Pack up your gaming gear, find a sitter and mark your calendars for the 5th annual LAN event at the Chicago Marriott O'Hare in Rosemont, Illinois, August 6th-8th, 2010.
Join us as we all explore innovative ways to pwn your fellow 2old2play gamers. This year’s conference will include over 60+ screens; Xbox 360, PC, Wii, and station play in over 3000square feet of gaming and playing space. The more you play the greater your chance is to win some amazing raffle gifts and the opportunity to help some kids in need at Child’s Play! Updated information and meeting agendas will all be posted online as we get closer to the date, so check back here often and register while space is still available. We will be limiting our tickets this year to 80 tickets only in order to ensure the size of our LAN room is adequate, so be sure to act fast.
Dates: August 6th-8th, 2010 (Feel free to show up early as many members do)
Location: Chicago Marriott O'Hare, Rosemont, Illinois
Limited Tickets
This year we have decided to limit the amount of tickets sold to 80. The reason for this is to ensure we have the right size room for the LAN now and every year following. Each year we have to make a rough guess as to how many people are going to show up and that hurts our ability to secure the correct size room. Limiting the number of people gives us an opportunity to choose a room size that fits our number. If we sell out of that number quickly then we know for next year to book an even larger event. So what does this mean for you? Get your tickets ASAP.
