my sister's friend's husband went to a magic tournament yesterday so I had to explain to my family what magic the gathering is and why "the smell" is a criticism of a card game

How's your Easter going?

I went to an anime convention the other day and it had The Smell also
Whats the smell
- BO from people who don't wash themselves. Common enough in certain circles (MtG, Warhammer, etc) that some stores/tournaments will put up signs like these:
- Usually a combination of sour milk, body odour, and rot.
  Individual players seem to be fine, but as soon as they gather in numbers it smells like someone has died and then been used as a urinal.
  
  I thought it was slang term for something different
🎵Ooooh, that smell🎵
🎵Ooooh, that smell🎵
- The smell of death's around youuuuu
Fr, the LGS always has that smell.
I collect ygo cards digitally and real copies too but I play it solely digitally because I don't want to interact with typical gamers and their bullshit.
Out of the loop here what is “the smell” 🤔
My local game stores growing up didn't have a lot of those types. I would eventually encounter some in the real world and it made me feel suddenly guilty that I played card games and only worked 40+ hours a week.
Lol
