Just saw this today on reddit. I know a lot of regulars here attend each year. Looks like a much larger venue.
Tickets purchased, hotel room reserved!
Man, this makes me really happy. Dan and Gary are great guys with the best of intentions. It's really nice to see their show grow and thrive. Good for them!
As long as it doesn't get too big I'm cool with it.
I used to go to tons of cons as they were exploding in size and number in the 90s/00s. I quit mostly because they all got to be so huge that you have to fight crowds, not just at the con, but MILES from the con because that's how many people come to some of these things now. Yeah they have big guests, but now you have to win a lottery for the right to stand in line for three hours to see them and pay maybe $80 for their signature.
More of everything is good, but be careful because for every new guy that brings a cool rare pin there are going to be 7 pickpockets, 3 pedophiles, 2 crooked vendors, and 47 cosplay dirtbags sleeping in the lobby restroom because they got kicked out of the room they were all sharing.
I'll be there, btw, with a three year old. I've only been there once but it was fantastic.
April 13-15...
It's up in the air whether or not I'll be able to go this year, first time I'd miss in like 8 years...
trying to finagle something that would let me go, but life is changing.

Congrats on getting married? LOL, nothing takes away gaming time like a lady not into it.
