Father's day and we're bereft of things to do, we decide upon the Comic Book & Sci Fi Convention.
$50.00 admission, $25.00 apiece. We did this last year...
...and it's much the same. Countless artists and vendors promoting their work, abundant costumes, superheroes of every shape and size: a 60 year old overweight Batman, a 14 year old underweight Superman in a skin-tight lycra that hangs from his skin like a tent, various others, a Jessica Rabbit, very convincingly done (less the curves, which I found too abundant anyways), only I think she's not really trying, the resemblance is natural.
Others, too, there's Zelda, and no less than 100 unwashed Katamari whose resemblance is probably pure chance, but how convincingly they've done it, there's zombies and Star Trek Aliens and Vampires and any number of Steampunk heros and people in costumes that probably have no comic book equivalent, merely dressing up, events like this bring out the kink....
Much to look at, but the most impressive thing by far (and most of the celebrities and vendors I'm sure were noticing as well) was the stall that sold mini-donuts and slushies. Averaging $10.00 every 30 seconds and a line that wouldn't diminish (the katamari's need feeding, after all, rolling away stuck to their slushies and donuts...), I'm guessing this is the business to be in. Forget everything else, run a mini-donut stand at Sci Fi conventions and in year you'll be rich....
