Grand Opening at Gaming Goat St. Paul.

The Gaming Goat in St. Paul is operated by Jeremy, who is one of the founding members of Nerd Nite Duluth. He still returns to Duluth for nearly every Nerd Nite to host, so in my mind, he’s still part of Duluth, and so his shop is worth a visit the next time you are in St. Paul.

It’s chock full of the coolest board games, and the store offers a 20 to 30 percent discount off the suggested retail on all products, making it competitive with most online shops. The playspace is still under development, but it’s very cool, too.

The next Nerd Nite will be on Oct. 24, 7:30 p.m. at Teatro Zuccone. Swing by, listen to some nerds, and ask about the Gaming Goat.
