Best/Worst con experience

[Phenom_85]

Best:
- Meeting Kari Wahlgren (Haruko from FLCL) at AnimeNEXT 2006
- Meeting Vic Mignonga at same con after being almost certain I would not get his autograph
- Getting not one, but two pics taken with Johnny Yong Bosch at Tandokucon 2007
- Getting to attend Ohayocon 2009 after thinking I would be unable to go at all
- Beating some guy in a game of Pokemon at Tandokucon 2007 while his girlfriend was cheering ME on (she was kinda cute, to be honest)

Worst:
- Coming home sick from Ohayocon 2009 and AnimeNEXT 2007
- Just about every other aspect of Tandokucon 2007 (to anyone who lives in the Philadelphia area, that's why Philly never has any anime cons)
- Coming in 2nd in the Pokemon TCG tournament at AnimeNEXT 2007 to my best friend who pretty much slow played the entire game (still wish he was around, though)

and I have to post this pic:

Worst: When I went to a Sailor Moon something-or-other Show and they were all waaay overweight in short skirts. Panty shots I never wanted to see. Oh, and yaoi fangirls.

Best: Went to Vic Mignogna"s first and last ever 'Vic Mignogna Shares Too Much' panel.

I'm jealous. The 18+ share-too-much-panels are great. Nabeshin crashed one I went to, it was hilarious. My best moments have been meeting favorite VAs, seeing cosplays, winning stuff at anime jeopardy, and going to panels where you actually learn something.

Worst moments? There was one time I cosplayed all day and NO ONE actually recognized my character or said anything. I got tired of it and changed, and FIVE minutes later this retard fat guy comes up behind me and hugs me. I got all pissed, but maybe if it happened five minutes before I would have cut him a tiny bit of slack. Then again, if I asked if he hugged me because he recognized my character and he said no, I would've ******** smacked him. xp

Nabeshin?..As in the person that was part of the Excel Saga, or someone cosplayed as him?

The real Nabeshin, aka Shinichi Watanabe, the director of Excel Saga and the Wallflower who likes to insert himself into anime.

I know his name lol..He is freaking awesome, and now I am jealous DX I LOVE THAT GUY Just like I love that cracked up series.

He talked about how he held up his hand in a shocker sign when leaving the closing ceremonies of a convention, because that's one of the things he learned in America. Also, he stood in line for his own panel until someone said something. He really is awesome. whee
