For example, if you look at Pennsylvania, just two states over, you have convention centers in Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, and Philadelphia which could all accommodate a convention the size of GenCon. |

Föderation EN Mi 15.01.2025 21:25:56 @TamsynUlthara @klardotsh @hacks4pancakes Just having a venue isn't enough. That venue has to have open time on its schedule that works for the event, and those deals are made a long time in advance. Often before these laws existed Cancelling and moving means penalties come into it, and those can end the event for good. |
