Summary
Andrew Ashby is a local game store owner in Provo Utah. His goal was to make his store the coolest place to play D&D. The store looks and feels like a medieval tavern, and stock locally brewed mead and snacks. He wanted to give anyone a chance to play D&D, so every night they have open DM's to play, free books, miniatures, tv tables, and terrain to use. They host Dungeon Master classes and painting classes to encompass the other parts of the hobby. This year Andrew got to live out an 8-year dream of his to host the biggest game of D&D ever played.
