Heading to Elk Grove Village in September, does anyone out there play the old school games at Galloping Ghost? I’m assuming it’s the only arcade still open so there’s a 99% chance that’s the only place I’ll be spending my time while I’m out there for the week (9/8-912).
I used to live within walking distance of Galloping Ghost, but just moved away this past weekend. I still work in the area so I might be down for some games.
I’ll be heading out there next Monday, anyone up for giving me a ride to the arcade and back to my hotel? Trying to not rent a car lol
You’ll have much better luck asking in the FB group.
Hey, do any of you guys go to Gameworks at Streets of Woodfield in Schaumburg?
^Unfortunately, not anymore.
What game(s) do you play? We have weekly gatherings on Mondays and Fridays.
We also have a FB Group where most/all day-to-day activities and discussions occur (link is somewhere earlier in this thread).
Hope that helps.

I’ve only managed to really sink my teeth into SSF4:AE, but I’m willing to learn a new game if it’s fun. My name’s Brandon Brown, add me to the group. I’d love to get to know you guys.
It’s a public group, you can join it…also, tried searching, and there are a bunch of Brandon Browns, LOL.
Story of my life. Thanks for having me onboard, and I’ll definitely see what I can do about making it to some events. See you then!
Could any of you tell me what times you guys meet at EXP?
hey everyone. Anyone selling an arcade stick for 50 bucks xbox 360 or ps3 in chicago? I’m a long time community member with multiple purchase from fellow fans.
Where is the public place that all the games happen at on saturday night?
I want you all to know. That you are all oWNEd. You will see me monday at ignite
If you’ve got a 3rd Strike itch you’d like to scratch then join a league (or start smoking cigarettes… Either way, let’s enjoy an addiction together!)

Hey everyone. I am
“JImmy Ellis” on facebook
I’m banned from the group
I’m a top eight evo finalist for eve 2k6 and an old school chicago legend.
I got banned because i was playing on the board. Anyway, i didn’t know that their was NO WAY to find the locals without all the new fangled Facebook ways that are beyond me.
Un ban me so i can see what’s going on as i at least need viewing privileges.
Do this because old school top eight eve finalist deserve to smash kids heads in with his old school tricks that he got from countless years of dedication to the profound arts of the way of playing fighting games professionally and traveling across the country.

Hey all. I went to ignite last night, had to bounce @ 8. Next week I’ll likely be able to stick around a bit later. Regardless, I’ll still probably show at 6 (no one else showed till ~ 7:30 yesterday.) I don’t do Facebook, so posting here.
If anyone wants to meet up at 6, ill be there — sf4 newbie here.
