For starters, all the cool kids don’t call Portland ‘Portland’ – it’s PDX. Or Stumptown. Or Porkland (home of the other white meat) if you were a Tom Leykis listener.

To get a handle on the Portland scene there is one place you should stop, check out, register for and then bookmark, it’s TNA Board’s Portland section, which is the biggest board in the pacific northwest. In addition to PDX area ads you can find reviews, links, and discussion for the hobby in and around Portland.
