Did anyone used to go there? Me and my friends used to go every Friday night at one point in middle school for some quake 2 and Starcraft.

I went to one lan party when I was in highschool. All my football friends walked in and made fun of me.
Never Again.

Yes, I've been a few times. Place was gay. I had lots of fun raping kiddies in CS.
Charles's son was often in there. His alias was TheFrog. Don't ask why I remember that, I just remember one night him asking his dad to change the map to Italy so he could show us how good he was

Not sure about that. Charles was the owner that I worked with. He worked with me at Oreck Vacuums of by the Wal-Mart. He aunt owned the Oreck store so he would help out when she needed him to.

I think his brother was Mike or something like that. I remember Charles being more active there though. He later sold it to a friend of mine I think who tried to keep it open but it was always struggling

Never went. Computer Evolutions by my house tried to do it and instantly failed. My friends and I had LAN parties all the time. My hardware was ahead of theirs so we generally just played Wolf ET and COD 1. Nowadays we'd probably still only be able to play MW2.

I was in middle school so I had no control over my household hardware. Basically I couldn't play quake 2 at home. I kept telling my dad we needed a 3d accelerator but he wasn't interested. He thought he did it big because we upgraded to the pentium 133 with a 56 k modem.

I remember being blown away when all the games on our computer suddenly talked after we added a soundblaster card.

I bet I know you then. I didn't work there, but I was there a lot 10 years ago. You guys helped me with my very first build back in 03. An ECS motherboard that had like 20 jumpers on it, couldn't figure out why it wouldn't boot.
EDIT: What a lame 5000th post.
