Megaplex 2015 - Quick Con Report!
10 years ago
Wow! I had another blast at Megaplex this year! Unlike some of the earlier MP's I've attended I had no problems with the con, my flights or the hotel this year. I'm sure the staff had the usual BS and problems but as an attendee I never saw them. Everything went smooth for me.
My only disappointments with the con was not the con itself, but with those who didn't show up this year. If you had the time and money to go and still blew this con off, you dummies missed a great Megpalex! And I woke up Sunday morning at 9AM feeling like hell after getting about 5 1/2 hours of sleep. So I took two Tylenol's, laid back down and slept until 11am.. Which meant I missed the CARE Foundation presentation, which I heard was awesome and also had a baby tiger you could pose and get photos with! (Damn!!!)
It's been a thrill to see this once small and put-down con grow into one of the best ran and themed cons in the fandom. Yappy, KP and the MP staff have done a hell of a job. (in comparison, my first Megaplex in 2006 had 257 attendees, nine years later it's 1,472!)
Next year's theme "The British Invasion" should be fun, since I love 60's British Rock and Pop music! And that NEW HOTEL! It makes the Marriott look like a Motel 6. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILfrAIavOLw
See ya at MFM!
