The worst thing about Pinfest.....
- Thread starter PAX
- Start date
When the Camden Pale runs out
When it ends for another year
When I can’t keep up with all the young ones and stay up all night drinking 
Classic. I was gonna put this. You can tell which side our bread is buttered on!
All work and no play for me
On the very first night too! Maybe it'll be a bring your own keg event!
Already had a chat with them about this.
it’s in Daventry
When the hotel is full 3 months ahead of time! 
When it’s on august bank holiday and a lot of us can’t get. Pi$$es me off a treat.

Which one?Playing Chris B’s charity games, getting hooked on one and then having the irresistible need to own it, resulting in a call to PH!

is the drive back home, especially when it goes wrong. My minor car issue expanded into a major car issue on the way back (why, or why are no garages at all open in Daventry on a Sunday or on a Saturday evening [and, yes I know the answer to that]). Probably should have just tried to stay an extra night. Made it to the service station north of Birmingham and after a late evening appearance by the AA car was diagnosed with a wheel bearing that was on its last legs, and managed to find a garage in Cannock open on bank holiday Monday that the AA got me to. Still in Cannock now, and awaiting news on if the garage can get a particular part from the main dealer tomorrow or not, but it may be terminal for my car if they don't have it (I really shouldn't have had the radiator replaced the week before, and bit the bullet to change car then). Think I also made a mistake stopping in a hotel here - I could have bought a return train ticket back home instead this afternoon, and then come back if the car does get repaired - hotel full tomorrow which removes an option.
Update : my car did get repaired and I got back home on Tuesday - turns out the part in question was available, just not that day and there was a 50/50 chance mine was OK and when they put the other parts on to find out it was OK after all.
Does every pinball event have a travel tale of woe either to or from it? NERG had the Scottish pinball van failure. At least I can carry everything that was in my car!

The person putting 6 credits on GZ in the reception, hogging the pin I guess for about an hour.
I heard that @roadshow16 was hogging the GZ too but for an entirely legit reason 
“Persons” it was queued up constantly, I considered pulling the fire alarm to get a go on it at one point
I was amazed that there was only the Charity Prem, and my comp Pro GZ brought - considering the amount bought around the community.“Persons” it was queued up constantly, I considered pulling the fire alarm to get a go on it at one point
We had 5 BK2Ks in a line at a previous show,
Followed by 6 AcDcs at the last South Coast Slam.
I think we should aim for 7 GZ's at Pinfest next year.
