That closes out our 29th year of California Extreme.
Special recognition to our many superstar volunteers, incredible community, friends that provided coin-ops, hotel/ convention staff & everyone that attended.
Looking forward to our 30th show next year! Until then, game over.

I had a great time at @CAExtremeOrg playing some of our regular favorites, along with arcade titles I have not played since the 2000s.
