Preseason Colts Game During Gencon

[Shade]

Did anyone else's jaw drop when they read this thread title, thining that either:

a) GenCon was hosting fantasy football

or

b) An actual football game was being played at Gencon?

It would be cool if someone used Blood Bowl to come up with stats for the Colts and Bears and play out the game. With appropriate Blood Bowl substitutions of course.

James would have to worry about more than his knee in that kind of game.

Does anyone else think it's strange that us geeks are discussing football?

(Couldn't resist. I'm a serious Steeler fan myself.)

Wait until the game starts, then go eat. The fans will be at the game by then, and the restaurants will not be crowded.

Yes, during last year's GenCon the Jets played the Colts, and the Jets couldn't book any hotel rooms near the Dome. They were whining about it, and ESPN even mentioned it, except they said it was because of a Star Trek convention. :\
