BYTE ME™: Midwest Gaming Classic, Oconomowoc, Wisconsin

So I didn't go insane, but I did make a purchase.

The Midwest Gaming Classic proved itself pretty worthy of the road trip up to Oconomowoc, past the Poblocki Paving Sign and the Amish Barn. Anonymous A even won something - because the key she was given when we bought our tickets actually opened the "magic treasure chest" inside the free play room, and she was the envy of every dork within a 25-foot radius. We also spotted a Snack Attack Kenny in the dangerously unhygenic dining area, but Dartanjal failed to capture him on film. We even got to talk to a man who had a frizzy pony tail and was bleeding from the chin!

But don't take my word for it -- if a picture's worth a thousand words, then here's a 35,000 word essay for you to enjoy:
