It's been a while! The next RFR/Galloping Ghost Arcade hangout will happen on SATURDAY NOVEMBER 23 at the famous Galloping Ghost Arcade on Ogden Ave in Brookfield, Illinois. Our guest-of-honor will be the one and only Eric from Phoenix! Join us at 5:30pm for some gameplay at the world's largest videogame arcade featuring over 1000 individual unique and hard-to-find game cabinets. Admission to the arcade is $25 for all the games you can handle. Then, later in the evening, we'll head across the street to Imperial Oak Brewery for some of their amazing craft beers. Hope you can join us!

My wife works weekends but if I can find someone to watch my daughter I'm definitely going to try to make it. The odds are probably not in my favor though

Scott St. Louis

How awesome is that? Two of my favorite people, Jimmy Mac and Eric From Phoenix together? Unfortunately, I will be stuck in Massachusetts. May the BARFF be with you!

Alex Doud

Awesome! I hope I can make it!

Ian Savage

Hell yeah!! This will be a blast

Tanya S

Wish I could make it out but have prior commitments. MTFBYA!

Turtle Wars

Sounds like a good time, but I already have tickets for Retro Toy Con that weekend.

Peter Beisser

This is tempting. I told my mom we were hanging that weekend. May have to tell her the Wars is calling!

Turtle Wars

There are so many! I’d say my favorites are Galaga, Super Ms. Pac-Man, and Centipede.

Anthony Sorgani

Yeehaw, I’ve been waiting for another one of these!

Marc Richard

Wish I could but commitments that weekend. Have an amazing time folks!

Echo3

I’ll try and make it

Tanya S

Pin Bot pinball was my jam! My friends and I would play for hours at Clairemont Bowl. It’s been decommissioned for a while so I’m going to have to go with Atari Star Wars. Thanks, Eric!

Eric from Phoenix

Yep, Atari Star Wars is a great one and on my personal list. Hard for people to understand how awesome that game was when it came out.

Todd “Suds” Sedlacek

Damn, have a commitment that weekend I can't/probably shouldn't get out of. Going to really miss seeing everyone, especially Eric who I haven't seen in 2 years. Have fun everybody!

Kyle Burress

It's looking like I may be able to make this hangout! As I'll be driving up from indianapolis I will need a place to stay. Any recommendations on a fairly cheap and close place to stay?

Eric from Phoenix

Jim said to check out the Holiday Inn and Best Western on Joliet Road in the Countryside / Hodgkins area. He also, mentioned the very “no frills” Colony Inn motel right across the street from the Ghost. I’m staying a ways away way at the closest Hilton because I’m using points.

Eric from Phoenix

Dude, I was so hopeful to hang with you again. So much fun at ICCC Con. What if you swing to Imperial Oak? After your commitment. Do it, do it now….

Kyle Burress

Sorry you can't make this one Peter. I was looking forward to beer talk with you!

Mike Mulvenna

So my daughter is in a play that night but I might be able to make it to Imperial Oak.

Corey W - Chicago

Was really hoping I'd be able to make this one (still haven't made it in to the Ghost just yet), but next time for sure!
