Penny Arcade Expo
« on: August 28, 2008, 12:34:50 AM »
So this weekend I will be attending my first gaming convention here in Seattle. I am excited to see the different panel, games and general goings on of the con. Should be a lot of fun. Giant Bomb will be hosting a panel, Blizzard has a booth and loads of (hopefully geeky) girls.

My friend went to that. He summed up the experience in these five words:
"Thirty-Minute-Wait-For-Subway"

Lol, too true, but the combination of Giant Bomb, Wil Wheaton, numerous other panels and the expo hall more then makes up for a wait in line to get some food, especially when those others are fellow geeks talking about then same geeky things as you.
