The Overland Park International Trade Center was overrun with thousands of comic books, hundreds of people, and a lot of chicks in revealing outfits. Unfortunately, a lot of the latter should not have been allowed to even look at the stuff they were wearing, let alone OWN it. But for Ryan and I, it was a nice primer for the San Diego Comic Con this July.
While not all of the people scenery was that great to take in, the prints, drawings, and other items on display from the artists on hand, were awesome. To be honest if I lived closer, I would totally go back tomorrow.
I will admit I did lead my party astray on the trip to the con. Myself, Ryan and his lovely girlfriend initially went to the Overland Park Convention Center, solely off the fact that that is where I THOUGHT the website said it was. Alas, I was wrong.
Having to listen to Ryan point out it was my fault wasn’t the most embarrassing part of the gaffe either. It was me possibly, maybe, sorta breaking/fracturing/injuring my middle finger on my right hand, that wins that award. See, I was TRYING to be nice and get the door as we walked in but I had two problems. The first was the door not being quite as heavy as I thought it was. The second problem being the large brick wall that restricted how far the door could actually open. Take 1 + 2, and throw in my hand firmly gripping the door handle. Middle. Finger. Samich… FML! YEAH!
While there I got to meet the folks at Jackalope Radio, and hang out with Brad Westmar. Mr Westmar and I took in the fabulous entertainment that is The Damsels of Dorkington! If you find these people anywhere NEAR where you are… GO SEE THEM!
Now it is time to hang out with my gorgeous wife, and maybe play some MLB ’11: The Show.
