Adventures at Florida Supercon 2010

Written by Myles on Tuesday, 03 August 2010.

I've always stayed away from Cons, expecting to be the oldest one there surrounded by teenie boppers in inappropriately revealing costumes. Also, not much typically interests me enough to draw me in. However, at this particular convention (Florida Supercon) held in Miami, Florida on June 18 - 20, 2010, two members of Ghost Hunters International were attending.

Botcon 2010

Orlando and the Dolphin Party TF Style

Finally, years after the first Botcons, promoters decided to come to Orlando. This is the first big toy robot event in Florida versus challenging locations (for me at least) like Detroit, Ohio, Indiana, Tokyo and Kentucky.  It is about time and judging by what I saw, a great success! 

Close to EPCOT is an epic scale hotel and convention center building known as the Dolphin. Oh, it is next to the equally large hotel known as the Swan. Disney does things right and big with polish.  So after entering the $11 jammed packed parking I was greeted by gobs of adult kids, kid kids, international kids, pale white never-seen-light-kids, and costumed out kids.  -Surreal!
