It would be, thanks man

Anything can happen in a year though. We'll just have to wait and see...

I've been every year since 2002, but I'm gonna have to sit this year out. I came into unexpected expenses during the first part of the year, mainly from a $2,200 income tax tab. Sucks to be me.

Living in Atlanta, I'd go to DragonCon but I haven't ever been there strictly on principle. The guy who organized it was arrested several years ago on a pedophile charge. (Besides...college football starts up that weekend.)

Cali's a bit too far for me, though. That and the expense. They do have a hostel near Gaslight Quarter which is close to Petco Park, the home of the Padres and the Convention Center, if you like cheap accomadations and do-it-yourself living expenses.

LaBloo · 05-30-2007, 05:11 PM

Nah. I'm too busy to go there.

I'm very close, but just don't plan on being there the entire 4 days. Right now I'm waiting to hear about the programming. Whichever day gets the Futurama panel (if it's this year) gets priority. Last year I scored big time because Bruce Timm and Robert Smigel (Triumph the Insult Comic Dog/SNL TV Funhouse) were on the same day. I only wish I was able to meet the cast/creators.

Been going since the mid-nineties and plan to be in attendance this year, as well. Though wrangling a hotel room each year is getting nigh impossible to do. Only managed to snag a hotel 'bout a mile from the convention center because a friend of ours had to cancel. One man's misfortune is another's windfall.

The more NFers that attend, the better. Time is running out, though. It's less than two months from now.

Invader Bloo · 06-01-2007, 08:30 AM

How I wish I could go. Not only for Foster's but for SW, Indiana Jones & Spider-Man.

Government Man · 06-10-2007, 08:46 PM

Here's a link to a page for tips if you plan to attend. Granted, this was written from the point of view of a comic strip artist desperate for a big break, but it does have good stuff about various hotels, places to eat, and which booths and panels are must-sees.

Oh, and don't think it's too late to sign-up. Sparky and I didn't make our reservations until around this time last year, and we were still able to get hotel reservations in scenic El Cajon.
