Dave F.

Hi Ford and Dave,
Guess we should consider some dates. What do you think is better July or August ?????? Saturday or Sunday ????? Time????? I am pretty much open to anything.
Denny
-
I'm open to anything. Don't know dates off hand but I have 2 reunions I have to attend. Will have to see if I can find dates.
UPDATE: Any date except July 25 & 26 and Aug. 8 & 9.
-
I should be there as well...
-
That makes 4 so far. I'm counting on Bill to be there.
A BIG thanks to Denny !!!! :thank_you:
-
Let's do it boys. Maybe we can get our heads together and work on changing one ancient f--ked up law in PA. Like we did in 2000 with House Bill 2466. For all you guys that don't know all of us slot guys in PA. got together and wrote and stopped in to our congressmen and state reps. to try and get the PA. law changed from Pre. 1941 to a 25 year law. And it did work with enough work and support. Maybe we can work on a anything legal change like our surrounding states. Just a thought. Shit it's a start. Count me in. Fuckin July and August, turn up the AC. Bill.
-
Sounds good Bill. But don't worry about AC just bring your swimsuit and jump in the pool. Oh, and bring your wife or girlfriend.....BUT NOT BOTH ! :24: :rotfl: !!
-
Well mom and I talked about it today.....then I checked with
Siri my plastic secretary. It's 1208 miles from here to there :duh: :no: , yeah not gonna happen. I will attend in thought only. You guys have a great time. And have one for old Shaggy while you're there. :cool_thumb_up:
-
Well, I thought it over and the only solution is.................between now and July you have to move to PA. :EmoticonHelp4: Oh, well, thanks for the good wishes and maybe someday....well, who knows ?? :Scratch-Head:
-
Yes indeed, probably not moving. But hopefully someday. Have a good time, think of us as we will you!
Dave
-
Map Quest says its a 3 hour motorcycle ride for me. Good weather please.
Ra
-
Well, we would love to have you and your bike !! :wave:
-
Thank you Denny. Perhaps Bill will ride his Hog also. Please keep me posted.
Ra
-
This is starting to look like good turn out. Talked to John (Rudy's), he's going to come.
-
sounds like a hoot. i'll bite
-
Hey, well with wives looks like about 15 to 20 so far. Anybody have any dates in mind, guess we should be looking for time that suits everybody. Ideas ??? Please !!!! :thank_you:
-
How about noon to 1:00? Just a suggestion. I think we should all chip in to cover your expense.
-
Hey, how about August 22nd ... 11 AM until whenever ????? Come and go as you like. It should be hot enough to go in the pool (bring your suits) and cool enough to sit poolside in the gazebo (bring your shorts). I'll be happy to supply the dogs and burgers and potato and mac salad and chips, pretzels and snacks and sodas. I'm not good at desserts so they would be appreciated. Other than that, I got it covered. Please feel free to suggest other dates and times that you are comfortable with !!!!!!! :applause: :dancing_2: Party Time !! :Crazy: Thanks,
-
Any other dates or times ideas ???? Anybody ???? :Scratch-Head: :Scratch-Head:
-
Sounds good to me. Ford :shitfan:
-
If I was on the east coast I would love to meet fellow slot enthusiasts! Sounds like fun!
-
Well, you just have to plan an East Coast vacation in August ! Everybody's welcome ! :applause:
-
I work on Saturdays until 2 PM so I will put it in the wind after 2 and get there as soon as I can.
Dave F
-
That won't be a problem, Dave. I expect to have the grill going all day, so you won't miss eating and a Giant is close by so I can always get more. ! :dancing_2: You're not that far away ?? So, hope it won't take you too long to get here.
-
Wouldnt take too long if I still had that 60 Panhead, but I will be on 4 wheels. Excited about meeting everyone.
Dave
-
Could I get a zips code to look on line to see how long of a trip I'd have from up here in Michigan.. Might be shorter to cut thru Canada.. Hop on the ferry about a mile from my house here in town and cross the St Clair river I'm in Canada.. Sure think it would be faster then going South on I-75 to Ohio and turning East for who knows how far... Heck might even be able to afford the gas if prices don't climb back up too high..
Gary
-
Well Gary, zip code is 19465 and my in-laws live in Saginaw, MI so I can tell you it's a pretty good shot. It's usually about 10 to 11 hours for me, but don't let that discourage you. I always thought it was a nice trip, scenery-wise. Good luck !
-
I have high hopes of making the trip. Only 3 hours for me. I've gone farther to pick up a machine.
-
That's great Jim, looking forward to meeting you. I'll dig out all my Elvis records :dancing_2: :dancing_2: :thank_you: very much !
-
A true Elvis fan wouldn't have to dig them out. They would be out all year round. haha
-
Yeah, they are on my 45 RPM jukebox and my CD Jukebox, so always available. Guess we are just a couple of "Oldies" lovers. :Crazy:
-
Us boy's and our toy's. I have 5 Seeburgs in my gameroom. A C, 201, VL, J, and a Trashcan
-
WHOA ! You are way ahead of me. :hail: [/size]I have a AMI/Rowe 100C CD Jukebox and a 1982 AMI/Rowe R86 45 RPM Jukebox. You'll have to bring pictures of your stuff with you to the get together in August.
-
Hey stayouttadabunker, you gonna make it to Pottstown in August ?? Let's see Malone, NY to Pottstown, PA ....... Hey a quick 7 hours :duh: :duh: and you're here ! Ahh, what the heck, give it a shot !
-
I'll keep an eye out on this thread and see what's happening around that time!
I'm a golfer so August is crazy for me...haha!
-
Well Mark, you can't play golf here but...................you can bring your swimming suit and play in our "water hazard" :dancing_2:
-
Denny, looks like you might have good turnout. :cheerleader: :cheerleader: :cheerleader: :cheerleader: :cheerleader:
-
Hey Ford, you had a very good idea for a get together. I'm just happy to play "host". I think it is pretty cool, for as many as possible, to get to know some of the people they have been working with and having fun with on the site and enjoying their hobby while learning and helping others. I hope it goes well and everybody has fun and is able to put a face to a name. :applause:
-
i think people were ready for something like this. This will be better then meeting @ a show. Thanks again.
-
So, is August 22 the date. Want to put it on the Calendar.
-
Hey Jim (Elvis) and everyone ... looks good for August 22nd ... 11 AM until whenever ????? Come and go as you like. It should be hot enough to go in the pool (bring your suits) and cool enough to sit poolside in the gazebo (bring your shorts and folding chairs, please). I'll be happy to supply the dogs and burgers and potato and mac salad and chips, pretzels and snacks and sodas. If you have a favorite dish or dessert that you would like to bring that would be appreciated. Other than that, I got it covered :applause: :dancing_2: Party Time !! :Crazy: Thanks,
Oh by the way, the pool is ready for you guys to jump in ....... :24: :rotfl: :Crazy:

-
This will be great ... looking forward to the pool too. But I will need to go and get a new thong since I have lost 110 lbs, it doesnt fit any more. I might not even get one just in case some of you bring children, I would hate to scare them.
Dave F
-
Oh, Oh Dave. You might scare everybody ! :rotfl: Aw, go ahead and bring your "thong" I will post plenty of pictures here and everyone will get a chance to approve ! (or not) :lol:
-
I get the feeling it will be disaproved a long time before the day of the event..... :I_agree_1:
Am lookng forward to just meeting and hanging out with everyone and probably wont even get in the pool.
Dave
-
Well Dave, it will good to see you, thong or no thong. (that doesn't sound right :24:) You can meet everybody and still get in the pool if you want. It will just be nice to put faces to the names and enjoy an afternoon + together.
-
i AGREE!!! .... Not so much on the thong thing, but everything else is great with me.
Dave
-
How about DF777 in NE Ohio? :wave: You're not that far away ???? :cool_thumb_up:
-
I really like my company name of Fatman .... but I am afraid if I wear a thong every one would change the name from Fatman to Shorty ... so it will stay home.
Dave F
-

Dave F
Like Clint Eastwood said,
"A man's got to know his limitations"...
-
If there's gonna be short fatmen in thongs, I'm definitely going to rethink my surprise visit. Hahahaa, JK.. :24:
-
Geez, I hope that guy took his money to a casino. :24:
-
Geez, I hope that guy took his money to a casino. :24:
Haha! Looks like he made enough money to maybe buy a beer where he's at, no tip.
True story.. I worked at a pub when I was 18 and we would host midget wrestling.. No BS, those guys can drink! Bet I served the leader like 18 Heinekens in maybe 4 hours.. The good ol days........
-
Well, so much for Spring. Had 6 inches of snow on the first day of Spring :EmoticonHelp4: :Scratch-Head: So if you guys want to wear your thongs, you better put on a heavy coat ! :rotfl: Anyway, supposed to get into the 50's this week so we are finally getting there. Looking forward to Summer and getting together in August ! :dancing_2: :applause:
-
How about DF777 in NE Ohio? :wave: You're not that far away ??? ? :cool_thumb_up:
Thanks for the invite,I would love to come but 387 miles and 6 hours each way would be too
much for me. :thank_you:
-
Come on now. You would drive 6 hours for a Wheel of Fortune game.
-
This sounds like fun but it's 22 hours and over 1400 miles away :(. Guess it might make for a good Harley road trip!
Mike
-
Well Mike, you could make it a vacation trip ! We have Amish Country next door in Lancaster or how about the Chocolate Factories in Hershey, PA or a short drive to the Casinos in Atlantic City or any of the PA casinos! But if you can't make it, I will post pictures of all our famous NLG members :Scratch-Head: and send you a hot dog via UPS > :rotfl: It's PARTY TIME ! :dancing_2: :dancing_2: :dancing_2:
-
We need to call it the Sturgis of Pottstown PA ... that way all the riders who still have a ride (weeping very sadly) can feel it justified. Keep the shinny side up and the greasy side down my friends. See you @ Dennys in PA.
Dave F
-
Well, you can come on bicycles, motorcycles, cars, trucks or covered wagon :24: Just look forward to meeting everyone and having a good time :dancing_2: :dancing_2:
-
This will be great ... looking forward to the pool too. But I will need to go and get a new thong since I have lost 110 lbs, it doesnt fit any more. I might not even get one just in case some of you bring children, I would hate to scare them.
Dave F
So you're thinking "thong-less" may be the way to go, im kinda with you on that one! Rock on Dave...Rock on! :jeannie: :jeannie: :jeannie:

Not sure this will catch on, except maybe on the west coast?
-
No, those definitely are not West Coast men....West Coast guys are much tanner...we have a tanning salon in each strip mall, they are all a nice orangey-brown, it's very natural! LOL!!! :24: :24:
-
WHOA ! I don't want those guys in my pool :Crazy: The only hot dogs we're going to have are coming straight off the grill :24: See you all in Pottstown :applause: :dancing_2:

I agree 100% :I_agree_1:
Dave F
-
Hey, 100 days (and counting) 'til Pottstown "Get Together" , sooooooooooo mark you calendars and pack your bags. It'll be here before you know it. PARTY TIME ! :applause: :dancing_2: :dancing_2:
-
WHOA, only 70 more days. ARE YOU READY TO PARTY ????? :applause: :applause: :dancing_2: :dancing_2: :cool_thumb_up:
-
please don't rush it I enjoy the warm weather here and this year was a tuff winter ,lots hate summer cause sales are slow , but we all need a break from work, now and then :applause:
-
I didn't forget about it. Have not been on here much, family issues.
-
hope everything works out ford ,
-
Thanks Steve. It's been trying the last few month.
-
I am thinking about getting there early and setting up valet parking. With VIP parking at a premium.... wait a minute ... any one who can make it is VIP ... nevermind. I am so ready for this. Is any one bring a machine to like show off.... so we might also do a swap or tail gate party too. What a good idea maybe. Dont want to impede on what is to be the beginning of a wonderful yearly event. Might want to take it slow and keep it low key, but I am so very excited about hanging out with people who love the same obsession I do. Just an idea.
Now ... Denny, this is your pace and I dont want to be out of line, but I love steamed clams and can actually get them deliverd to this area from NE. I am willing to go out and buy a gas burner and a steamer kettle and get 10 lbs o steamers if you feel that this will be fun. More than happy to try to help. And yes ... no thongs allowed. I cant develop any party headache because I have to drive to Maine the next day.
dave (aka thefatman)
-
Hey Ford, hope all is well. Wishing you the best ! And Dave, bring what you like, I know everyone will enjoy eating everything available :24: :rotfl:
-
Please depend on me to bring at least 5 lbs of clams so we can steam them and have the butter. Not the lousy oil you get at alot of shore places. This is real butter with the milk fat in it. I owned a small biker bar in North Gergia and loved every moment of it. Been cooking for a long time and so I am so glad I can help with this. The only issue I have is I cant eat a lot due to my surgery so I am depending on our friends to eat them all. Might even get 10 lbs ... let me know if you get an approximate # of prople who will be there. That will help ... This is the best thing ever Denny ... thank you for hosting. :applause: :applause: :applause: :hail: :hail: :hail:
Dave F
-
Denny,
depending on how move goes, me and misses going to try and make it sounds like fun!
Bill
-
Bill, that's great, I think we are all looking forward to meeting our fellow members and having a good time. Very soon I will ask exactly who is coming and I will PM them my address. I have pretty much everything under control, even picked up name tags just in case there are other folks, (LIKE ME) that are terrible with names :duh: :duh: Soups on :stirthepot: :stirthepot:
-
sounds great looking forward to meeting other members also
Bill
-
Well, looks like folks from PA, NJ, NY, OH, (Maybe Michigan?), MD and now Delaware. Sooooo, looks like a pretty good group. I'm sure it will be a fun day. I will take plenty of pictures for the folks that can't make it, so put on your best "makeup" for the day :24:
-
Denny,
How bout a date reminder for a guy with old-timers disease.

Jason

It was a fantastic time. Look forward to seeing even more friends next year. Hope some of you can make it to The Night of 100 Elvis' in Baltimore December 5. Here's the link to reserve tickets and get hotel info. www.nightof100elvises.com (http://www.nightof100elvises.com)

Thanks for posting your other photos you guys. Too bad more of the other people couldn't make it, but at least it was a start. Look forward to having more people next year. It was a beautiful day poolside and many members have now become friends also. Nice time, thanks again everyone !

Thanks for posting pictures with names! John looks short in few pictures but he is at least 6!

-
Glad you enjoyed Ron. John is about 5' 10". He usually looks taller because he is always surrounded by SHORT women ! :Crazy: :24:
-
I am happy that all went well. The pictures show that a good time was indeed had by all. What a perfect weather day it was too. Hats off to the wonderful hosts and all of the participants. I understand from some of the real old timers that there were many more shows and events on the east coast years ago. With the passage of time reportedly these gatherings have all petered out. We needed something like this. I was excited even though I knew that I would not be able to attend. If God grants me another year then my plan is to be there at the next one.
Stay well all
Ra
-
Yeah, it's time to renew old friendships and this is one way of doing it. Sorry you missed this one, but I (we) look forward to seeing you there for "The 2nd Annual Pottstown Get Together" ! :cool_thumb_up:
-
OK Guys,
I'm already working on next year's tee shirt. There will be a brand new front, but all the members that were at the 1st one will be surprised with the brand new back. I understand there will also be some giveaways, sooooooooooooooooo hope to see you there ! More info later !
-
Looking very forwar to it. Sorry to miss you this weekend.
Dave

Well RA, Dave, Shaggy and everyone,
How about "2nd Annual Get Together" schedule for August 13, 2016 ? Pool should be nice and warm, food should be very good and house fully air conditioned just in case. If that date sounds good to everyone, just let me know and we will "set it in stone" Ideas from the 1st Annual Alumni ? Wadda ya think ? :Scratch-Head:
-
The date is good for me. The only suggestions is to have the folks that say they will be ther, to be there or let you know they wont. But other than that .... its hard to fix perfect.
Dave ... The Fatman
-
OK Dave,
Hope we get a good crowd, it is fun to meet the great members from this site and fellow slot lovers. Hope we picked another picture perfect day !!!
-
Denny it sounds great. I'll see what I can do.
-
That date works for me. I'm with Dave on people coming if they say. Not right you had all that food this year & people didn't show that said they were coming.
-
I live 5 minutes from Pottstown, Pa. Let us know when a date has been finalized...
-
Uhh, sorry, Old post..

Yepper ! I will PM you my address closer to the date. That date should read August 13th NOT the 23. You are certainly welcome and please feel free to bring your wife or girlfriend BUT please don't bring both !!! :Crazy:
We had to fish John from Rudy's out of the pool last year when he brought both. The Fatman had to quickly put on his thong and jumped in to save him !! (JUST KIDDING !!) :24: :24: :24:
-
I know it's still pretty far away, but thought I would get started on this year's "Get Together" Tee shirt. Of course, everyone who attends gets a commemorative Tee shirt. So just so you know what to look forward to here is a photo of the "1st Annual Pottstown Get Together" Tee Shirt and this years "2nd Annual Pottstown Get Together" tee shirt. (OOOPS you got to be there to get this years TEE !! :24:)

So let it be written...
By the grace of God I look forward to attending this year for sure. Already put it on my not-so-smart phone. I know that shirts and grub is not free. Please let me know how, and how much to donate. You guys have been a part of my life for many years and I look forward to meeting you and seeing The Fatman in the Thong. lol

Ok Denny I think I got this now. I'd say at that distance I better take 2! :24: No more 12 oz. curls for me.
-
Dennaroo, we are dialed in. Flight booked, car reserved, should surface Aug. 13th. I'm in! Is it too early to apologize in advance? :Scratch-Head: Looking forward to it. :cool_thumb_up:
-
Hey Shagatini, that's great !! :dancing_2: We're all looking forward to meeting you. Are you coming alone or ??? I've now had contacts from New York, New Jersey, PA, Maryland, Virginia and Delaware , so it looks like we might be meeting a lot of members. We should be finalizing some numbers in early July and we will know where we are going from there. Looking forward to seeing many more members this year. :applause: Party time ! :cool_thumb_up: :dancing_2:

No just me, Miss Patty has to keep the Fort down. We can't both leave at the same time for any kind of extended stay. The last time we got to go on vacation was 2002. Too many critters to take care of. And too much business stuff. She has to go (through work) 2 or 3 times a year to Symposiums or training or re certification or blah, blah, blah. To really horrible places like Daytona Beach, KCMO, etc.. And I mind the store, so to speak. So you'll have to put up with just me. I'll make sure and bring evidence, oh I mean pics back for her. So I'm going to need to brush up on my accents? The Midwest one is pretty bland. I'm pumped!
-
Still getting caught up on everything since coming back to NLG, this get together seems to have shaped up nicely. We will be visiting Hershey park and other places that week.
I doubt Id be able to snaek away from the family to attend but who knows. It would be great to meet you all in person and out sime faces to names while having some fun.
-
Well, you will be about 1 hour and 10 minutes away. That is Hershey to North Coventry (Pottstown) So that is really not that far away. We will be here all day and you will certainly be welcome to stop by
-
Whoa ! Only 60 days to go ! :applause: :dancing_2: Better start getting ready to pack those swimming suits and get ready for some food, fun and friendship when we get together in Pottstown for the 2nd annual members "Get Together". Hope to see all of you very soon. ! :cool_thumb_up:
-
Woo Hoo! I cant wait!
-
Hey RA, looking forward to meeting you. We missed you last year by a week or two. Dave (The Fatman) was looking for you also, so we will all get together this year ! We're going to have call Dave "Skinny" from now on. :24: :24:
-
Thank you so much Denny: By the grace of God I shall be present.
I saw Dave, and spent some time with him at the Allentown show and he is APPROACHING skinny but not there yet. I will go back in the thread to find the exact address and put it into my GPS. I estimate and bout 2 1/2 hour drive and a lifetime of good memories. That seems like a good trade off to me. Thank you in advance for hosting us again.
Ra
-
If you need the address just send me a PM and I will get it to you.
-
WOW ! Can you believe it............ 2nd Annual member "Get Together" is next month. Yep, August 13th is coming way too fast, but we'll be ready for a good time of friends, food and fellowship. Looking forward to it ! :dancing_2:

Looking forward to seeing you and the lovely wife again ! :wave:

Well gang, can you believe we are only a few weeks away from our 2nd Annual members "Get Together" coming up on August 13th.

Looks like we have New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, New York and PA. So right now it looks like:
The Fatman plus ?
Slots-4-U plus ?
Elvis plus 1
brazoot plus 1

Denny plus 1
Rudy's plus 1
Rise Like RA plus 1

Perfect time for a "MOON" shot and the vertical smiles. haha

Hey Elvis, "The Eagle has landed!" and so the great 2nd Annual NLG "Get Together" is TOMORROW. It is supposed to be very hot, but the house is cranked down to 70 degrees. However, I'll bet the gang will heat things up !!! :fryingpan: :Crazy:
-
Denny, We had a great time again this year. Happy to meet a few members I had not met before.
-
Thank You Denny for your gracious hospitality. Although I was a "Johnny come lately" you were kind enough to show me your wonderful collection of machines.
I regret not being there to meet some of the guys, but I had a scheduling conflict with a Jukebox /Coin Op show at Jake's Flea Market that I agreed to host.
Thanks for the mouse pad and The 2nd Annual T shirt...... Hope you can stop by my place some time to hang out for a bit. Regards......Tom
-
Denny:
I sent you a PM however I echo the thanks expressed buy everyone above. You and you wife were the perfect hosts. I enjoyed seeing your collection and the hand made meatballs hit the spot. I took it easy and only ate 30 of them. It was great to meet some of the folks from this list. I look forward to #3. As always should you find yourself in my neck of the woods I will repay your hospitality.
Very well done!!
-
Fond Memories... I hope that by the grace of God we can do it again

Hey Guys,
Finally got some photos from Saturday's "Get Together". More to follow !
-
And here are some more : Plenty of food, fruit, drinks and dessert !
-
hey, a few more shots . More to follow ! :24:
-
Just a couple more photos and then some funny stories ! :24:
-
What a great time AND I won a few bucks at the Valley Forge Casino thanks to Dennys directions. The Wizard aka Don Lee took a loss at the casino but had a great time. He now promises to buy a computer. Don't hold your breath.
TerrAnce aka RiseLikeRa
-
I sure Denny showed you a good time. SORRY I could not make it.
-
Hey Ford,
We'll see you next year. It's your turn to bring the cake ! :24: :24: You'll fit in with this group !!
-
Funny stories:
1. "The Fatman" Dave didn't bring his thong to go in the pool, but RiseLikeRa did bring his thong, but when Dave didn't go in Terrance put his back in the car. The women had all grabbed their cameras but ..........................?
2. "Elvis" did not eat his usual 7 hot dogs, but he did try to get away with something and got caught. When he thought no one was watching he single handedly finished off the bowl of Sour Cream and Cheddar potato chips. He thought no one saw him but Debbie and Diana were chuckling during the whole caper.
For those who missed it this year we hope to see you next year. It was a great time !!!
-
One more thing......when the printer was ready to print the back of this years shirts, the first print came out looking like this !!!!! :Crazy: :Crazy:
-
Looks like you had a great time. 3rd times the charm.
Dave
-
I'll bring the cake next year. Did you like the one I had last year. If you did will get one @ same place for next year.
-
Hey Shaggatini,
You really "KNEED" (inside joke) to make it next year ! The honey is excellent. And Ford the cake was terrific, RiseLikeRa brought it this year. We all ate well except for RiseLikeRa he only had 42 of my homemade meatballs with spicy sausage sauce. He wanted more but I think we ran out. :24: :24:

Yeah it's an "inside" joke for sure. If I don't lose any more body parts I will do my best. I promise, like I said the last time...........Glad you liked the honey. Looked, like usual, you threw a wonderful party. 2017???
-
OK 2017 ?? How about August 26th, 2017 ??? How is that date with everyone? Also should be cooler by then.
-
Hey, some of the guys told me they are already using their "Get Together" mousepad every time they get online to the NLG website. Great !! :applause: :dancing_2:
-
Denny, your one AWSOME guy.
-
Thanks Ford ! It's been my pleasure to host these events. I just realized we have over 21000 views and 12 pages on this thread, so I think it is time to start a "Pottstown Get Together 2017" thread. Thanks everyone !! :thank_you: :thank_you:
