SIXTH Annual Pre-Pre-PAX East Game Night - 6:30PM TONIGHT - 4/19/2016

So I've been swamped and totally dropped the ball on getting this info up. It sounds like there's still interest from the locals, so here it goes!

Commencing Copy Pasta:

Like games? Like booze (or not - that's fine too)? Like congregating with your fellow nerds and playing games while consuming booze (or other non-booze beverage)? Over 21? Then do I have an event for YOU!

That's right - it's the fifth annual pre-pre-PAX East Tuesday night gaming gathering (not to be confused with the pre-PAX gaming nights on Thursday)! We will once again be getting together at J. J. Foley's (21 Kingston St. location - there are 2 locations, so make sure you go to the Kingston St. one, or you'll be a sad panda) to play games, drink booze, socialize, and nom. I will be talking to the Foley's team to reserve the back room for us, so there should be plenty of room to game in. Start time is 6:30, but if you get there earlier, nobody will shoot you for it. Just go to the back room, look for your fellow gamers, and start playing something. If you don't see any of them, then grab a drink and wait - we'll be there soon enough. Bring games if you want - if not, others most certainly will, so there will be no shortage of things to play. There will also probably be some handheld gaming going on, so bring your 3DS/Vita/whatever if you want to play. Post if you're bringing a game and I'll keep a list here. Also, bring $$$ to purchase your drinks/food with, and perhaps some extra to donate to Child's Play because I will bring cookies.

Also, if you plan on attending, please post a reply, so we can get a rough headcount to give to the Foley'e team. Feel free to request games when you do.

TL;DR:
* Who: You and your closest PAX gaming friends, if you (and they) are over 21.
* Where: J.J. Foley's at 21 Kingston St.
* When: Tuesday, April 19th, 2016, 6:30PM
* What: Gaming. And drinking, if you're into that sort of thing.
* Why: Because we can. Oh, and it was a lot of fun the last few years. And every month.

Notes:
* The 21 age limit is because this is a bar - they WILL card at the door, so make sure you have the appropriate ID
* They have decent pub food there, but it does cost money (as do the drinks) - plan accordingly. As far as Boston goes, they're not terribly expensive, but make sure you've got some cash.
* As much as your fellow gamers love you, we don't want to have to carry you home, hold your hair back while you yarf, or read about you as a statistic the next day, so plan accordingly - don't drink TOO much, and make sure you have transportation plans to get back to wherever you're staying.
* Reply if you're coming for headcount purposes.
* FaceBook event here.

    Here's a slightly outdated list of the games I have.

    I'll try to bring as many as I can, but let me know if there's anything in particular you'd like to play.

    Not sure I can make tonight, but you do this every month? Does it have a Meetup or Facebook page?

  • RappakRappak Registered User regular
    We used to do it every month.

  • LTAcostaLTAcosta Boston, MARegistered User regular
    Yeah... We used to do it every month, but it sort of fell off after @Khadour left. I'd definitely be down for starting it back up again.

    Our Facebook group is right here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/BostonPAXers/
