Would love to. But it’s a bit of a commute.

It’s like the boy who cried wolf. The time I show up no one will care.

I’m looking forward to the after after after party, but I’ll have to drop my kids off at Sunday School first.

A perfect opportunity to confess your sins committed during the after, and after after, parties.

Don’t go Liz Lemon, there’s still the after after after after after party! I just gotta take my kids to soccer first!

I look to the future because that's where I'm going to spend the rest of my life.

Ain’t no party like a Liz Lemon party, ’cuz a Liz Lemon party is MANDATORY.

I’ll be working the con. I hope I can make it, I really like Iron Horse.

I don’t even know if I’m going to the convention yet. I guess this is extra incentive to go.

Yes, but if you’re at the after-party, we won’t really care if you were at the con. What are we gonna do, critique J.P.’s panel?

was audio or video of last year’s panels ever made available online, do you know?

by Natty Bumppo on Sep 23, 2010 3:18 PM EDT up reply actions  

No. The team understandably isn’t/wasn’t into putting a lot of the content online because it devalues the event itself (i.e. why buy a ticket when you can get the content for free online).

I have to work all day, so I’ll miss the convention. Boozing with a bunch of hockey fans will at least give me something to look forward to.

Any word on whether Iron Horse brought bubble hockey back?

It went away????

by D'ohboy on Sep 23, 2010 3:46 PM EDT up reply actions  

At least temporarily… apparently it wasn’t getting enough use so they replaced it with something. Admittedly, I pretty much only go there during hockey season, so maybe it will return when the Caps return to Seventh Street.

Hopefully they replaced it with a foos table.

That’s just wrong. It’s what people that can’t play foos tell themselves to feel better about their lack of skills. Super Chexx : Foos :: Checkers : Chess.

Lemme guess. You’re the guy that complains that the guy with the long stick in the corner isn’t strong on the puck. Typical foos junkie. No appreciation for the nuances of the game.

Delirium Tremens drinking contest is also a bit of show.

Tequila by itself is out of control.

I’m in if we switch between that and a triple every other beer and my girlfriend is there to wagon me away.

I would just beat you too. Laichitor is pumped that he might finally have a chance to win one without me around.

So awesome. When I heard a couple weeks back that a party was in the works, Iron Horse was the location I was hoping for. Can’t wait.
