[QUOTE="Steel_Wind, post: 2513340, member: 20741"] (And no - I got nothing to do with this gig) In the wake of the past weekend's Gencon, it seems that Hobbystar is promoting a large gathering this coming weekend in Toronto at the Metro Convention Centre. Billed as "Canada's Largest Gaming Event" the Gaming Expo is newly attached to an already very large SF/Comic/Anime/Horror fan show with about 27,000 people expected. Details [URL=http://www.hobbystar.com/ComicConTorontoV2/CC_Gaming_Home.asp]here[/URL] A number of well known artists and authors are at the Con as well as a honkin large number of specialty retailers. The biggest name would be Gargy Gygax who is appearing to run some games, do some seminars and otherwise will be at Troll Lords' booth according to his latest post in the epic "Ask Gygax" thread. Anyone else planning on attending this? The show is local to me and there seems not to have been a whole lot of promotion of this in my FLGS so I ended up finding out about it only from a friend who is into Anime. I guess if you are trying to start up a large gaming expo and trying to give it some street cred, there is no better way to do so than by having Gygax attend. [/QUOTE]
