Now you need to make plans to come to ACEN with us
Well, now that I believe I may be able to get a small group... it seems a possibility for 2016... maybe (seeing as 2015 doesn't look like it right now, way too much going on)
Note: Going was the Wife's Idea.
Ohio's not far from you Caff, you could come to Ohio Con, Ohio Comic Con, or even a few of the other smaller (usually game-based) conventions.
It's really strange being in one of the most populated cities (within the top 15) in the country yet so little events like this actually happen here...
And when they do, it's usually a relatively small showing.
But a decent celeb list overall.

I'm all for Dear Leader visiting our humble state, maybe we can do an Ohio BRBU meetup thing if he ever does, there's like what 4-5-6 of us here?

Colossal or Ohaiyo are two that I know of in your state that would be something I would consider attending
[/quote]
Collosalcon is in Sandusky, I'd be willing to do that, if you'd be willing to only do the 1 or two days and one of the days we go to Cedar point... because... cedar point is fucking awesome.
And I didn't even know Ohayocon existed until you posted this... that is held at the same place I went.
It's down the street from the OSU Campus, the North Market (our local regularly open Market-style eatery and grocer building), the Arena District (a small local brewery and Nationwide arena, where the blue jackets play), as well as down the street from the Short North (home to
http://www.kingmakerscolumbus.com/ and a bunch of small bars and restaurants).
The Convention Center is quite literally in the Center of all these things... It is attached to a Hyatt hotel.
I may be willing to go to Ohayocon but the friend is more into Anime than the wife. I have only watched a few myself (but enjoy them most of the time I've watched them).

Well, lets see here, You, Me, Swain, Luca, my wife isn't really active here but that can make 5, the friend of my wife and I, again he's not very active here (and is primarily a console gamer, Weeping Darlek on XBL if you want to ad him).
Though Sogo, I'd be up for GenCon Indy as well, if it doesn't conflict with Caff's other schedules. I have a cousin who's been trying to get me to go to it for years. (Since before caff started pushing Acen on us!)
By the way, is it about time a thread started with con listings (per state, that is stickied)?
Con Listing Thread Example:
Ohio:
Ohayocon - Columbus | January 30th - February 1st, 2015
Collosalcon - Sandusky | June 4th - June 7th, 2015
Ohio Comic Con - Columbus | 2015 TBD
Looking up other Ohio Cons, Zipcon (Akron), the Akron Zips is the name of the school's team, so that's a college-con.
Armegeddon, it's being held in the same hotel I actually had my wedding and reception in... won't be big. Animarathon in Bowling Green, Bowling Green is a town that is literally nothing but the college and that's about it. So... that's a college-con.
Then there's Matsuricon I don't know much about it, but that's being held at the Hyatt downtown (same place as convention center)... so that could be bigger. That one's in August.
