HorsePlayer Interactive card?

^hastings horse race i believe

How was the line up this morning? I heard it stretched all the way to nanaimo

Wow, I can't believe people were lined up all the way to Vancouver Island...Don't think that's worth it...

lol i meant nanaimo street

Seriously?!@!?

:lawl:

Those people who want you to park at their house... Had to dodge one of them as my car approached and she started walking into the street.

:fulloffuck: :facepalm:

people on twitter saying they lost soo much money playing games haha

Well ya,don't those people know those fair games were designed to make money,not lose it.

they are casino games basically. house always wins

Most, if not all games require knowledge on the hidden trick behind beating them.
Then once you figure that out, you still need quite a bit of practice.
Practice that staff had access to of course, which is why they can demo it to you.
But once it's your turn, you always lose and your practices costs you $3-5 each time.

Best is if you used to work at PNE, knowing all the tricks, and then go back and own all the games.
But then again, the prizes kind of suck anyway, so I'm not sure why so many people even bother.

I guess it's just for the sake of winning. Cause I sure as hell don't want a stuff animal, especially those kind.
It's like those big prizes is a HUGE stuff animal. Great, so where the hell am I going to put this in my house now.

They tear really easily too...but I think it's more about the 'b0ss' feeling people get when they win their significant other a big prize lolz.

^oh yeah... build quality of them are crap. And I think many of them are stuffed with that material
(not sure what it's called) but once you squish it or bend it, it actually damages whatever's inside.

It feels like it's some kind of styrofoam-ish material instead of the standard "fluff"/cotton in plushes.
I don't know how else to explain it... lol

Is the star trek exhibit any good?

rofl i rather go casino than play those casino type games @ pne. such a rip off :okay:

do it then nikkah

I went yesterday, if you're into the show then you'll love it, they have at least 50 costumes even from obscure characters on the show all mounted on mannequins... lots of models of the various ships and tonnes of examples of the history of phasers and scanners... couple of show scripts to leaf through... that kind of thing. I think it's pretty well done for what it is.

There's a few pic opportunities but those cost $ might be worth it if you're really into it though... the bridge of the NCC1701D from Next Generation is recreated so you can go solo in the captain's chair for a pic or if you have a bunch of friends can man the different posts haha

Gift store afterwards is lame... $10 for flimsy rubber spock ears? No thanks.

did they have the prized stuffed-toy stoner looking penguin or rasta banana?

i saw a shitload of those during the calgary stampede but didnt get to win one lol hoping to score one of those at pne this year

They have those bananas for sure this year

Went Monday with the family. Agree the Star Trek exhibit is good if you are a fan of the show. Wasn't as busy as I expected it to be considering it was free admission. Spent far too much $$$ on ribs and pulled pork - made the ride passes seem cheap. Didn't bother with any of the games as they're not my thing. Took a big crap this morning and had a ring of fire. Serves me right.


The real entertainment was watching the fight between my wife, her friend and both of their moms with two other ladies and a man over a picnic table. These other ladies were telling my wife that they had a reservation for the table and they had to leave. They actually claimed they get to use the table for the whole day and they paid for it. I finally got sick and asked the first lady (the "boss") if she had a receipt or piece of paper to prove she had the table reserved. She actually tells me she has a receipt but forgot it in her car. So I said if she wants to go get it and bring it back then we'll move. Until then, we're staying put. And that was pretty much the end of the argument. A short while later the rest of their family shows up apparently expecting a "reserved" table.

The stuff people will try to pull.

Vansterdamn the game right across from the beer garden that is closer to the play land side has the stoner penguin

do they still got fish and chip from abbotsford/chilliwhack?

I want those :ahwow:

I spent $60 on the throw a ball at the 3 block to win a mini bike game last night :(

Good work, keep it up.
