Gygax became involved with playing wargames in the mid-1960's. He created a wargames convention in his hometown in 1968, named the Geneva Convention, or Gen Con for short. Role playing game enthusiasts gathered annually for the convention. Over time, the convention grew in popularity and moved to larger venues in the area. It was held in nearby Milwaukee from 1985 until 2003, when it moved to its current home of Indianapolis.
