Posted in Event Announcement, Featured | Leave a comment

I’m admittedly a little late in posting this, though I assume the majority of the local community is aware of the HAAG Expo. Still, no excuse!

This Friday and Saturday, join other Texas Arcade and Pinball collectors for games (set to free play, of course), tournaments, raffles, and more. There is even a swap meet on Saturday from 8AM to noon. See the event calendar and www.arcadecenter.com for more information.
