    ITT: Little things that have happened to you at an other wise shitty con that mad it worth going to.

    (This happened around the time Friendship is Magic really started gaining public steam)
    >At Momocon 2011
    >Generally crappy time. Too hot, too many people, same generic dealer room crap, weebs everywhere, stalker showed up and terrorized my friends.
    >At one point, get separated from my friends, get completely lost. Head to the artist alley hoping to find them there.
    >Go to one of the booths selling assorted buttons and stickers. About to buy some when...
    >SUDDENLY BRONIES. 5 OF THEM.
    >Ask me what's up, I tell them I lost my friends.
    >Really nice guys, started talking to them about episodes, characters, music, ect. They told me I could hang with them till I found my friends.
    >Notice they're all wearing a metal cutie mark pin from their favorite mane character. All are represented except Rainbow Dash.
    >Guy with the Twilight Sparkle pin tells me to stick out my hand. Hands me the Rainbow Dash pin.
    >The Rarity guy buys me a heap of stickers and pins.
    >Hang out with them for several more hours. Make fun of weebs, throw paper balls at security, troll a bunch of Hetaliatards with history questions, general shitting around.
    >Finally find my friends after several hours.
    >We part ways, but they made the con that much more awesome.

    I didn't see them again for the rest of the con. I swear if it wasn't for the stuff RarityBro bought me, and the pin, that they were some sort of weird con angels or something.

    Ok, your turn.

    (pic possibly unrelatd. It was the best I had.)

    Why didn't ask them for some contact info? They seem like pretty cool guys, eh doesn't afraid of anything. (like a Facebook or something). Also, are you male or female? I'm just asking cause it woulda helped while reading your story.

    >NatsuCon 2011
    >Nicknamed PartyCon, I was expecting a lot
    >Borrowed a friend's Hatsune Miku cosplay for use on Saturday
    >Con wasn't too great. It wasn't BAD, but I was expecting more.
    >Low number of attendees
    >Half of the convention center wasn't available for use for unknown reasons
    >All panels shitty (e.g. "All asians are smart!")
    >Weebs everywhere per usual
    >Spent more time just talking to people than actually doing con-activities
    >Saturday night, somehow a drunk guy got into other group of friends' room and vomited over everything and hit his head and passed out on their floor
    >Security swarms that room, said group of friends can't go back or request a different room because they've been drinking too
    >No choice but to stay in my room with the people I'm rooming with; everyone sleeps uncomfortably that night
    >Sunday morning, everyone's packing
    >Friend who I borrowed the cosplay from finds me, tells me that I can just keep the whole cosplay since she's going backpacking across the country and won't be taking it
    >Free cosplay

    Sweet.

    Same con as this guy.

    >Con was rather meh.
    >Wandered aimlessy around mostly. Hung out at my sister's art table since there wasn't anything to do.
    >Find a Dead Master doll for $20. All over that shit. Excited since BRS stuff is usually over $30.
    >Cosplaying as Applejack, little girl asks if I'm from Texas.
    >Am socially awkward.
    >Say yes since I don't know what else to say.
    >She smiles and says she's also from there, then runs over to her sister and points at me and acts all cute and shit
    >God I love children
    >Also get a bunch of free art that my sister had left over. Sweet.

    Kids reacting to my costume always end up being one of the highlights of my con.

    Kinda silly, sorta ruined the shit but made me chuckle at the same time.

    Friend of mine got all fucking emo after I yelled at her for slamming my car door into someone elses car. She ran off and disappeared for 3 hours. I searched all over for her with my gf. I find her with some kids and tell her "you better be here when I get back." I'm tired so I'm taking my mgs:peacewalker gear back to my car, IE gun belt, eyepatch, bandana.

    Come back to get friend and the kids called security on me cause I "threatened" my friend with my gun, apparently I took it out of the holster and waved that shit around, even though it never happened.

    After telling some directors of the con the problem and why I was pissed, I get frisked by a cop. I give him my statement and my friend and gf corroborate and the cop sends me on my merry way, with me apologizing for wasting his time.

    I apologize to the director that stayed as well, he asks me if I was cosplaying as Big Boss.
    BTW, if you're one of the kids that called security on me, go fuck yourselves.

    I also helped a guy propose to his girlfriend by "kicking his ass with CQC".
