Anybody here heard whether or not the riots in the Twin Cities area has affected FFG and its staff in any way? I hope they're all doing ok.

I live in MN, the FFG building is about 8 miles away and across the river from where things are really bad. I’ve been checking on lists of damaged businesses and I haven’t seen any near where FFG is located. Most of the damage is being done in two locations, one in Minneapolis and another in St. Paul. Every where else here is mostly dealing with smaller incidents.

I’ll post if I hear anything about them in the local news.

You're not close to the craziness, are you? If so, stay safe!

One sad bit of news on a tangentially-related business...

It's my understanding that the owner of Uncle Hugo's Bookstore (who donate cool books every year as prizes for Arkham Nights) tweeted last night that the store was burned and he's likely looking at a total loss. 😥

That's terrible! It's one of my favorite author's favorite stores to do book signings at.

No, we’re well out of the area. But like KBlumhardt said it’s small business like Uncle Hugo’s that are taking the worst of it.
