Experiences

2007

Went specifically to see Jennie Breeden, the author of two webcomics, Devil's Panties and Geebas on Parade. We supplied her with oranges, orange juice, and later a meal from McDonald's (Filet'o'Fish and Sprite).

What I had not known was that a good portion of the cast from FarScape were also in attendance, including Gigi Edgley, David Franklin, Wayne Pygram, and Virginia Hey. This was a disappointment for me, because had I known that they were all going to be there I would have dragged out the suit for a re-appearance as the Sci-Fi Executive that cancelled FarScape.

Other celebrities in attendance that were interesting to see were Margot Kidder (who was a lot of fun to watch signing things, because she appeared to "get" the convention experience), Lou Ferrigno, Sean Astin, and Kevin Sorbo.

The folks from Red vs Blue were also there, and I bought the Season 3 DVD because it has the Thanksgiving Public Service Announcement on it... I even got the DVD cover signed by two of the actors.
