    Just packed up the game bag. I'll be toting 7 wonders, apples to apples, small world, san juan, kingdoms, and citadels. Most likely going to make it around 6pm, will be arriving directly from work (darn commute)

    Boston Bowl, near JFK/UMass station (Red line) is a good bowling place. Open 24/7. Has Ten Pin, Candlepin, Pool, and an arcade.

    They do a shuttle between the Boston Bowl and JFK/UMass. You need to walk over to the Sheraton next to Boston Bowl to get it back to JFK.

    http://bostonbowl.com/

    Boston Bowl is cool but the reason we X'ed it out early was because of the fact that it is not easy to get to for people from out of town, at all. And it's not too accessible for people to get to easily and back, tbh. Gaming at a dive bar closer to the convention center seemed slightly easier to set up especially with people arriving at different times.

    I heart Boston Bowl... it's one of the only places left in metro Boston to play dancing games <3

    It's slightly unclear are we meeting at Foley's or the hotel?

    I thought the OP and subject was extremely clear of the meetup location?

    So excited! Thanks to everyone bringing games (especially those responding to my Apples to Apples request :D). It looks like I won't be able to bring anything other than Zombie Dice (my Cookie Brigade cookies take up more space than I planned for).
    I have to meet someone at my hotel around 5:45 or 6ish, so I now won't be getting there until about 6:30. See you all there!

    Fingers crossed for parking. I should be able to find something...I remember that area really clears out around 4:30-5pm so if I get there around 6 I hope I can find something easy.

    If you can't find any just jump the curb and lock your e-break up on the sidewalk in front of the bar. But be sure to tell the cops I said it was cool to park there. :)

    OK - if you've got those covered, I'll bring Puerto Rico, Carcassonne, Ticket to Ride, Settlers of Catan, Zombie and Cthulhu dice, and maybe Illuminati or Betrayal at House on the Hill (if anyone is interested in those, let me know and I'll be sure to toss 'em in). . .
