I imagine you already have overpriced poorly made severed replica Van Gogh ears ready for delivery to all the French Impressionist rubes that attend.
I just got my VG replica balloon from Gambit Industries, and it’s fantastic…it’s earless and looks just like the original, no?

Nice. I heard tickets are hard to come by. We saw an exhibit several years ago in Philadelphia at the Museum of Art. It was awe inspiring. By the way, is the Fairgambit Christmas tree up and festooned for the season?
Depending on date and number of tickets, they can be hard to come by, but they are still available for many dates. It runs through February 6, 2022. Here is the link: vangoghpittsburgh.com
We got ours a few months ago.

Thanks for asking about our Christmas Tree. We typically head out to our favorite tree farm just 10 days to 2 weeks before Christmas because we leave our Tree up into February. In fact, we will be going this week, but our joy will be tempered as Mrs. Gambit is facing some medical tests this week and we are both concerned. I won't get into specifics at this time but her situation could be nothing or very serious. We expect to know preliminary results before Christmas. I will post something as we know more, although my wife is a very private person and I will yield to her wishes as to details.

I hope all works out for your wife. 🙏

I attended a showing/viewing/event (whatever the proper term is) around Thanksgiving, and I would not recommend it to the average person who is not really into the arts.

Don’t want to give away the “unknowns” so I’ll just say I did not care for the method of presentation. It’s not like going to a museum, which I can certainly enjoy.

I thought it has been way overhyped and seemed more like a money making scheme.

Hope anyone else who attends enjoys their experience more.

Hope all goes fine with the Lady Gambit, fair.
God Speed, I'll include the Lady in my short prayers this evening.

This is what we’re up against! Do you think Penn State can compete with Pitt recruiting if they see the Van Gogh balloon? The silver lining is this gives yet another option to take away from attendees at Pitt games.
