"Maybe there is something to this fantasy nonsense." (Comic signed Swenston & Stafford -- presumably Steve Swenston and perhaps Greg Stafford, Dragon magazine #11, December 1977, showing 2 men in traditional business suits behind the Avalon Hill booth at Origins '77, surrounded by fantasy characters)

The first two Origins Game Fairs were held in Baltimore, Maryland, home of board wargame publisher Avalon Hill, which co-ran those early conventions. The "Origins" name paid respect to Avalon Hill as the publisher of the first modern commercial wargames in the 1950s. The third Origins was held in July 1977 in Staten Island, New York, by which time fantasy gaming was becoming a more dominant part of gaming business and culture.

My cousin thought it would be funny to spy on me while I was getting dressed. He thought it was even funnier when he found out I wear briefs 😳

Stafford Trap

Another Chess trap! This one is pretty famous due to International Master Eric Rosen. It comes out of his favorite gambit, the Stafford.

Stafford is just good for White (there's a very educational Daniel Naroditsky video explaining why). However, Bg5 is an easy to make blunder and it gives Black an amazing resource.

Free queen?

No. Somehow Black makes checkmate with a knight and both bishops. Respect the minor pieces.
