Who You Gonna Call?
Last night something amazing happened.
Because of a random act of Twittering by @JesseHambley last week a somewhat impromptu gathering of Pittsburgh New Media, Tech, Bloggers, and random friends got together at the CreativeTreehouse and screened not only Ghostbusters, but Ghostbusters II! (Sorry y’all, I wish I could post the entire day’s Ghostbuster insanity here, but most of you were part of it. Just tap in to that delicious well of memories.)
Initially I anticipated it being only a gathering of maybe 15 or 20 people, but there were easily over 30 people who showed, brought food, drink, and amazing conversation. We had our very own Ghosts show up, toys, and even Magic made a late appearance. And we gave out the first ever Burgie award!
Since I’m lame and I don’t have a digital camera or camera with video capability as of now, I’m going to just direct you to Norm’s rockin’ post about the evening, complete with the Carman Ghost, The Burgie presentation to Rachel, and the Round Table of Magic. I’ll also direct you to Jim’s photos of the evening! He and Jesse made the whole night happen, so kudos to them! (BTW, I know there are more of you that had cameras out there… where are these secret photos? Hmm?)
The Pittsburgh New Media community is unique, and I heard multiple times last night just how much everyone appreciates being a part of it. I know I do. “Them’s good people.”
