game night
Fun times at GeekWire Game Night. This year’s event will be held Tuesday at the Spitfire bar.

Board games are cool again —with the South Park crew even playing some board games in the final scene of the most recent episode.

Game NightBut we’ve been convening board game nerds for years, and we’ll be doing it again Tuesday night at the Spitfire bar in Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood for our annual GeekWire Game Night and Meetup.

We’ll be busting out fan favorites such as Settlers of Catan and Ticket to Ride, and converting the back room into a full casino, courtesy of Game Night sponsor Double Down Interactive. Also be sure to connect with Game Night sponsor Amazon.com.

Tickets are still available, so make sure to get your friends and join this action-packed evening.

Not into playing games? No worries. This is a fun meetup, first and foremost, so just join the crowd and get to know some of your fellow geeks.

Here are the details you need to know for Tuesday night’s shindig.
