Minisode: Florida Supercon 2024
Description
What happens when you combine the excitement of Florida Supercon with the unpredictability of solo adventures? Listen to our latest episode as Anthony recounts his two-day escapade at Florida Supercon 2024, armed with press passes and an insatiable curiosity. From the impressive growth of the convention under ReedPop's ownership to the thrill of seeing the entire Critical Role cast (despite a hiccup with some car issues), there's plenty to unpack. Plus, David Tennant's guest appearance added an extra layer of star-studded excitement!
Imagine missing your most anticipated panel due to a tire mishap and heavy traffic—that's precisely what happened to Anthony! Despite the heartbreak of missing the Critical Role panel, the vibrant atmosphere of Supercon quickly uplifted his spirits. From meeting talented artists and testing high-end Secret Labs computer chairs to enjoying Crunchyroll-sponsored anime viewings and beginner-friendly D&D sessions, the convention offered a rich tapestry of experiences. And good news for those who missed the panel—it's available on YouTube!
Conventions aren't just about fun; there is also behind-the-scenes challenges vendors face. With insights from a friend comparing the costs of Supercon and Otakufest, we delve into the financial hurdles new vendors encounter. On a more personal note, I'll share the diverse and geeky merchandise I couldn't resist, from bento boxes to anime journals. Reflecting on the relaxed atmosphere of Sunday versus the bustling Saturday, I can confidently say that Supercon is a must-attend if the guest lineup catches your eye.
