Happy New Year everyone!  I think it's time for us all to Rise up from our Winter hibernations and Assemble for an Amazing night of drinks, conversation and video games.

 

This time we'll be converging on Barcade in Williamsburg Brooklyn where we can talk about current events (in the super hero world) and future happenings all while enjoying video games from our past.

 

Here's the website for Barcade...

While I've never been to this particular Barcade, I have been to the one in Jersey City which was awesome and have heard from others this one (in Williamsburg) is just as great.

 

Make sure you have plenty of cash for drinks and quarters for games!

 

As usual if you have any questions, answers, comments or limericks don't hesitate to get in touch with me.

 

See ya there!

    I've been to the Barcade before, and can attest that it was everything I could want in a bar or an arcade. Very mellow place with a very comprehensive collection of games (most of which actually work!). I'm definitely looking forward to this!

    @Sam I 100% agree with you. I was taken aback by the one in Jersey City when I got to play the old 80s Star Wars arcade game. Though I remember there being more room in the cockpit.

    Hey everybody. Not sure when I'll get back to my computer today so here's some info for tonight. I'll be there before everyone to try n get us some area to hang in. Also to um test the video games before everyone arrives. Yea that's it, test them. If you need to get in touch with me please text since it'll be hard to hear in the bar. I'll prob have a superman shirt on tonight do look for someone that resembles that handsome chap in my picture. That's all for now. See everyone tonight. 201 370 9

    So, I know this might be short notice, but I was wondering if anyone was going to this from out on the island or queens? I live in Whitestone and if someone could give me a ride that would be soooooo awesome! Let me know.

    Sorry I missed out last night. I got a crummy stomach Saturday morning and just camped out at home. But I played some Arkham City in homage to the group. Sounds like you guys had a good time. See you for Sweet Tooth, courtesy of the Queens Library.
