RE: 2 Weeks to GenCon Indianapolis

Screaming Knight?  Is that before (price) or after (taste) a pint?

Which company?

When I'm not running games during the day, I'll probably be in the
dealers
room so I might find you first.

It sounds like the businesses around Indianapolis got the message last
year
and will be much better prepared.  Last year most expeced the gamers to
be a
normal convention crowd, but reseraunts ended up running out of food and
loosing business as they closed right when the gamers were done playing
and
wanted to eat, so the Steak-n-Shake was always busy.  Well a couple
places I
know of are trying to the the gamers money by staying open 24 hours
while
showing sci-fi and fantasy movies all night, and rolling out gamer
themed
menus, brewing a special beer (Screaming Knight Pale Ale at the RAM).
