Wow, great video! So much fun to watch.Thanks for sharing your Gen Con adventure...all the games, the interactions, what your days were like. I enjoyed all of it. Have fun with your amazing haul.

Thank you! It was so much fun

[@blackboardgaming5348]

I really hate that I missed you at GenCon. With that said, Billy was clowning in this one! I so love you guys banter.

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

We hated missing you as well! Hopefully we'll see you at Pax! And yes, Billie was in rare form haha

[@heathwashburn194]

It was a pleasure to meet you and play Tapple!

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

It was great to meet you as well. Tapple was so much fun!

Love that you got a hold of Gap. I’ve been having a blast teaching that game to friends and family.

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

Such a great little game. Love that it's so easy to teach

[@TheLobbyOfHobbies]

Love the look back at the con and so glad you got a nice haul. I’m so thankful for your help in picking up some games too. Jersey Strong!

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

Of course!!

We bought the same shirt! We each got one! Its so cute, my favorite GenCon shirt ever! Also since we did GenCon online all the games we bought were online so those TOTALLY count as GenCon purchases and we all know that games bought during a convention don't count as excessive!

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

It's a great shirt! Online purchases definitely count!

[@Skyrodin]

Loved the video, that was a great haul. I didn't know about the Disney's Robin Hood version of Sheriff of Nottingham. I wanted to buy that game for quite some time, now I'm happy I didn't yet. I really hope I can get that version in Germany!

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

It is so adorable! I couldn't resist

[@tabletalkreviews]

Aside from the many games of Boop I played while demoing it, the Button Shy meetup was where I played the most games during Gen Con. I also got Waffle Time from AEG and it was one of the first I've played since the con. As cute as you expect, but also a really fun game.

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

It was such a nice way to get to hang out and play some games! We are hoping to play Waffle Time this weekend!

[@mandyjo0206]

It was awesome seeing you at the ButtonShy meet up. I hadn't seen any of your videos until earlier that day. That party game you were trying looked like lots of fun. I saw that you are a big Rove fan with your shirt. That is now on my list to get to tried. I tried to order a copy this morning but they are sold out.

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

It was great to meet you too! Hopefully it will be back in stock soon! It's such a fun game!

[@Melsboardgameroom]

I'm heading to FallCon this weekend in Calgary Alberta 😊❤ watching this to pump me up.. as if I needed it. 😅😂

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

Wish I was closer! Seems like a fun con. Have a great time!

[@stacie_everdell]

Jim's video = vertigo 🤣

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

He is fired! 🤣🤣🤣

[@pickinguppiecesBC]

I had the same the idea of a blog and was like well, “that didn’t happen.” Lol It’s hard trying to do everything you want and to record. I never actually got the experience of waiting before the doors open since I was working the whole time for Board and Dice. Hopefully, can catch you guys at the next con. Be safe guys!

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

It's way too hard to vlog at the convention lol. Hopefully we will catch up with you guys at a con soon!

[@gachzorge]

So happy you pronounced fika correctly! I am looking forward to this coming to Sweden since we fika all the time. And yes, tea is totally acceptable to have for fika.

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

Thank you! It's a lovely game and I'm so glad tea works!!

[@jamesbrazeal3847]

TeamTea. Fiction looked like a real game to me. Hooky is a must buy for me eventually, I Also blame Jamie for this.

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

Have to blame Jamie 🤣

[@anita4305]

jelaous!

[@don_dad]

What was the convention in Chicago you went to?

[@H2G24life]

Is probably Shycon, a small convention for button shy

[@SecondStartotheLeft]

I went to ShyCon. The Button Shy convention.
