I've heard good things about the EXP bar, but that's way out in North Vancouver so a bit far away.

Being a stranger from another land (i.e. Arizona) I'd be interested in going out someplace with people from LTX, and EXP looks pretty neat. Though I'd most likely not be able to make it till later that night.

EXP is pretty dope.

That's awesome, but I'm not sure if the venue will let the dog in.

Update: 2 tickets have been bought; souls have been signed away to Linus and crew. Please treat them well.

 

Ride offers for up to 2 people are still open to fellow Vancouver Islanders or those along our route (with good attitudes who won't stab me) from the Departure Bay Ferry Terminal in Nanaimo to Horseshoe Bay in North Vancouver then to the Langley Events Centre. I'm just offering out of convenience and the kindness of my own heart, but won't turn down Starbucks Gift cards if a rider feels like it.

Route 1 through Coquitlam via Golden Ears Bridge: https://goo.gl/maps/zR4SWYuYgxB2

Route 2 through Burnaby via Patullo Bridge: https://goo.gl/maps/Hrjha4TgAgv

Route 3 through Burnaby via Port Mann Bridge: https://goo.gl/maps/jXbJJDWKVuw

So I didn't realize the week I'm going to Seattle from STUPID KANSAS is the week of LTX! Just bought LTX Ticket, bus passes to and from, and am hyped beyond hyped! Also, currently attempting to find:

  1. People to Chill With
  2. a Place To Stay the Night (Airbnb pending, fingers crossed)
  3. People to Chill With

(tldr i have no friends in canada)

 

 

Made account to post this. Need to fill out profile. Hello LTT fam

I think we need to get a few after drinks going. Is there a plan or should we all just turn up with a dozen at the LTT parking lot? xD

 

Maybe someone can supply the BBQ?

We'll be streaming different parts of the event, and also creating 3-4 videos across Channel Super Fun and Linus Tech Tips. :) 

Where will the variety if the videos play, will games be on CSF and Etc on LTT?

I may show up pretty drunk. As its a Saturday and I will be in Vancouver on Thursday drinking pretty heavily from the get go, going to all the fantastic bars. We are basically doing our own pub crawl, party bus and everything. Hoping to snag some beautiful women in V-town.

I was serious about me driving from Ohio though, I'm in the middle of the trip just sitting in a McDonald's in Washington on my laptop taking a bit of a break cause I made such great time driving here that i'm a little too early for my Airbnb reservation. Got some amazing pics on the drive up though. This is going to be such a great time!

 

Also can i just pull up the ticket on my phone? or will i have to find a Staples near here and have it printed out?
