May 28th Ballers Night

Post by ralphwiggum »

The less musically talented of the Siedler brothers is hosting in May. Lodi is our location. I will be sending a Calendar event out shortly. Please email me, respond to the invite, or respond in this thread with your RSVP.

We have room for 20 at this event.
Mark (or I) will post in the detailed information section with all of the nights notes.

Thanks Mark!

Game list will be posted soon. And I used to play the bagpipes so that counts for something right? I"ll work on leaning Subdivisions on them so I can match Andy's skill level.

:lol:

Looks like most of my weekends are open in May, so should be able to make it; whenever Mark decides on a date :P

Darn, I can't make it that weekend. Our office electrical blew up some months ago, and our building crew picked Memorial Day weekend to finally make the repairs.

Have a great time, guys!

Would this be an event that I could possibly be invited to? I know Tullster and PaulyB could vouch for me. PaulyB has never met me, but we have corresponded a fair amount and Steve has met me on multiple occasions. I read through the details on this and although Id eventually love to be invited into my local league next year, I was hoping to have some fun at pinball meet ups this year.
Thanks again for any details, etc.

No invitation needed, we will take anyone's money... :) I guarantee you will have fun at Ballers..... It isn't overly serious, and there are always a variety of different folks that just enjoy hanging out and playing. PM me your first and last name (Just your last initial is fine, but we have other Matts that attend, so I need to keep track who is who) and your email address and I will get you added to the monthly communication list and calendar invite.

Hi Matt >> Just saw this. I assume you are talking about MadCity Flippers which is the local Madison based league. MCF is not really an "invite" sort of thing. Pretty sure you just need to reach out to some of the board of directors and request to be put on the waitlist. I think the current board includes Steve Tully, Mike S, Tim E, Sean S, and Mark S. Those guys should be able to give you any info you need on what it takes to join or be a host for future years (Season runs on the calendar year). Pretty sure they give preference to hosts but honestly not sure on the details on bringing in new members.

Definately check out Ballers league as it can be super fun and very low key.

If you want to scratch your pinball itch then please stop on out at one/all of the Madison Pinball monthly events (1st Thursday at Alt Brew, 2nd Wed at Pooleys, and 3rd Sat at Schwoeglers). Great way to meetmore locals and play some casual but competitive games.

Thanks a lot for the info! I appreciate it all and will reach out to Steve and others to see if I can get on the waiting list!
