Sounds great. The store gave us the employee discount and some extra game shirts. Neither we were going to ask for but they wanted us to have them a thank you for the event. The store is having more general kids events in the fall and hope for us to help them out with those. The Salvation Army is also excited about working with us more. I forgot to mention the money raised goes towards their children's summer camps. We hoped to have the car done for this but we're getting very close on it.

You guys deserve the discounts and free SWAG, you probably made all those kid's night by being there. Plus you're helping bring Ghostbusters to the next generation.

That's certainly why we focus on kids events. I call it job security.

Speaking of kids. Here's a link to some more coverage of the event with a great video where several of our team are interviewed as well as Ronan's excited kid brothers.

We have our awesome team to thank for the event going so well. Everyone had fun and the event was very relaxed. We all felt like little kids again. It was great to meet so many dedicated fans as well as the local ghostheads with gear we didn't even know about. We hope to see them again soon.

Thats awesome!

wish we had something like that here, we only had like 12 preorders at my store and only like 4 people showed up for the midnight release, but in all fairness we did not really promote it as well as we could have.

Promoting is a big key. The store did heavy in-store promotion for a whole month, plus we had it on every community calendar. The two big papers in town put it on their front page on Monday and many people who came found out about it from those.
