    Thanks for taking us with you. The only thing I could relate to was the Keebler elf and the cupcakes.😂 I am absolutely not a gamer of any sort but I enjoyed the video and I'm glad you guys had fun.

    Looks like so much fun! I am a Cosplayer - used to do NY Comicon all 4 days - can't walk it anymore. I sure do miss it. The energy there is incredible.

    How fun! I’ve never heard of this con but love board games. Thanks for sharing with us. I have the Axis vs Allies game with an expansion pack. I’d never heard of it and then they were looking for it. Guess I’d best bring it out of storage. Hello, eBay. Haha That looks like a difficult, long game. Love that you all have game nights.

    Thanks for showing us a unique gathering and event. Hearing you walked over five miles makes my feet hurt for you. My feet wouldn't want to feet any longer. Large tight quartered crowds after a time get me ready for the open spaces. Glad you had fun.

    Interesting. My son is a gamer. Didn't know it was this popular. He does a game night on Fridays. His game has figures that he paints and then uses them in the game. Sorry can't remember the name of it. Looked like you had fun.

    I thought it was about computer games. I have no idea it was about board games. Some of the names I have heard of, but most of them not. Are there not games with Groku in it? It was fun to watch. Thank you for taking us along. ❣️

    Does GEN stand for Gaming Enthusiasts Network? That's my best guess.

    • @robertdean52
      @robertdean52 Год назад +2

      That’s not a bad answer, but in fact, it’s for Lake GENeva, Wisconsin, which is where the show was founded in 1968, and its home until 1977 when growth caused the first move. Indianapolis is the 4th city to host Gen Con, and its home since 2003.

    • @robertdean52
      @robertdean52 Год назад

      Gen Con is all flavors of table top games, with board games probably having the most representation. There are also collectible card games (e.g. Magic the Gathering), role playing games (e.g. Dungeons & Dragons), and games played with miniature figures (e.g. Warhammer), in approximate order of the amount of representation. Plus a whole lot of gamer-adjacent activity; cosplay, crafts, puppetry, music, dancing, etc.
