If I win lotto this weekend (or any between now and Sept) I'll come.

Wanted to visit Chicago last year, but never got a chance :(

Dates shall be Sept 14th through 18th. This is a Monday through Friday, so for me it would have to be a Monday through Thurs night (i.e. 14th through 17th evening), probably after 6PM to allow me transit time from the burbs.

There were rounds of shots, very stout beers, some talk of ALFA, some talk of things other then ALFA, amazingly glorious burgers were eaten with exotic ingredients.....I remember us laughing quite a bit and looking forward to the next Chicago ALFA Con. Oh and BRM showed up....all and all I would say it was the best Chicago ALFA Con ever.....although as far as I know it was also the first.

In a couple of months there will likely be a second Chicago ALFA CON, the sequel just like any sequel will require more special effects then the first, or in this case more rounds of shots and more stout drinks.
