The geeks would wait until they found a free table (sometimes up to 6 were required); pull them together (much to the dismay of the staff) and sit and eat their recently purchased lunch on them. (That was really hard to do during the SchoolHolidays).

Due mostly to Perry moving back to a University job, Geek Lunch on Wednesday died mid 2003 and is another chapter in WLUG related history.
