Watch on YouTube →Weekend board game gathering at Cooper's home with the community's sweetheart Cooper (the dog, not a player). We played Secret Hitler—where our only German friend drew the Hitler card and I was his Fascist ally. Through clever role-play and sheer lying through our teeth, we almost pulled it off. Almost. In the end, united friendship wins! Cakes, pizza, and Cooper's approval followed.
