd call it a Bash :twisted: I racked up a mere 366 badges on the Saturday, sponging off their answers!!!

Sidebar in Atlanta GA. Narrow place, right in or near downtown. It seems to be one of these white collar hangouts that's only busy during lunch or happy hours. Bring a flashlight if you have trouble seeing in the dark

Stringz and Wingz in Streetsboro OH. Great players, both in skill and hospitality! They even let me have a spot on their Brainbuster board

Wing Warehouse in Northfield OH. BIGDOG was of the opinion that I didn't really want to spend three hours in the Cleveland bus depot, not when there was Great Lakes Christmas brew to be drunk. The man is remarkably perceptive, what can I say? :D

Broadway Station in Queens-Astoria NY. Even narrower than Sidebar, but their tiny kitchen serves up some decent food. A five-man team managed a series of 4th, 1st and 4th places in the East in those Wednesday premiums not named SciFiles

Brewsters Pub in Maple Shade NJ. Just time enough between bowling and dinner for a couple of games and a few two-buck Buds. I managed to squeak into first on their Countdown board (by 12 points) with my buddy Tim's help, but being two white boys, we bombed the Soul Train Playback game. My official excuse for that game score, however, will be I was overly distracted by the sleek, curvy bartendress ;)
