    Oldschool AO'ers... Event Pics & Stories Thread

    Aighty Baller's... I thought it's about time someone made a thread for all the Oldschool AO'ers to come by, share some pics and/or stories of times they've had, and simply relate how AO once was and could be again. Maybe an attempt to try and bring back some of that AO spirit, goodness and unification throughout the boards and PB industry.

    Things that are brought to mind..... AO Days, the MegaMeet, IAO - AFTICA in the OGD, all Automag Team BlackCell, Shatnerball.

    What make's you an oldschool AO'er? If you have to ask, then your probably not one of them. No worries though. Even if your new to AO, but you've had an AO related experience at a local field or some such, tell away. Respond to someone's story and/or pictures first, then relate your own. Keep it short, keep it simple, hopefully it's funny and or entertaining...



    I've got a million AO memories, but for now I'll start with this one.


    Time and Place - IAO 04'


    Event - Team AFTICA in IAO's OGD (owners group division) and TK's Tech Conference


    Just some pics and short comments for now to get things stirring...


    "Where have all the oldschool AO'ers gone?" (scenic driving on the 7hr roadtrip from Jersey to Pittsburgh)


    There they are! Can you name them all? (during one of the nights, hotel room chillen)




    ...AFTICA members were hoping for some donations to our "Campaign o de Thirst"

        There's only one picture that I need to post.

        46 pitchers of beer, numerous carbombs and shots, one embarassed pro with his own video game. One night. One legend lived. One bar destroyed.

        *edit* I almost forgot the creme de la creme quote of the weekend - "I need this more than you"

          I know it's a little off topic, but it is about old AO days. Does anyone know where I can buy a copy of the DVD made of AOSC-II (AKA AOSE-II)? I meant to purchase one way back then, but never got around to it. I've tried a couple of times since then without any luck.

          That was a great AO meet. Things have really changed since then...

                  One of the best days I've had was the AO-CA Farewell Day for cbldawg and Steelrat. I'll post some pics tomorrow, don't have them on my work comp.

                  AO Nor-Cal vs So-Cal was another fairly recent great AO event. Few pics from that as well in the future.

                          Look at that smug bastard, third from the right, back row.


                          I need to call him tonight.

                          Speaking of smug bastards.

                          Look at the two goons to the left of him.
                          The guy in the white cap is especially ugly.

                            If you do call him, tell him I said "look, a kitten..."
