My neighbor said he'd rather play a board game than watch the big game

I was walking my dog yesterday and my neighbor Frank was setting up a big table in his garage. He told me he was hosting his 'real Super Bowl' with 8 people for a 4-hour game of Twilight Imperium. It made me think about how we all choose to spend our free time. What's the longest game session you've ever planned for?

My longest planned session was three hours for a simple card game, and even that felt like a real commitment.

My buddy Mark once scheduled an entire Saturday for a Lord of the Rings campaign. We started at 10 AM and finally ordered pizza around midnight, completely forgetting about dinner. It's wild how a good game can just make time disappear, isn't it?

My cousin's bachelor party was a 48-hour D&D marathon in a rented cabin.
