Message: <blockquote data-quote="Brown Jenkin" data-source="post: 65012" data-attributes="member: 2572">Forgive me if this is a dupe but heavy server traffic may have lost my first one.Those of us here in Indy (and thats what we normally call it) don't realy have a name for ourselves. As for Gen Con I think most people will be pleasently surprised. The Indianapolis Convention Center is many times the size of Milwaukee's, so no more wandering outside to find the Arena and seminars in the hotels. And speaking of hotels there are 4 conected via walkways plus more than enough in the downtown area within walking distance to house everyone (This is in part due to the fact that we regulary house 200,000-500,000 people for the races).  Downtown is also a thriving place with enough restaurants that are open late to probably seat everybody. And there are plenty of other things to, you can check out <a href="http://www.indy.org" target="_blank">www.indy.org</a> and <a href="http://www.indyarts.org." target="_blank">www.indyarts.org.</a> Well that should be enough cheerleading for now, and no I don't work for the Convention Bureau.As for the moving of GenCon while I have been going regularly since the early 90s I have never been happy with the cramped nature of the site, so I think that Gen Con in Indy will be quite nice. While some Wisconsin folks will no longer be able to make it (And we will miss them) there will be many more people who were not able to go before because of the distance that will start coming now.</blockquote>
