I had the opportunity to meet Brent Spiner at Dragon*con a few years ago. I also follow him on Twitter. Spiner is a funny dude. I’ve said in the past that he’s a big weirdo, but in the most endearing and funny way possible. So when I found out he was going to be at MegaCon in Orlando this weekend, I told a friend of mine that was going that he had to make a point to see Spiner. (I no longer live in O-Town and couldn’t go myself.)
Well, my friend just returned home, and relayed the following conversation he and Spiner had (paraphrased of course):
Friend: I have a friend who does a convention blog and said you’re a highlight and I ... |

As you can probably tell, The Convention Fans Blog now has a new home! For the past year or so, Convention Fans was hosted by Today.com. The archives for the blog’s 2008-2009 year will continue to be hosted there, as per my original exclusivity contract with them.
That being said, The Convention Fans Blog has moved here to it’s own URL. Sort of. Here at this URL you’ll see a post for each new blog entry just like before (with the same kind of content as before). However, you may notice with some articles that the “read more” link takes you to a full version over at Alltern8.com.
Why you ask? Because Alltern8.com has graci... |

The Convention Fans Blog/Alltern8.com will officially be attending PAX East! PAX is short for Penny Arcade Expo, and it’s shaping up to be one of the biggest conventions on the east coast. They are expecting a sell out crowd!
PAX East is March 26-28th in Boston, Massachusetts at the Hynes Convention Center.
We’re super excited PAX has finally come to the east coast. Seriously. We jumped for a joy a little.
Now if only Wil Wheaton was going to be there, I think I’d cry a little! (He’s the only regular Star Trek: The Next Generation cast member that I have not met.)
Hope to see you there!
