I never got an invite to this. I started working in the city two weeks before the shut down, so perhaps this is for the best.
But I have gone to:
A game of space ships on the frontier and brown coats, using Nerf Guns, run in a Dungeon.
A game of cosmopolitan monsters with a 20+ year history of play in countries around the world.
A private performance space, where I've met amazing friends: amazing people, magicians, performers, stars of world renowned shows, artists, gamers, cyber security wizards, and more.
Community organized get togethers for Metafilter users.
Secret Meetups for Ingress Users.
I'm sure there are more things that nobody has invited me to, I mean there is underground, and there is the center of the earth, but I would imagine that Latitude is only the tip of the iceberg, a single cavern in a vast but hidden space.
In my younger days when I lived in SF, I felt that most of the fun in the city was in it's subcultures and underground societies. The city officially closed very early 11 or 12, and then the "other" took over. I'm glad that it's not dead yet.
Same thing with the music scene in the Bay Area. There are tons of underground parties happening behind plain doors and in warehouses all over if you're part of the announcement groups on Facebook / group chat programs / info lines. Breaking into it isn't too hard but can take a few weeks of effort. The best way is, of course, to talk to someone already part of that scene and have them show you around :)
