Penny Arcade Expo will be getting a second show on the East Coast

The PAX, better known as the Penny Arcade Expo is always held in Seattle and is growing rapidly. Last year, about 39,000 people went to the PAX for three days of gaming. Jerry Holkins, the writer of the Penny Arcade web comic, has said it will also have a second expo on the East Coast and we may see it going global sometime in the future.
Since its inception in 2004, the Seattle, Washington-based Penny Arcade Expo--PAX for short--has grown in leaps and bounds. Last year's open-to-the-public event saw 39,000 gamers pack themselves into the Washington State Convention and Trade Center for a three-day celebration of tabletop role-playing, console, and PC gaming. For this year's show, the organizers are doubling the exhibition hall space to accommodate more than 70 companies displaying their wares for the crowd.

    Hah. I just hope I make it to the first expo. One of the very few perks of being a Washington resident, and I need to take advantage of it.
