I-CON 2001 Pics

     There were so many colorful people just in this building. People of all ages were present, from parents and their children, to older people enjoying the sci-fi and anime shows and panels. Unfortunately the time for the Ayashi no Ceres showing was shifted and I ended enduring the Hurlock Saga instead. But I am glad that this happened because it was going well on 5:30 by this point, so I decided to scoot on over to the dealer room (which could have been a little bigger), that was closing around 7. There I got some great pictures of anime fans in cosplay. And found some really great deals on anime and manga.

     After all that shopping I was totally broke and it was getting dark. And even though events at the con were not ending until nearly 1 am, I was by myself and did not want to walk around campus alone, so I left very pleased, but sad that I had not taken full of advantage of the three day event. I definitely would encourage fans in the Northeast to take full advantage of this con, and try to stay for the full three-day event. It is worth the time and money to be around your fellow fans and receive the ultimate fan experience.

     Next year, the I-Con comes of age, from April 19 through April 21, 2002, when the convention turns 21. For more information go to the official I-Con website www.ICONSF.org.
