Nope, it's not coming anywhere near me, as usual.
But thank GOD it's coming to the "Rib America Festival' in Indiana.

@ZeroPayn My thoughts exactly.
Would a stop in KC really be that terrible?

I'm in Sacramento, CA but I'm not paying for the fair admission just to try out Kinect. Screw that, but nice to see they are actually coming here.

but what if an awesome/terrible musician is at the fair on one of those days, like Weird Al Yankovic or Huey Lewis and the News? i've never seen a higher concentration of mullets and tank tops anywhere else in California than at the State Fair :)

Disappointed? I'm pleased Philly will be spared the traveling band of sketchy guys in trenchcoats following this tour around around the country just to get a peak at children playing with Skittles.

Love how MN is in both the West Coast and the East Coast! Went to MOA on the 14th and it was already set up, sadly they were just doing the testing and some filming? Didn't see any cameras but there were signs up saying that it was a filming location. I didn't get to try it out but it looked pretty sweet, made me want to get one at least, I'll probably try it when it hits the state fair here.

Lies and deceit. This is coming nowhere near the middle of the country. Where's the love for Nebraska/Iowa/Kansas/Missouri?
Screw all you bastards who ignore us. Jerks. These things never come anywhere near here.
