Apparently, the imminent passage of yet another discriminatory "religious freedom" bill by the right wing may cost a Republican state a lot of money.
GenCon brings $56 million in economic activity to Indiana, every year. However, the convention's chief executive, Adrian Swartout, has sent a letter to Indiana's governor, Mike Pence, that says if the bill becomes law, GenCon will take its business elsewhere.

So, what new location would you guys prefer?
I'd advocate Denver (of course). We're centrally located, we have outstanding convention facilities (with a blue bear!), we already host a great Comic Con, there's lots to do in town, we make really good beer, it's a quick day-trip to the mountains and we're really, really tolerant -- especially when people want to spend millions of dollars in our city. :)
