HEY! Nerds/Geeks/Fan Boys! The Emerald City Comicon is over for this year, and we’re hoping you got your groove on as you drooled all over Adam Baldwin and hundreds of men walking around in Spandex suits, but just in case you didn’t make a Love Connection at the ‘con this year, we’re giving you a second chance later this month…We’ve teamed up with Gay City once again for another installment of their popular speed dating party, “Meet Market”, once again at The Lobby Bar and happening on Wednesday, April 25, 2012 starting at 6:30pm. And, this time it’s for the Inner Fan Boy in ALL of us…here’s some skinny from the Gay City press release:
The spring thaw is just around the corner, and Gay City Health Project and Seattle Gay Scene are heating things up again with the return of The Meet Market on Wednesday, April 25. Thirty geeky men and their admirers will descend on The Lobby Bar for a chance to meet new guys, make new friends, or even walk away with the man of their dreams.
The April edition of The Meet Market will be Geek Night. Guys in attendance are encouraged to celebrate all things geek by coming in their favorite movie, comic book, television, or game character costume. Meet Market attendees will vote on the best costume of the evening, and the winner will receive 2 tickets to BUMP, the Northwest’s Hottest Halloween Party.
Continuing the tradition of their successful previous Meet Market events, Gay City and Seattle Gay Scene are spicing up the spring edition of The Meet Market with a new hostess, the ever-fabulous former Seattle Empress, Precious Cargo.
“How fun and exciting,” gushed Miss Cargo upon hearing that she’d been asked to host the event, adding, “I’m looking forward to the event!”
Whether you’re new to the Seattle dating scene or just looking for a fabulous, fresh, and fun opportunity to meet some new guys, The Meet Market is sure to please. People are encouraged to preregister early to ensure their chance to join in the fun before it sells out.
“Part of Gay City’s mission of building a health community is continuing to bring opportunities for guys to connect with one another,” says Executive Director Fred Swanson, adding, “Whether you meet a new friend or find the love of your life, speed dating is a great way to make a connection!”
The Meet Market will take place at The Lobby Bar on E Pike from 6:30pm to 8:30pm, where 30 guys will meet for three-minute dates. The event only costs $20 to attend, and is sponsored by the Seattle HIV Vaccine Trials Unit.
