I’ve heard about FreakNik, but I know very little about it. Thanks.
I went to DragonCon back in the 90s and it was nuts, but in a fun way. I’m guessing it’s totally corporate now, although I know attendance has grown massively.
Back then, I got to see Gwar and The Misfits live for free (it wasn’t even in a part of the area where they were checking wrist bands) and celebrities didn’t ask for money for an autograph.
