It’s said the meek shall inherit the earth, but the geek will inherit Sioux City this weekend. The Sioux City Geek Convention, or GeekCon, opens today (Friday). Organizer and president Skyler Gorsett says they’ll be showcasing video and tabletop games of all types, anime viewings, artists, comics, cosplay, and more at the Sioux City Convention Center.
If you aren’t familiar with all of the lingo, Gorsett explains T-T-R-P-Gs.
Gorsett says this 8th Sioux City GeekCon promises to be the biggest yet, with integrated community organizations, a massive increase in vendor and artist booths, and a long list of regional tournaments that will bring in gamers from all over. There will also be video game tourneys.
GeekCon runs through Sunday. Admission is free for kids, while adults will be charged a fee. There will be a silent auction and raffle, the profits from which go towards convention costs.
