Duke's Video Game Challenge

Hey all, I just wanted to let you know that I have some pictures and a story posted at Catfish Stew, from Duchscherer's video game challenge that happened last night at Gordon Biersch in Tempe.

I saw str8arrow there, and I'm sure there were a couple other ANers attending, but I didn't run across them.

Here are a couple bonus pictures just for you, AN:

We had a great time!

Two highlights:

We got there early and my oldest son was playing one of the game machines.  He was pitching as Harden and Harden himself came up to him and hung out with him for a bit and gave him pointers.

The same son approached DJ and asked him to sign a baseball card for his teacher because DJ is his teacher's favorite player.  DJ said "I'm someone's favorite player??  Wow!"

All the players were so nice and accommodating.  My middle son's dream came true when he finally got Bradley's autograph (and a picture with him as well!)

P.S.

Does anybody know why Street, Zito, and the "Special Guest" didn't show?  And, who the Special Guest was supposed to be?
