Hisstankers,
How many of you are attending the second biggest comic/toy/sci fi/etc convention on the West Coast. Wondercon is coming up and wonder how many of you I'll see there. Its a fun conventions for all of us in the bay area. You get to see movie trailers, panels, meet the artists, celebrities of age old, etc. I've had a blast every year I've went. Has anyone else here attended it? If so, what memories do you have? |

I went for years when it was it was held in Downtown Oakland. Once it was moved to the city I never went back.

Who is Rickey? Rickey Henderson former A's player dude?
My Mom used to work for them, then she worked for the Giants. The A's are a good team, but I like the Giants colors better. Last edited by Zoltron; 02-07-2009 at 01:31 AM.. |

and expect huge crowd. if you're gonna spend, bring tons of cash. atms and banks are around market street, a block from the convention center. Quote:
and no, there's not gonna be an overflow of "sluts." only a few of those "models" signing autographs at the artist alley area. not noticeable btw. surrounded by grandaddy artists and mostly forgotten tv stars, etc.
