If you build it, they will come: Bootleggers Ball 2018

By derek on March 06, 2018

Invite 2 Alright, we're holding our first Old School event. The Bootleggers Ball will be held on May 26th in Nashville, TN at the Flying Saucer. An obvious tip of the hat to the great Lords of the Pit who hold their annual (hopefully) event, the Players Ball in Chicago, where a couple of our own mages have battled before. We're hoping for a good turn out. We'll have 6-10 locals and have some interest out of the old school community in Atlanta as well. The venue, Flying Saucer, is a small chain draught emporium with a ton of beer on tap and German fare. I'll soon be sending out an invite for the event on related old school Facebook pages and Reddit. Hopefully the word will spread. Please feel free to contact us with interest or questions at [email protected].
