Wizard World Chicago Forum Dinner

144 posts in this topic

I know it is early, but we had first refusal for the room, and the room was getting booked.

 

Please join Saturday, August 8, 2009 for the sixth annual Chicago Board Dinner at the fabulous Gibson's Steakhouse, located directly across the street from the Rosemont Convention Center. The Chicago Board Dinner is the highlight of the convention season. Last year we had a record 65 join us for dinner, and another 20 or so wander in to geek out under the watchful eye of the benevolent Donald E. Stephens:

Ive heard that there is a chance that WWChicago will be canceled. On that note, if it is canceled, is there any chance that another promoter will pick up the show and keep it going?

 

 

Where did you here that? I live forty miles south of Chicago. Havent heard anything like that yet. Let us know any info you have.

Totally - just chickened out of the dinner last year :sorry:

Don't feel like the Lone Ranger. I went with the guys to Hooters. The place should be sued for false advertisement.
