August 17-20, 2017 in Indianapolis.
Exhibit registration begins in November.
What are the chances of getting a table for Go.Fight.Pow!?
If you really want to grow the game, this is where you need to be. 201,852 unique visitors last year, and this year being GenCon 50 will be EPIC!
If you want to plan on putting together an exhibit for GenCon 50, I will pledge my help running the booth all four days and helping this awesome game explode!
Please, think about it...seriously.

I've been supporting The Konishoner with my promoting of the game over Twitter to buying the Fight Pass option and it would be cool if Eric can attend GenCon 50. I can't be their in person, but if there is another way I can help I am offering...

GenCon is the mecca of conventions. If the IFC game ever hit there, that could produce LOTS of repeat customers.

Just got off the phone now with the main lady in charge of my area. It's $1,000 for the 4 days of the con. Not sure on hotel prices, but I have to apply first, then be accepted. If accepted, I pay for booth. Anyone live close enough that I could stay with them to save on motel? Maybe I should start a GoFundMe with perks to help get booth and get me there! I'm serious, I want this bad, but would have to crowdfund it to make it happen.
Let me know what you guys think. It's it the way to go? I wouldn't do it without perks for people.

I can support with funds for sure and you might want to try a GoFundMe with perks...

Hotel accommodations are going fast, and we're looking at around $400 for 4 nights.
First question, how many floor passes do you get for $1000 booth price? In other words, am I going to need to purchase tickets for the entire event, or will I get in as a Go.Fight.Pow! associate?

You will stay with me bro. Don't worry about lodgings. Worry about getting a booth, and I will take care of lodgings. If you want to fly to my place, like we did when you went to GCon with me, we will drive to the hotel from my place. If you want to drive, we can meet up at the hotel (or family's house if I go that route). You tell me what you're thinking regarding travel and we'll work it out. I have lots of family in town, but I'm not sure that I want to stay with any of them for four days lol.

If we're doing this, we're going to have Go.Fight.Pow! polo shirts! www.logosportswear.com is definitely the place to have those custom polos made should you and Eric do this. Very reasonable prices and no limitations on the number of shirts or other types of clothing. Give them a look. That's how I got my uniforms done.

Just to update everyone regarding ongoing discussions from last night between The Konishoner and myself. If we get into GenCon and only manage to sell to 1% of the people expected to pass by we would sell 2500 units of the game, that equates to $25,000. Just wait, it gets even crazier. If we sell to 5% of the people (it is only a $10 ring for a bunch of gamers), then we will sell 12,500 units of the game, that equates to $125,000. Eric's comment to me was: "I'm happy with 1%." LOL! Even 2.5% is 6250 units, which is $62,500. As much as it scares me, I honestly believe that we might sell 2500 in the first day alone, simply because how quickly you can demo the game with someone, and how the game instantly grabs your attention. Moreover, Eric wants to bring a brand new set of 16 fighters, plus one Con SE card, in addition to all his other inventory. I would also bring both my Battle Packs to sell. If we can make this happen, think of what this community might become. I am excited!

Eric, I live close enough that it's almost a straight shot up the street (parking though is another story)

I hope this happens and GenCon can give this great game a boost. As I said before, I can give support with funding of what area might be needed...
