World's Largest Game Store - The Sentry Box

I was joined by Gordon Johansen, owner of the World's Largest Game Store - The Sentry Box.
Communities are not just bound by borders - they are often comprised of people with shared passions. A friendly local game store (FLGS) is a unique place where people can connect with each other, create memories, and build community.
Celebrating over 40 years of operation, the Sentry Box in Calgary, Alberta has grown to become the world’s largest game store. It has achieved this incredible milestone by being an inviting and welcoming space for people of all backgrounds to enjoy table top games, such as Dungeons and Dragons.
We share the unique history of the Sentry Box by interviewing the owner, long-time customers, current and former employees, and local industry influencers who have all been connected by the friendly local game store.

My first visit to Sentry Box was when it was little slip of a shop on Crowchild, just off Kensington, with books, boxes, and miniatures packed in everywhere. I've been going to Sentry Box as they have moved to larger and larger locations ever since. Kudo's to Gord for lasting and being part of the gaming community!

Been a customer for over 35 years now and Gord has certainly made Calgary a better place to live with the store and the community he's built around The Sentry Box and having an amazing staff throughout the years that match his love for gaming. It's definitely an honor to have my Space Marine cosplay on display at the store! I'll have to stop by again soon and pickup all those Out-of-Print games!
