2
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: network of card shops, comic book stores, and other pop

3
00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: culture centered businesses focused around downtown.

Speaker 1: Darren Josie is the founder of First Seed Sowne Marketing,

7
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,079
Speaker 1: and he's trying to help the Gaming District connect with

8
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: other businesses through something called an Adventure Pass, which people

9
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: can buy to unlock discounts around the city. The idea

10
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,160
Speaker 1: is that with this pass, you can play a card

11
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 1: game at one place, pick out a new comic book

12
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 1: at another place, and grab a bite to eat, all

13
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 1: in the same day.

14
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 3: The city wanted to really highlight that you can spend

15
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 3: the whole afternoon or evening just in the Malden Gaming District.

16
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 1: The program runs through the end of the month and

17
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,800
Speaker 1: all sorts of local businesses are participating. Jeremy Russ WBZ,
