Denver Chess Players?!

Is there anyone in the downtown area that want to play during the week?  I don't know about anyone else but I have only been playing chess for a year and a half and every chess player I have met in the area is socially awkward or mentally unstable.  There has to be other people around that play chess and are normal.  I don't play and study chess as much as I used to because I have no one cool to play with.  Anyone out there?

I frequent the downtown denver area, but I don't play anyone that wears clothes during games. Clothing hinders performance.

hahahaha

id also love to find somebody good to play otb with

I'm beginning tobquestion if such normal people exist in the world of chess

Aaaaaaand, the people who never stopped studying because they didn't care either way are the socially awkward and mentally unstable

Chess is a sport for individuals so of course your going to find all the weird(awesome) people. If you want to find some normal people your going to have a hard time.

Try to find the coffee shop chess clubs or library clubs.

I love the mental strategy and tactics of chess. But I ,however, want to make friends and have a group of people who have similar interest and push me to get better. Otb play is nice to mix up with a year or so of only online play. And it would be cool to sit down and have a drink with someone "wearing clothes" as zembrianator says.
