Just like that? What's the catch?! :roll: 8)

Very nice offer from you! :D

The "catch" is that you have to run events, he had already offed to do so. I run 4-6 Hero System RPG events and get my convention pass for free and $40 in vouchers good for food.

@Barton - Hope you're not driving to Indy for Origins. It's in Columbus, Ohio.

@Nameless & Skrit - Row faster! :trampolin:

Actually, yes, most of the conventions here have a way to get your hotel room and entry fee covered for running events or volunteering somehow. (I've tried to lure you in in years past to Gen Con, but Origins does the same, too.) It's how I afford to go. And Origins is several hours closer by car than Gen Con, so I'll be driving to it.

I should have said Columbus Ohio not Indy (I am going to GenCon in Indianapolis, IN this year also, reason for my confusion).
The offer still stands of a free car ride from ORD (O'Hare Airport) to Columbus, if he can afford the plane ride and we can coordinate schedules.

Then I may see you there, too, as I work with the MHE Crew that does the painting events and competition. (actually, been working with them for 5 years so we may have already met...)
