I really like going to conventions, but the only ones I typically go to during the year are Acen (Chicago) and Gencon (Indianapolis).

Does anyone know of any that are really worth traveling to? :)
 
i usually do chiller theatre or monstermania in jersey. if i can secure press credentials i go to the comicons in nyc or philly.
 
The only conventions I attend are political conventions. I went to Kami-Con (an anime convention) once--not in the sense that I actually attended, but it was being held in the student union building on my university's campus and I needed my Starbucks fix.
 
I used to go to most of the nerd cons in my area because I got in free (lolmedia) but when my job moved me to long-ass shifts Saturday and Sunday I stopped.
It's too much time to miss just to go hang out and stuff.
 
Long time Anime Expo patron. Would love to have a change of scenery but I'm way too busy for other cons. If you never been, I have to warn you that it's pretty crowded.
 
Anyone down with historical miniature wargames? I used to go to a couple of those when I was a kid. It's as nerdy as it sounds--you reenact famous battles with miniatures. The most notable one I went to was Spartacon in Lansing, MI

Never got into it, but I always wanted to try.
 
If we make it to a con, it's generally RadCon in Pasco, WA. It's a SciFi/Fantasy type con with a bit of everything in between. It's getting bigger each year, but it's fun.
 
I've only been to one con, which was Ikkicon back in 2013 when it was in Austin. Was a mixed experience. I doubt anyone from here will be there but I'm gonna be going to San Japan in San Antonio this year hopefully.
 
I'm not down with conventions. I'm surly and unfriendly most of the time and don't deal well with people I barely know.
 
I've never been to one. A friend models at Supernova and Comic Con so I could prob get free tickets if I asked, but i've never really wanted to go.

Aww yeah, otakon.

Also, I got drunk and argued with my friends about which would win: superman or goku.

Also, my friends had this, and I have no clue what it is:

It's some herbal bullshit from the Dominican Republic. There is no ingredients list and no alcohol levels listed or anything. I suspect it's "medicinal" rum.

Also, if any kiwis want to hang out, let me know. Anyway, brb, time to get blitzed.
 
Got a Sci-Fi convention over here that I go to (almost) every year called Hal-Con. Have plans to go this year too.

I've never been to the Midwest, so I'm not sure what there is besides Gencon.

Anime Boston and Otakon are great anime conventions, if you come east.

I usually go to Anime Boston yearly. It's where I can dress up as an idiot and have fun with my friends, even if I'm not big on anime. I plan to go to Otakon next year.

They're like taking out the food court, though, for the mall next to the convention center AB uses, so a lot of people are upset.

A-Kon here in Dallas, TX is pretty good. A bit crowded, though, and ever since they moved hotels due to stupid Homestuck fans, getting around hasn't been as easy. Still, it's pretty fun, and the panels and guests can be entertaining. Dallas also has A-Fest, which is coming up in the next couple months -- I plan on going to that one this year, too. It's smaller than A-Kon, but still sizable and fun. It's also still held at the hotel A-Kon used to be, which gives it extra brownie points in my eyes.
