Gads! That's like $1300 per TSR Con attendee.LaNasa had the audacity to ask Luke for $5000 for the right for GaryCon badge holders to also get into TSR Con for free.
Yeah at this point I've been packed in tight in so many crowds at metal festivals, casinos, airplanes, that I'm just going about life and the lack of a mask mandate would make me more likely to go. But this "Con" seems more like a game store game day or something. Is this more of an event where they are hoping that GaryCon attendees will stop by for a bit and play a game during break in GC events?I went to Gameholecon and it wasn’t a big deal. I had experiences that I would miss. Also only did I not get COVID I didn’t get con crud either.
Their whole selling point is "you can game in Gary's old house!". Hard to do that in Miami.Why does middle of nowhere Wisconsin get another D&D Con, TSR should have put their con in Miami.
For $5, there are probably some GaryCon attendees willing to pony up to see what all the fuss is about. A pity, really.OMG, I buried the lede... TSR Con is being run out of the Dungeon Hobby Shop Museum... And the events listed for all 4 days don't even total up to the first 4 hour block of Gary Con. Also, the badge prices are quite reasonable at $5 a day to get into the door (you pay to play at each table) and there about 399 badges available each day... well less on Sunday...
What is the Fire Marshall capacity of the Dungeon Hobby Shop Museum?
It's an old house.You.gotta.be.kidding.me!
that's a museum?
I got a museum on cranberry farming not far from here that's bigger than this!

There's probably a 5e setting based on cranberry farming somewhere out there; there's a 5e setting on everything nowadays. Or creepy fan-fiction; there's also a lot of that going on (The new Salvatore's book: Drizzt romance a Unadrow Were-Cranberry!).I'd rather go to the Museum of Cranberry Farming.
Maybe they have some good cranberry-adjacent RPGs?
Wait, hang on. "You give me money and I'll people into my con for free"? How does that work, like, at all? Was there some twisted logic that would have this benefit Luke in some way?LaNasa had the audacity to ask Luke for $5000 for the right for GaryCon badge holders to also get into TSR Con for free.
Luke said a hard no.
Their entire convention is nothing but another grift; another way to try to get money without doing any actual work.
