Title: Cosplay Mini Golf
Post by: Oniko on July 16, 2009, 07:32:49 PM
I got the urge to golf and the urge to cosplay, missing Fanime.  After asking some friends if they wanted to go I decided to post it up here on the forums to see who else is interested.

Date: July 25th
Time: Around 1
Place: Sunnyvale Golfland
Directions given from site: From 101 Freeway:
Take the Lawrence Expressway exit, turn South onto Lawrence Expressway (Left turn from San Jose direction and right turn from San Francisco direction)Take the El Camino Real exit and turn right. Go straight until you hit 855 E. El Camino Real we will be on the right side.

From 280 Freeway:
Take Wolfe Rd. exit and head North (right turn from San Jose direction left turn from San Francisco) go straight, parking available from Wolfe Rd. shortly after the Wolfe/El Camino Real intersection.

I've never put together a meet so lets just see how this goes.

People Going (could change):

Myself
Jen
Jeff
+2 more friends?
G.S. LXVIII
daiphyer.com
Ska_Kitti

I still havnt decided if I'll dress up as Haruhi or Shana.

Hate to say this, but you're up against the Gilroy Garlic Festival and Ultimate Game Night gatherings that day.

I'm down for it.

Maybe I'll bring my A. Michel cosplay. Then go into the SVGL arcade, get on the Pop'n 16 machine, and play as A. Michel. XD

I totally forgot about the arcade!  Now I'm even more excited.

I just realized: This is on a Saturday. If I go to Arcade Mania beforehand (9 AM - 12 AM), I'm already there!

I'd really like to attend this event, but I won't be able to get to the Bay Area until some time in August.
I enjoyed attending the golf meet-up last year and I'd like to be able to take part in it again.
Also, because of the big event that's going on on the 25th, it might be better to change the meet-up to a later date, since it'd be less crowded.

I would if I could, but I'm already having 2 other gatherings on Saturday and one on Sunday.

Maybe you'll have more gatherings at Golflands?

I miss a good ol arcade hang out :P

Just saying, dress up as Shana :D

Let us know if there is any change. Also, where can someone like me, who does not know you, can find your gathering?

turns out I'll be in my haruhi outfit.  It was that or my kimono, cause I really dont feel like wearing my wig x_x the hair would make it hard to golf.

Damn! Turns out I have stuff to do with my family in the afternoon, so I'll only be available until 5.

I'm unsure if I'll be cosplaying, since I'll feel embarassed cosplaying unless I'm with another cosplayer.

Darn, I missed cosplay golf due to a really bad stomach flu I'm recovering from. I caught it yesterday and I still feel terrible :'(

This is Ray, the guy who was cosplaying as this guy (http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v473/gs68/co/?action=view&current=BeatRock3AMichel.png). Nice seeing you all today!

I would like to, I just dont know when.  Goign on a weekday would have been easier so we werent in such a crowded place but now I'm in school in SF.  I can come home on thursday-monday sometimes.  I dunno XD someone set it up and I'll tell all my friends to be there.

I should've brought this up sooner then, since you said Monday, since tomorrow is Labor Day.

And then there's the not-exactly-random "furlough days" (aka days off due to budget cuts) that SJSU has.
