What Does World Wide DnD Mean

I love DnD - not as much as family, faith, friends and all that, but I still love it. I don't really know why, I guess I can't really identify that one thing about it that keeps me coming back to playing. It could be the imagination - I like making up stories and even better starting a story and seeing other people add/change/destroy it. It could be the groups that I've played with. I see a lot of similarities in the people that are drawn to DnD. Lets face it - we're geeks.

Anyway, today is World Wide Dungeons & Dragons Day. It's a new celebration that Wizards of the Coast has started to publicize the game. I know it's there just to sell more games, but it is great to see all the folks that come out to celebrate. These are my people, and I am one with them. We play DnD, and today we are loud and proud.
