Con on the Cob has come, and sadly gone, for 2018.
We fools (and honorary fool Brad) would like to take a moment to thank each and every Attendee who stopped by the booth, demo tables, or clucked around in our Dungeons and Dragons One Shot. We met new friends, reconnected with old friends, and had an absolute amazing time. A bird may not have the time to fart, But fools do! (thank you Andy, Chad can’t get that out of his head.)

…And Origins is a wrap! It was a great show, and we are ecstatic with how well the show went for us.
Between the demos we ran, the connections we made, and the Kickstarter backers we were able to meet when they picked up their loot, this was a dream come true.
Here are some of the images we were able to get from the event.

While Origins is over, that’s not the end of the story for Oh Cluck!, or Foolish Media!. On top of all of the demos we ran, we spent a significant portion of our time meeting other businesses, and working on new and exciting partnerships.
Stay tuned, great things are coming!

Con on the Cob 2017 is now officially in the books, but we wanted to tell you about the weekend!
First, Thank you to every single person who stopped by the booth, and checked out the demo. Even if the game wasn’t your thing, we were very happy to hear from you.
Here are a few of our very happy Demo Players after their wins.
Second, I would like to thank every single person who liked the game enough to buy the “Bootleg Edition”.
Thank you to the Con on the Cob staff, for the treatment we received! We started out at booth A09 in the Artitorium, but on Saturday, we were able to move into the Mother of All Marketplaces!

For our first Con, it was great. Thank you to everyone who helped, stopped by, supported us, and talked to us. We’re heading to Kickstarter in January 2018, and from there, the only thing we have on the schedule is Origins Game Fair in June 2018. If we’re able to sneak in more events, we’ll be sure to let you know!
We’ve talked about the fact that we are going to be at Con on the Cob. We’ve told you that we’re bringing our game, Oh Cluck!, and introducing the world to it. Now, let’s get specific.
Finding us.
We are in the Artitorium, Booth A09. For complete maps of the place, check them out here
What will be at the booth
Obviously, You can swing by the booth and learn how to play the game. We will be there, and we will be offering demos of how to play Oh Cluck! all four days of the con.
But, that’s not the best part.
I am very proud to announce that you will be able to purchase Oh Cluck! at Con on the Cob!
WHAT?! REALLY!?
Yes. I am pleased to announce that we will have “Oh Cluck! Bootleg Edition” for sale at the Convention. For $15, you can walk away with your very own Limited Print Run copy of the game.
Also, there will be a Con Exclusive Promo. If you want to know more about this one, you’re going to have to stop by and say hey.
Don’t have the cash to buy a copy now, but still want to keep tabs on us? That’s totally fine. We’ll have plenty of Postcards for you to snag, and take with you to help remind you about when we hit Kickstarter.
Meet us. Because who doesn’t want to meet the 4 guys responsible for this? The entire Foolish Media team will be there at various times throughout the event.

UPDATE #1
Jeff and Ray are on the grounds, and the booth is set up! We are just outside of the door between the Mother of All Marketplaces, and the Artitorium. Booth A09, right across from the restrooms. We should be hard to miss. What do you think?
We are “Officially” debuting this crazy game at Con on the Cob, November 9 through 12, at the Days Inn & Suites in Richfield Ohio! Check out our events for more specifics!
We are incredibly proud of this game, and can’t wait to meet with people and get more games in with the public!
We may even have a way for some lucky people to score copies of the game early… Stay tuned for more details!
