Our wings are not tired

Believe me, if we don't have it, we'll get it. We love board games. I'm pretty sure we have it along with the expansion so that we can play up to 6 players.

Yeah, at some point I was going to ask what you have, and whether I should bring anything down (Ticket to Ride Europe, LoTR Risk, Acquire, etc.). You have Bohnanza I believe, no?

I've never played the Catan games, although I have heard of them.

You know what's fun, though? Mall of Horror.

It's essentially Dawn of the Dead: The Board Game.

Any of you played SET? [link] We played at work recently and it was surprisingly addictive and fun.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.

I hope to learn something by reading this thread. Do you all feel the immense pressure?

SET never appealed to me, although the game store folks in NY were always recommending it (along with Lost Cities).
