Why Do I Go to Gen Con?

By Jason, on August 21st, 2009

ffocag-gen-con-logo I love going to Gen Con. Each year about late July I start requesting days off from work in order to attend Gen Con on Saturday and Sunday.

After a three and a half hour drive, I met the rest of the crew and we drove the rest of the way to Indianapolis together. After checking into the hotel room, we hit the convention center.
