Looks like no one told them that Ronald Lacey died 20 years ago.Festivals.com said:
If they will be able to bring him back from the grave, I'll be there! Maybe that's one of the "surprises"?Anyway, Chicago...great city and a fitting place for a convention considering it's connection with Indy's university days (plus Harrison grew up in the area). It's a good bet that Indyclone25, DocWhiskey & Chicago103 will be attending. Right?

I take it this is not endorsed by Lucasfilm? For a second I thought they were holding this (a la the Star Wars Celebrations) as a prelude to announcing a new Indy film and/or Blu-ray collection.

Though I live in TN, I'm from Aurora, IL. If this gets off the ground I'll make the trip back to Chi-Town.

All discussion to do with the Armageddon Expo 2011 (as in me meeting Karen Allen and John Rhys-Davies) are now moved to a more appropriate thread, "Armageddon Expo 2011- Karen Allen & John Rhys-Davies."
So discussion here can now be back on track for the Celebration Event in Chicago.

Is this 'Chicago' event even for real?
Piggy-backing their 'Negotiaions with cast actors' on a list of actors from the movies gives an inflated impression of the likely final product.
This appears like either a no-goer, and an intentional no-goer.
"The Nigerian Indyan Johns Fan Club is please to offer the opportunity to attending a lifetime once event, to be held in Los Angeles, on the sunny shores of Chicago. Send 50 of your US dollars to us now and you'll be in for big surprises. Please also be including full bank details and passwords."

I'd like to attend a well put together Indy Convention. I'll keep track of this thread to see if positive news arises on this moving forward!!

If this convention pulls through and actually seems worth while, count me in for sure. But, as of now, we need some more details.

Hi, Doc. Welcome back. For your, Indyclone's and Indy's brother's sake, I hope it pulls through but it does seem rather dubious at the moment.Doc Whiskey said:

Not only does the poster cite Los Angeles, but so does the actual info at the top of that page:
I grew up in the greater Chicago area and I've never heard of this venue:
Not to mention the phone number:
So the first numbers are... one, two, three, four, five? That's the stupidest phone number I've ever heard in my life! The kind of thing an idiot would have on his luggage!
