This was a great day. In the morning I played Night of the Living Brat Pack. It was a combination of The Breakfast Club and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off with zombies. I had played with the GM before in a Mallrats game that was awesome. This game was just as good and I had a [...]

By: Bryan; February 17th, 2009 · No Comments
