GenCon Game Show Pictures

Thanks to everyone for making these events a lot of fun! It was nice to see repeat faces from Origins including members from Revenge of the Gallant Goats, B&M (Bitchers and Moaners), The Flying Pigs, and Unemployeed in Greenland. Special thanks to Sid Byrd for emailing many of these pictures.

When asking a question about the number of Girl Scouts in 2002, we learned that a sweet girl from Team Stiff Guinea Pig was a member of the Girl Scouts until she got kicked out for hitting another girl over the head with her water bottle! Not surprisingly, the answer that paid out was "2.3 million -1".

Paying out the $100 prize in $10 bills (known as Hamiltons) in front of Team Hamiltonz which was the 2nd place team. Their response: "Burrrrrr!" (and perhaps taking the below picture).

Are you surprised that this is the only picture I took for this event? I must have lost my focus...

Getting people to sing and dance like Michael Jackson for a bonus chip. It was especially humorous to see the Panty Explosion and the Irish Mafia taking part in such shenanigans.

Career Highlight:

Being asked by a women from the Sporting Woodies at the WBC to sign her shirt across her breasts. Satish and I felt like rock stars for that brief moment...
