PAX

To my fellow Seattle-ites and Eastsiders:

If you happen to notice a weird amount of traffic around I-90 and 520 this weekend, don't worry... it's just the 17,000 video gamers / otaku who are in town in the downtown Bellevue area for webcomic / game ndustry commentors Penny Arcade's 3rd annual event, PAX. Grip your controllers tightly, hold back your daughters, and hide your dice... haha.

Even the Seattle PI has a news story on the event, which starts tomorrow and lasts until Sunday night.

I must confess, my inner gameplaying geek is tempted to check out the convention mandess for at least one day, but sadly, my War-crack and FPS skills have sadly deteriorated from their once respectable heights.
