So, with the afterparty being scheduled, and me not being able to find a bowling alley that does reservations that aren't stupid high end, here is the plan for extracurricular activities for anyone who is up for them:
I have a suite booked. Saturday I'll set up some apps and bottles of liquor for pregaming. I figure we can have a ballllpit meet from 10:30-1ish with snacks. Then we can head out as a group, get actual lunch, check out portland as a group, and head back to the suite to resume pregaming at 4 or 5, and head over to the venue around 7, 730. It's all about 5 minutes away. I'll play (terribly) against anyone who wants to throw down at MTG while we pregame. After the show, if there's a decent group of people that want to order some room service and play board games and whatnot, I'm cool with that, but only if it's enough people everyone is comfortable hanging out
