"Hey, Want To Play Borderlands At Gearbox This Friday?"
I guess this is enough to get me to un-lurk.
Giantbomb.com is featuring a contest this week to take two of its community memebers with Brad shoemaker to Gearbox to play Borderlands for an afternoon.

You just have to go, comment on the story (its how they run contests for some reason), and be able to get your but to the Dallas area by Friday.
I'm out, as that's like a 20 hour drive....
just an fyi, i live in chicago, but im looking up bus fares and shit, i realllly wanna try and go to this, haha
Edit: well i guess i can't go, i can' afford the 200dollar bus fare, or the 189$ in gas if i were to drive, o well. im actually really sad now, i wont get to meet randy and them, and i wont get to play borderlands
Howdy fellow prisoner of commie IL, I down south in Bloomington-Normal. Only cost me $80-100 in gas if not cheaper.
if it would be $80 i might give it a try, but from lansing (just south of chicago) it would cost 200 on greyhound and about 189 in gas, :(
Whoever gets to go to this are a couple of lucky bastards. One, Giant Bomb is awesome, and two, it's fucking BORDERLANDS. That would be the ultimate afternoon.
I live in northern IL as well, and it's really not paying off at times like these.
hey 3 of us in il, cool, but you guys are probably going to play it on pc right?
Nope, I plan on playing it on Xbox.
oh sweet! my Gamertag is: herosresolve
just like my name here, add me if ya want, i play Cod4 and a few other games right now too
360 also. Shoot, I have a LAN planned for Oct 24th. :D
What part of northern IL I'm from Waukegan

It be a 11hr drive for me but I could stop and see a long time friend in OK City. I'm going for it!
Have you hugged a Basset Hound today?
