I would have no interest in the expanding table. Hosting an event that included serving formal dinners for more than 6 people sounds like torture to me.

Those tables are a whole lot cooler than our family's dining room table, which was theoretially expandable. Meaning that we had to yank, pull, and tug with all abandon to separate the two halves of the circle, and then heave the two over-heavy planks that bridged the newly-formed gap into place. Of course, the one or two times a year growing up that this had to be done, my dad gleefully yelled out orders to my little brother and I, as if we were his new recruits to his army squad. Which, of course, we pretty much were.
I hate that damned table. My parents still have it. They say it's an antique and worth X and Y, but I want to inherit it desperately, and have a gleeful bonfire as befits our honored family. I bed Dad knows it, too.

The requirements of the game room we're eventually going to build when we buy a new home is a wet bar, 60" + TV, fooseball table, and a pinball machine.

If you offered me a scotch and plain water, I'd drink a scotch and plain water.
Make it yourself like a good chap, left hand. Bar's in the globe.
