Orlando PlayStation.Blog Meet-up Details

Posted by Jeff Rubenstein // Social Media Manager

UPDATE: The Facebook event page – which was inexplicably down for a bit – is back up. RSVP now!

Don’t let me hear that the East Coast gets no love from us.

As mentioned earlier, I’ll be attending a blogging conference in sunny Orlando next week, and I’d like to meet you well-tanned PlayStation fans. Here are the details – we’ll be meeting up next Friday (September 26th) from 7-9 pm near downtown (*not* Downtown Disney!) at UCF’s FIEA – the awesome videogame grad school program that they’ve got going on down there.

FIEA - UFC, Orlando, FL

We’ll be playing games competitively (yes, for prizes) and enjoying real southern BBQ, with sweet tea by the gallon. Mmmmmm, sweet tea…

FIEA people will also be around to answer questions – so if you’ve never seen a mo-cap studio before, this could be your big chance.

Afterwards, we’ll be conveniently located near the downtown bar ‘n’ club area, so I’m sure there’ll be some spillover as well. I’m a big fan of I-Bar, personally.

All you need to do is, um, show up. Yes, of course it’s free. RSVP at playstationblogorlando@gmail.com or on our Facebook event page, so we know how much pork to pull.

OK, the above, summarized into blurb form:

    Orlando PlayStation.Blog readers’ meet-up
    Friday, September 26, 7-9 pm local time
    Florida Interactive Entertainment Academy
    500 W Livingston St
    Orlando, FL 32801
    USA, Earth
