I’m surprised this hasn’t been discussed yet. Then again, with Mike’s absence for 3 weeks, it kinda makes sense.

So…. Who’s going?
Do we want to do a Wizard dinner one evening after the expo?

I’ll be in town all week and want a dinner but don’t care which day.

See ya in 2 weeks!

I'll be there. Happy to do a dinner. I have every evening free at this point.

I arrive on the 10th but assume most people will be leaving around then so I don't think I will make this one.

Since a different G2E thread got a response that probably should have been in this thread, I figured a thread bump was due.

I still have no preference of day, but I know that Angel is also interested and told him to watch this thread. He’s a mutual friend of Mike and mine, but not a WoV member. Or doesn’t post much.

It’s the effort that counts. 🤪


Ok. Another thread bump as I sit wondering if it’s just gonna be Mike and me. Not that I wouldn’t mind a private audience with his greatness. 👍

I think the days of large turnouts are over. I wouldn't mind being proven wrong.

What was the largest turnout? I probably remember about 20 people.

I don't know which were official WOV events or just get-togethers but fifteen to 25 seems right for the ones I
attended. People move on, and the wheel keeps spinning.

I waited to reply so I can use it as a thread bump. 🤪

But seriously, who is going to G2E? Gotta assume that members that are going to G2E would also enjoy a dinner with the Wizard.

For what it’s worth, you can attend any only get (and pay for) a soda, if that’s what you wanna do.

Dinners often include waitress trivia followed by group gambling.

Attendees? I think around 10 would be great.

Well, we usually do Tuesday or Wednesday since those are the days that the expo ends at 5:00. (Monday is education only. Thursday ends at 3:00.)

So based on the above replies, let’s do it Tuesday evening. Time (5:30?) and location to be announced. If Mike wants to pick a place, that would be fine.

FYI. One tab but everyone kicks in their share plus tax & tip.

In other news, while walking the jetway from the gate to the plane, two guys behind were talking. One said he’s going to a gaming show, etc. 👂

Before we even got to the plane, I gave him my card and my elevator speech for both games. 👍
