>Convention gold is the room/suite parties. The whole purpose of walking around during the day is to find out where the good stuff is going down in the evenings.
This should be incredibly obvious, and yet somehow it isn't. When outsiders ask "Why do you want to travel so much for these events? What is there even to do?" This is always the answer. And nothing reminds you how severe weebtism gets like hearing the endless stream of people who are too scared or shy to bother with them. There's a billion other draws besides that, but the alternatives they go with are just so lame, it's incredibly bizarre. Most common ones include "Aimlessly wander the halls and briefly check things in vendor hall without buying almost any", rave (always a bust) or game room.
The afterparty anime con scene is full of people who are always willing to have a good time, laugh at retarded jokes and give away things to insane degrees. Nothing puts that in perspective like hanging with the absolute dullards of Comic Con, which truly do embody every negative stereotype about anime cons, and that's why I'm never bothering with any general media events (if I can help it) ever again.
