I'm pulling out of my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time trying to drive to work.

Okay, today, I just got back from Hascon. So today's podcast is all about Hascon, 2017.

Okay, so let me start by explaining what is Hascon. So back in 1998 Wizards of the coast was purchased by

Hasbro a giant toy company who makes many fine products that you probably know um and hasbro uh so

about six months ago i I was approached by Whitney.

Whitney does, she's one of the people that plans the events for us.

And she said, hey Mark, what are you doing in September?

So for those to know, I don't travel a lot.

Usually I go to San Diego Comic-Con and one other place during the course of the year.

I tried to only travel twice a year. But I had not yet committed my second travel yet. And Whitney said,

we are doing, there's a brand new convention called Hascon. So Hasbro basically was doing a convention

that was supporting all of its brands and as magic is one of its

brands its second largest brand um they wanted us involved and um we really wanted to sort of

make the first year as special as possible so when he was really excited and wanted me to come and i

said yes because i'd never been to hascon being there never been in hascon i said i couldn't miss the

first hascon.

So I signed up.

And so today I'm going to walk you through sort of all that was my Han-Con experience.

Okay, first let me explain exactly what it is.

So the idea was it's a convention that plays up all of Hasbro's different properties.

So let me walk through. I'm not going to name all the properties, but I'll do my best.

So Hasbro has a lot of very famous properties.
