Social Networking @ the Bowling Alley

This evening a couple hundred people headed out to to the local lanes for a little bowling and real-life social networking. Apparently one of the panelists organized the event last year and it was a sensation, so SXSW vets were looking forward to it.

Alas! I started out slow and though I ended up w/2 strikes and a couple of spares, it was too little, too late and our pickup team didn’t make it past the first round of the tournament. No prob., the networking was much better.

The folks back home will appreciate this next tidbit: I noticed that one of the guys bowling against us was named “Rob Goodlatte” (on nametag). I asked him if he was “from Roanoke, VA?”. Yes. Was he “Bob Goodlatte’s son?” (Goodlatte the former congressman from Roanoke). Yes.

Turns out junior is a student @ Duke University and he does some pretty good front end Web design. No Clients is Roanoke, yet.

    The Avalonstar event is definitely great. I’m going to try to put a pool together to give Brian a Thank You gift for putting it all together.
