The Friendly Local Game Store (FLGS) holds a special place in gaming culture. Whether its a comic shop that hosts card tournaments in the weekends, or a game store with side rooms for role playing games, a FLGS is a hub for gamers of all ages. Most of these establishments host tournaments so check their websites or swing the shop to get a tournament schedule. Any good FLGS will teach inquiring players how to play any of the games they sell.
