We always do these "things that totally happened" round-ups at the end of each event we go to. This year's Penny Arcade Expo has had so many odd occurances that we had to do one early. There could easily be another list tomorrow.
Things that totally happened at PAX 09:
- The above shirt for the f'n beautiful PSN game, Critter Crunch
- Swine flu/bird flu/blogger flu - everyone is sick
- $30+ parking
- Someone died in the room next to Jonathan Ross's room (seriously)
- F'n co-workers set something up with Sony to trick me, PSPgo-related
- Marc Ecko interview
- Morgan Webb blows off Mr. Destructoid
- Guy at Walgreen's slams iced tea on ground in protest
- Destructoid performs a musical at their panel
- Dick Wolf shirts
- Rockstar Games goes apesh*t for HAWP

Does it involve Sony saying that they realised their mistake and are now gonna price it at non astronomical prices?
That bitch.
Define "Blows off" because that could be really good or really bad.
Also, I heard about the guy that died. That's crazy! Anyone know what happened?
iPHONE APPS!
"Destructoid announces two iPhone apps."

She could play Bruce Campbell's chin double in the upcoming WOW movie.
LOL
"Destructoid announces two iPhone apps"

"Morgan Webb is just angry because she can't fit her gigantic chin inside the Dtoid helmet."
LMFAO!!!!
Also, Webb.
Heres to wishing I was at PAX.

Also Dtoid bobbleheads are incoming.
Feel free to correct me if I screwed up any of that info.
I cannot wait for PAX east!
XD OMG! Were is the Sex Tape??? This is Scandal GOLD!!! >XD LOL!
Morgan Webb talked to me, but I'm a nobody. I talked to Adam for about 10 minutes at the EA booth.
I'm in the photo somewhere around the guy with the "V" for victory hands.
I was lucky enough to find cheap parking, and no get the Flu.
FIXED!
CHAD GOT SO FUCKING HAMMERED IT WAS RIDICULOUS...LY AWESOME!
Seriously. I don't even think he remembers me, partially because not even 5 minutes into talking with him, he's telling me about how awesome I, and everyone, are, and how it would suck if he died from alcohol poisoning, but his last wish was to want all of us to know we're awesome.
To that, I say, Chad, you're awesome!
