Oh? a New Format?
That's right, we're doing something new again boyos

Game Diego's always been about games, but big games hold a special place in our heart. They're special events. You can't just get eight friends to show up at your house, can you? Of course you can't. It's literally impossible. I can't even name eight people, much less afford all the bolos, duct tape and taser guns I'd need to capture them and drag them into my den. Wouldn't it be nice if someone tricked convinced other people to do that for you?
Announcing CRAZY EIGHTS!
For exactly $0.00 more than standard admission, you can book a CRAZY EIGHTS ticket. The way that works is that we will schedule you to play three large-format 8-player games from 2PM to 6PM, with breaks in-between. There will be time to have regular games after dinner.
You will be given a schedule, and for each of your 3 games, you will be placed in a random pool of new friends, with the optional inclusion of anyone you came with if you desire. All games will be taught, and will run for no more than an hour, some of which will have fun props!
