For some reason I had in my mind the scene from the Simpsons episode where
Mr Burns decides to cut off the workers' supply of donuts. you know, the
scene where the donut guy has the box of donuts under his arm, swinging a
chain around his head, holding the workers back. Lenny (or is it Carl?)
tries to go for the donuts and the guy smacks him down with the chain;
"Anybody else wanna be a hero?"

Now, the image I had was at GenCon, with Tynes, a hardback copy of UA2 under
his arm, whirling a dicebag around his head by the drawstring, holding back
us fanboys. Minister goes for the book; Tynes smacks him down. We shrink
back, but Tim B. tries and is soundly thrashed by a wiry but tense Greg
Stolze, wailing into him like a banshee on crack.

Later that day, the Palladium table is destroyed by rampaging UA fans.
