Food trucks are expensive, and end up taking up a lot of space and produce quite a lot of trash.

And the food isn't usually that great for "lunch", it's more like "oh shit, I only have about $7.50 left to spend for food today since i blew it all at the con" and all there is is food trucks where a soda and fries costs upwards of $5 plus tax.

Within only a third of a mile from the convention, there's a McDonalds, Jack in the Box, Taco Bell, Subway, Arby's, Dell Taco, and other mom and pop restaurants WITH AIR CONDITIONING.

There's even more sit down restaurants only a crosswalk away too.

I'm against the idea of foodtrucks because there's already so many other places to go near AC. This is NOT the case at other conventions that use food trucks, like AX for example. The food trucks are there because there is NO viable eateries for impoverished otaku in the first place, and thus the food trucks are necessary.

For a con like AC, where most of it's attendees are looking like first time con-goers anyways, the location is perfect with plenty of eateries and activities to have a good weekend without some food truck fiasco.

>pic related, best thing about AX
>what con food should look like, cheap food from street vendors that know their crowd, not glorified indie gourmet restaurants on wheels that charge ridiculous prices plus tax.
