Reply To: GenCon 2020 Cancelled.

Besides all the obvious reasons there is another.  The state of Indiana has started to open and is headed to phase 3 as of this coming Friday.   Indianapolis is not opening up and has no plan for opening.  Downtown will be a ghost town by the end of summer as businesses that have grown or moved in to be part of the expanded tourist traffic are closing permanently.

I am pretty sure that to allow GenCon out of their 2020 obligations a deal was struck to add on the extra 2 years to the contract.  Not sure if this is going to be enough.  GenCon already had a very vocal group wanting to leave Indianapolis and this could lead to more internal strife.

 

Oh well I hope we can get past this and get back to normal.
