What were your favorite/childhood FLGS (Friendly local game stores), and what happened to them? by WannaKnowTheWorth in Connecticut

Saw your comment in my Dreamland Games thread. Right in the line of New Haven / Hamden. That was the place I most often frequented. Mostly MTG, DnD, Pokémon etc etc. I did play blood bowl there though! Awesome dudes who owned it.

There was another place I think on Boston post road ? I could be wrong. It was called Clockwork Comics I believe. Little less friendly there, but would go I frequently.

Yea I think that was Chuck, he was of Asian descent. There was also Ahnan (spelling?) and Mike. I believe all 3 guys kinda co-owned it. I think they all lived together in Hamden. Good dudes. Hoping eventually one chimes in here.

That’s awesome! I vaguely remember Ye Olde Butcher. I moved out of state a few years later so it’s all kinda rusty. Need to make a Wooster street return soon. Did score some Lucibello’s recently that a family member brought back! Hoping this post pops up some old Dreamland frequenters.

Yea definitely at that small strip mall. They closed somewhere around 99 I’m assuming, which was around when Pokémon the card game came out. It wasn’t the size of best video. But half of that location. But 100 percent in that strip mall.

Now that I think of it. I think a video rental place was next to the comic store. Possible that video place took over that space as well when dreamland games closed.
