It is one of my favorite weeks of the year, the week building up to gen Con Indy. Being a regular attendee since 2004, I get a bit jazzed as the week progresses. It also helps that it is only a two hour drive from here in Illiniois. I figured I'd share some of the photos I've nabbed from the last three years. I am still old school and perfer actualy film to digital. I know that is completley archaic. I have had a digital camera with me, via Manders, the last three years, and it does make it easier to share these photos with the interweb.
