    No thanks!

    Between the crappy 40 degree weather, the crappier hotel and my husband being ripped off by Carrida Garrison command along with the overall disorganization of this event I will skip it. I WILL return at some point for Geno's YUM!

    Well I had a good time last year even though Ben Stevens and Phil Wise did rip off everyone by not giving out the promised autographs after all our volunteering for them. But that is simply ammended...never working for them again! I'm going to WWE both days.

    Well actually, some of the ripping off was done by fellow so-called fans...but that's another story.

    RebelGhrl! Welcome to the NE forums as I see you are anew poster...can we persuade you to fo to EFF, (Empire Fan Fest) in New Jersey? It should have some pretty fun and unique events palnned by our RSA...and someone suggested throwing a TFN Forums sock party :D

    I was considering going, but looking at the current guest list I see no one worth going for. No SW Guests or anyone I really care about.

    After the nonsense last year and it overall being disappointing I am not sure I am gonna bother.

    The only one worth seeing really is Kevin Smith again. He's not on the list officially yet but I asked him if he was going to be there at the Jersey Girl premiere a month ago and he said he would be for sure.

    I'm going! Does that not make it worth it for the NJO?! lol. j/k. We were thinking of doing a casual dinner type thing again on Saturday night like last year so that might be fun again. I think it would be nice to have you all down in our neck of the woods. We're getting a table again so if you want to put any NJO flyers out that'd be ok too. :) This time around we've got a nicer set up with a digital photo album we can show at the table and some other interesting stuff as well. Hope to see you all there and at EFF in two weeks!

    Speaking for myself & the president, it's quite a ride for us to go there for a day, when there's no one we want to pay money to see. I'm sure some of the Southern NJO guys will be there. I'll talk to them come meeting time.

    They now have a few SW guests.

    Ailsa Berk
    (Amanaman/Star Wars: Return of the Jedi)
    Richard LeParmentier
    (Admiral Motti/Star Wars: A New Hope)
    Orli Shoshan
    (Shaak Ti/Star Wars: Attack of the Clones)


    Not bad, I have never met Aisla or Orli and Richard is always fun to be around.

    Still highly doubtful for me unless someone plans on driving down for the day and lets me tag along.

    I am probably going to be there, and bringing along some friends from Phatooine as well. Those who hung out with me at EFF, all I can promise is more fun, and no getting lost trying to find dinner!!! [face_laugh]

    Anyone interested in going to dinner on Sat night meet at the Philly Outer Rim table in the dealer's room at the end of the day when the con closes. We'll be going to the Irish Pub again (like last year). Its on Walnut Street in between 11th and 12th streets. Hope to see you there!
