 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
Most likely down too. Any idea when you'd wanna do it? I feel like with the holidays around the corner maybe you should consider doing it early next year.

 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
Thanks for the interest guys...I am still trying to work out a date that works for all. Having it sooner than later works for me but my main man Ramos wants to set up a table too . so I gotta work it out with him too.

 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
Agreed on this.
Might I make some recommendations? The Charleston on Bedford is a bit of a shit hole but they give you a free personal pizza pie with every beer you buy. For people who have never been there, or Alligator lounge, I'm shitting you not. Free pizza. And it's really good.
Another good bar I like is the Abbey. It's usually pretty quiet and they got some movie themes every week/weekend? I dunno, it's a good divey place.

Used to love that place though. Grab a couple beers and a couple mini pizzas. For a while you could also pay a buck for toppings and whatnot. Last time I walked by though they had transformed the pizza kitchen into a real kitchen with food for sale. Boo

I think the last time I was there was over the summer for the trivia finals, and they definitely still had pizza. If they don't anymore, what a shame.

 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
They may have brought it back, but there was definitely a time when it was gone. And it sucked.
Anyway, if anyone wants to grab a drink in the area before the Nag lottery, my girlfriend and I are definitely down.

 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
See, this is exactly the kid of stuff I love to hear about. Wish there were more of these great dives around. Free pie + beer (not free of course, but I'll try  )? I am there!!! Count me in for a meet if I make a visit in the new year.

 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
Barcade is like a 20 minute walk from CCM, a little pricey, filled with Hipsters, then again we'll be in Brooklyn so what isn't, and if you want a Budweiser it aint going to happen, strictly for beer nerds, but they do have about 30 arcade games from back in the day.. Games.. http://barcadebrooklyn.com/games-2/

 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
Eh barcade doesn't live up to the hype. Hipster friends drag me there often. Its usually too packed to get near the arcades.

 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
The beer selection at barcade is always great but I'm usually a little disappointed by the game selection. I'm a fan of satellite lounge which is literally a block from CCM and has a bunch of pinball machines. Plus its there's always room because who plays pinball (other than me)?
There are a ton of other places steps away from CCM. Should we nail down a time to pregame?

 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
At this rate it will be packed at the event. so winning the lottery seems like a far shot for anyone. I'm more stoked for the hang out. let's make it a mini trade fest. Throw some vinyl in our backpacks and have some fun.
I like the sound of the pinball place. all we need is a time.

 Re: NYC Toy Monthly
How about 8pm at Satellite Lounge? I forgot to mention they have a $5 shot and a beer combo... Here's the address:
143 Havemeyer St (between 1st St & 2nd St) Brooklyn, NY 11211
Look for the dude with the gf playing pinball. Looking forward to meeting those who I haven't met before.
