BGG Weekly Playlist: Win $1000, Party with Alice + Olivia, and Make Your Instagram Friends Jealous

So, you didn’t quite get the number of days off for the holidays that you thought you would, and now you’re here in town, wondering how in the world you are going to entertain yourself this week.

Everyone seems to have a fireplace and a golden retriever at the ready. We’ve seen it all before.

But don’t get internet-induced FOMO just yet, because we've done the near-impossible and figured out a way for you to stay in town and have more (or at least as much) fun as those who've checked out of town early.
