Welcome to the games whats new
Board Game Barrister

Since November 2005 the Board Game Barrister has been bringing the joy of board games to families throughout Milwaukee.

That's right, board games: sit-'round-the-table games, tickle-the-brain games, interact-with-people games, learn-without-being-taught games. Fun.

When you visit the Board Game Barrister, you may see two rather oddly different things than you might expect. First, there is simply so much to see. Hundreds of games will greet your eyes and tickle your imagination. Something new and different, no matter how many games you have played before.

Second, many games are open on the counter, behind the counter, and in the gaming area, ready for you to touch, feel, and play. See if the box you first liked is a winner of a game, or be surprised to discover a game whose box you might not have given more than a glance. The Board Game Barrister is on a mission to remind the world that games are meant to be played, face to face, one person at a time.

Come visit the Board Game Barrister and rediscover that it matters not what you play, it matters that you play.

Gurnee Mills store closing
I am sad to report that our Gurnee Mills store's lease expires at the end of this month and will not be renewed. The Gurnee Mills store's last day will be Sunday, January 22, 2012.
Until then, we are having a pretty amazing help-us-clear-out-the-store sale: buy one item, get a second half-off - OR - buy two items, get three items free. At the Gurnee Mills store only, of course. Some exceptions apply.
I apologize to all our Gurnee regulars. You are a great bunch, and it has been great fun serving you these past three years. Please visit us up in Milwaukee when you can. We'll keep you posted on our new locations (including a possible return to northern Illinois) on our Barrister's Brief newsletter, and on Facebook.
Sincerely,
-Gordon B Lugauer
"the" Board Game Barrister, himself
