May POPs @ Randy's aka Compran! - May 3rd Reminder Thread
« on: April 21, 2014, 09:55:07 PM »
Hello all!

Location: Oviedo, FL
Date:  Saturday, May 3rd
Time:  3pm - 10pm

This is a reminder for the upcoming May POPS event at my place.  If you haven't done so, please RSVP to both Buck (Rockmang15) AND me (Compran) if you plan to attend.
I want to make sure everyone is comfortable and that there is plenty of food and drinks. 

*** Space is limited and I will only send out my address to the people who RSVP ***  Sorry to be difficult on this, but I only have so much room :-)

See below for information from original thread!

Thanks!
Randy


Location: Oviedo, FL
Date:  Saturday, May 3rd
Time:  3pm - 10pm

I will be providing pizza, my usual mountain of chips/salsa/queso, and soft drinks/water/tea.  Please bring any dessert, snacks, etc. that you may want.
BYOB if so desired :-)

In order for everyone to be comfortable and to get an idea on how much food to get, I kindly ask that anyone wanting to attend please RSVP with Buck (Rockmang15) and Randy (Compran).
Location will be provided through a PM once we get closer to the event.

Plan is to have two tournaments!

1) Tournament of Champions for all the past years winners to claim the Raw Power Cup! (Time and information for this will be sent separately from Buck)
2) Normal tournament play(possible IFPA points...see Buck's thread). Format & Points will be similar to our last event, with minimum of 3 games in the first round

I have both arcade machines and pinballs. For those who have asked, here is my current pinball list:

Party Zone
Dr Dude
Mousin Around
Caveman
Star Trek 25th Anniversary
Star Trek: The Next Generation
RoadShow
Demolition Man
Popeye Saves the Earth
Rocky and Bullwinkle
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Black Knight
Whirlwind
Star Wars (Data East)
Funhouse
Getaway: High Speed 2

randy, where the h3ll did you fit all of those pins? last time i was at your place (it's been years :P), you were an arcade museum right at the front door, featuring a kitchen workshop and a garage wonderland. :)

Thanks to Randy for opening up his place today, was a shear delight to see his place and how its changed over time, every room packed with machines, goodies and credit to you and your wife, the house looks amazing, the details, stuff place on walls, lots of looney toons (now I know why you want a BBBB Pin!!) had a great time seeing everyone, sorry couldnt hang around till late, but after being up at 530am and driving to BFE in south florida to help out with a machine run was pretty beat

and as this event was to celebrate the first champion of champions, myself and Hamster had the pleasure of being at the first POP's event when it started and how its come a long way in a short time, a great line up of venues, collectors, machines, and seems to be a very well run setup, and should encourage the Tampa League that they too can become as great as POPS over time, then combine that with FLIPS and have some amazing mini clubs playing these games, its this passion, love for the hobby that is so great to see, and enjoyed by so many, yes I know its just a pinball tournament, but having the pleasure to visit people, play their collections (especially good when there are vids!)

Great stuff guys! Congrats and well done to Buck for bringing POP's to become what it is today, and thanks again to Randy for today, just wonderful place!!  ;D ;D ;D
