Anyone here from Chicagoland headed to IL states?

Never been to a contest before, not sure what to expect. I’m not planning on competing or anything, just want to hang out around other throwers.

I’m going, and probably competing (for the first time).

They didn’t tell you about the ritual razor edged yo-yo fights … to the death?

I remember the first GA States I went to a long while back, met a lot of cool people there.

I plan on going too…but the financing is sketchy…and I’m not from Chicagoland…I’m from downstate Capitol city…Springfield!

So to expand on my question, what should I bring? If I’m just spectating and hanging out, just a couple of throws, my whole bag/setup? Is there a lot of bst going on in person? Just curious, don’t want to be unprepared.

As a Minnesotan, I’d love to, but I’m committed to driving down next weekend for Thanksgiving with my girlfriend’s family (also I’m busy with school). Hope it goes well for everyone attending!
