January 2023 - Donovan and Katie (Fond du Lac)

For some a monthly donation, for others, it rubs the lotion on the skin.

6. +1 (maybe?)

Thanks for hosting Donovan & Katie! Unfortunately, I've got to work that day and can't attend.

Jason, It wouldn't hurt to send out an e-mail blast to let people know that Ballers is still a thing that we're all hoping to get going again. I know I miss attending. Great group of people.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again. As a side game, we are going to see if anyone can tell the difference between the new soda and the old soda that we still have from 2020 the last time we hosted Ballers. lol JK

I think I have a better chance at the pinball side game than that. I'll drink your old stuff, I can't tell the difference!

Sent out a group text to the people that signed up. Looks like we'll be getting a bunch of snow, and the area is under warnings and advisories. I talked with Donovan, he's still going to run the event with whoever shows; but if you're not comfortable with the weather it's not a problem to cancel. It's understandable given the weather situation.

I'm looking forward to see Katie and Donovan's collection and catching up with some fellow pinheads.

Big thanks to Katie and Donovan for opening their home last night. We had a small group, but I enjoyed the conversation and pinball. It is unfortunate that the weather didn't allow for more people to attend.

If people are OK making the trip to Oshkosh, I'd be willing to host a ballers night at my place; we'll just need to figure out a date.

Yes, even though it was a small group, we really enjoyed it; the company and the games.
We are pretty open most weekends, so we look forward to the next time anyone can host!
