Thanks Lloyd for posting the summary!

As I arrived, Matt alterted me to a minor emergency: we had a big banner on stage, but none at our table. I embarked on a 45-minute odeyssey around central Boston, sprinting from one closed Kinko's to another, 'till finally I found one, downloaded FSP logos off the website and printed 'em. The result is not as professional as I'd like (see the photos); on the other hand, we had pro-quality branding on the mainstage, and a many many people stopped by to ask what we're all about.

Jon and Dave each did an awesome job chatting with folks, converting questioning onlookers into allies. You guys rock.
I wish so bad that we had video of Rocketman/Matt... he spend a solid minute and a half on the maintage talking up the FSP, then launched the bright green flying discs into the crowd. I wandered thru the crowd and gave out at least 200 KFP-MA copies :)

I was amazed and frankly unprepared for how many people were there from NH. Only one of the dozen-plus people from NH who stopped by our table had ever heard of the FSP. I think 2-3 people knew about the KFP. None had heard of the NHLA; I gave the NHLA website to all NH residents.

Moral of the story: at any event in surrounding states, be sure and have some NHLA schwag in case they want to help us on the political front. And of course, I SHOULD have brought NHFree.com schwag and FTL schwag. We have so much great product! :D

Wow, Lloyd was smiling!
It's not his fault! I forced him to smile, with a covert operation!  :icon_pirat:

My thought as well . . . I'm thinking why is Lloyd so happy at this event?   :-X

Thanks for doing this guys - YOU ROCK!
(Next year I'll try to plan ahead better and be there with you.)

Did you notice, though, how even when Lloyd is smiling, his mouth is still turned downwards.

John

Maybe he's just trying not to let us know he's having a good time?
He has that right!  And, I won't question him.   ;D

I was grimacing smiling on purpose for effect
