Isn't Comic Con The Band Camp/Private School of the convention set?
In that during the day they are about the industry and the night is about the sex. My friend tells me I am wrong or mislead but I could have sworn I heard all about the freaky sex that goes down there. Bear in mind I am not looking to hook up I was just discussing this with his gf and he tells me I am wrong. Didn't know where else to post this so sorry.
We had a conversation about con screws backstage when I was in the masquerade at ACen a few years ago.
It included the line "It's like, what did you get at the con? Oh, I got a manga! I got a plushie! I got syphilis!"
And at staff meetings, it's seriously been mentioned, if you're going to fool around, at least protect yourself. Or in the words of the Chief of Staff, "Don't come home with anything but what you purchased in the dealer's room, and girls aren't for sale!"
Chicago Comic Con/Wizard World Chicago sucks, from the reports I've gotten about it (I've never gone, but I have several friends who do and they've said the last few years have been really crap).
Of course, I've found that I much rather prefer working for and running conventions than just attending...
