    Hey everyone, we are making headway with tickets, we are almost half way full. So if you’re on the fence pick up a ticket today so I can let the restaurant know if we are going to fill the table. Sales close tonight.

    There's a day inconsistency. (Wednesday in one spot, Thursday in another.) Just to be completely sure, this is Thursday right?

  • ClannMorganClannMorgan Registered User regular
    It’s Thursday... thought I fixed that.

  • ClannMorganClannMorgan Registered User regular
    There are a few tickets left, closing sales at 4pm.

    Thank you for coming out tonight. The food was great, beers were cold, and dare I say we all possibly made some new friends.

    And with only one day of PAX complete, there is plenty of fun yet to be had.

    Looking forward to next year!
