The outdoor patio of El Cid -- nestled in a Silverlake hillside -- was a great backdrop for our first ever Los Angeles game night. Media professionals from all industries rolled up their sleeves for intense rounds of Scrabble, Scattergories, Trivial Pursuit, Boggle, and Connect Four. We even had prizes for the winners!
