Premature?

I think you need to start planning even earlier with us CASK'ers...

The timing of the topic seems about right. I think it's safe to assume we will all be there though as long as its not the same weekend as nycc.

<<< can't wait, gonna have to come up for more than 24 hours on this one and the best part is I won't have to deal with lolapalooza people this time

yep... plenty of time to plan for this one. i'm in, provided we're not on vacation or something. (that will be the week before
our first anniversary, so m may have some say in my availability. =p)

Pretty surprised that we haven't seen or heard much about this yet. It's in a week and a half.

Who all is coming? We gonna do a lunch trade like last time? Me and Ultra found an awesome German restaurant, but they will probably have sport balls on, so it will be hard to talk. I'm sure we can find somewhere to eat. Who all is lining up early?

I'm lining up, what time is everyone planning on heading down?

who will be camping out the night before?

Im camping out, i dont have a lot of coin to spare, so Im making sure I can get the one thing i want.


Its gonna be fun!

No camping out for me, but I will be there after I wake up, have my morning sabbatical and what have you. Plenty of time for lunch and stuff.

Sorry for double posting, They posted the list of who all is gonna be at Toy Karma on the website.

No Paul kaiju? That's odd.

I'm planning to be there bright and early Saturday morning, and then just stay out in the area. I am definitely up for a lunch after grabbing tickets.

I'm so bummed I don't live there anymore

Not really excited about this years lineup. Probably won't be driving down for the show.

I will be in town Friday and am totally down for lunch and hang outs after line tickets I will be hitting the Shedd on Friday if anyone wants to tag along!

^ The show is on Saturday, October 5th. So I am assuming (and hoping) that the line tickets will be given out Saturday morning? I have to call Roto and ask.

I also would love to go to the aquarium on Friday, but I'm working and won't be able to get there until after the Shedd closes for the night. I am considering going to the Sedd on Saturday after I get a line ticket.

I can get you all in for free to the art institute. LMK if you're interested in that touristy stuff.

I'm known to give good tours.

OK, so me and Ultra have been talking and here is what we came up with. Meet at Roto for tickets and who have you. At around Noon we'll head up to Smoque BBQ, aka the dopest BBQ in Chicago. We'll hang around and goof off, and then I'm down for whatever. For Dinner there is a german place that has Pretzels that cannot be missed. If anyone has an idea on how to fill in the meantime I'm down. There's 2 barcades in the area, unless if someone is just totally against drinking. We can also have a trade fest, or bring little doo dad's for white elephants. My main goal is to have fun, so if your not on board for that, well I feel sorry for you.

But what if we're up for fun, but we're nowhere near Chicago?

Totally jealous of you guys getting to meet up and have rad shows to go to and a really good store to visit!

Seconded ^^

hmmmm, do they have like a party bus between Florida and New Mexico you guys could ride up to Chicago on? And then pig out and play with toys and then go home no muss no fuss? That's like 24 hour fun non stop.

That does sound exhilarating.

Sounds like fun. I'm in for a decent BBQ.

i'm totes in.
hi... i'm alive.

surprise!
