Hey PC! I need your help in making a decision that will impact the fate of my entire future (or at least one Saturday in September and about $71 of my savings).
Now, there is a "Sci-fi/Anime" convention coming up in the nearest big city to me on the third week of September. I went to this same event last year, and sadly found that the "sci-fi" elements vastly outweighed the "anime" elements (nothing against sci-fi but y'all probably know which of the two I'm going there for). However, I am going through "convention withdrawl" and it is a good opportunity to get out of the house for a day (heaven knows I need to get out and do something apart from my family BADLY). Also, last year when I went was the first year for this convention, so I am hoping that this year they end up streamlining things a bit.
So, my question is simple. Is spending $71 (for transportation, meals, and admission combined) worth it to attend this thing on a Saturday? Or do you think that the history of it being more sci-fi oriented last year makes it a bad deal for me?
P.S. Vic Mignogna is scheduled to be there if that would sway anyone's decision in either direction. Note that he is the ONLY anime-related special guest scheduled, however.
