    yes, I would consider spending 200 bucks for one hell of a evening if anyone can go. I've always wanted to do this.

    Has anyone on the BBS ever been to one of these things? I would think at least one person has.

    If so, what do you remember from it? Do the players sign autographs? Are they talkative, and interested in what you have to say. What else?

    I would probably go alone, is it too much trouble to go alone. Is it not right to go alone? Who would I sit with?

    Of course I have no chance of going to the Gala if I have a school exam on the 28th(afternoon) or Friday the 29th.

    I'm just trying to get a feel for how event is carried out.

    Went last year.
    It was great fun, I'd suggest going.
    I didnt actually ask for any autographs,
    but some of the players are talkative, others (Kelvin Cato)
    are just really dumb.
    They'd just place you at a table with other random people.
    Anyways...its fun, your right by all the players, you can bid on cool
    memorabilia, the speakers are usually decent, food isnt bad, etc.
