Who here plays board games?

It seems like most if not all the back end "computer admin/support" people we have are MMO gamers. What surprised me is that a couple of our team members who are in their mid 40's and 50's take it to the next level. They are also into board games.

Completely surprised by it, as I sincerely thought they are pretty much the exception to what society expects people to do as a hobby at their age. That perception of mine changed when I attended ComicCon in San Diego last month. I was shocked by the incredible diversity of people when entering the board game rooms set up in one of the adjacent hotels. Board gamers came in all ages, sexes, colors and sizes.


Amongst the GFY members, friends and family, do you play board games?
If yes what games do you prefer playing?
Is this something you are doing at home among friends and family, or do you find local spots where other board gamers meet up occasionally?
