Owl Con 2020 Rice University in Houston Gaming Convention

[Warshield73]

Owlcon 2020 is set for February 28 - March 1. If any of you are in the Houston area this is a great convention with a really unusual feel as most of the games are held in individual classrooms making it a far more personal and less distracting atmosphere than most cons.

I will be running four PB games this year and I am the only one running PB games. Sign ups started right around Christmas but there are still plenty of spots in several games left.
