What is there to do if you can't legally drink?
>>
>>27549750
idk where you got the idea that people drink alcohol at brony conventions lmao. bronycon in particular is fully kid-friendly (except that this year they added a late night 21 and up thing, we'll see how that goes)
>>
>>27549768
All the fags from this board post after-con pics from their motel rooms.

I see it every year.
They take shots, and take turns mounting each other.
>>
>>27549790
that's not even officially related to the con in any way shape or form. but i'll bite, desustorage link?
>>
>>27549038
500% fucking hype. I literally have not gone a single day without thinking about this damn convention at least 3 separate times.

>>27549290
They sell registration badges up to the days of the con but still sell at-door badges. Sponsor badges are all sold out, only thing left are 3 days, 3 day plus, and single days.
>>
I'd love to go, but signing up this late means a shitty hotel room not in the hotel itself, and money issues as well.

I've been to the last three, it's just not in the cards really. Plus all of my old bronycon friends just fell apart over the past year.
>>
>>27550166
always time to make new bronycon friends, anon.

>>
>>27550419
Roomshare, go hang out by the bar, meet some people, hang out and make friends
>>
>>27550427
I aint drinking age tho. Youd think theyd be that lax about that? And to be honest with ya familia, I don't know where the fuck to find a roommate.
>>
Yep, mainly to cosplay and look at merch. Panels are either fairly boring or cringeworthy so a good recommendation for one to sit through on Saturday would be nice.
>>
>>27549038
This is my first and likely only year going..
Mainly just going to meet up with friends.
I'm rooming with one of them and she's gonna be on a panel n' shit.
Should be fun.
>>
It'll be my first time.

Question: Most people have Sunday checkouts at noon, but the con still goes the whole day. Do you carry your bags around the whole day? What do you do?

I'm trying to figure out a Spike cosplay right now. Thinking purple pants, purple shirt, green vest and tie, green wig, and I was going to fashion some spines out of either plastic or masonite.

Baring that I'll modify my Vault 101 jumpsuit into a Stable 2 jumpsuit, as I did enjoy Fallout: Equestria.
>>
>>27551005
Every year I've driven there with some friends and after we check out on sunday we just put them in the car and continue with the convention. I'm not sure what else you can do if you're taking another mode of transportation.

I just got everything paid off today to attend the convention for the 4th time, I'm hyped.
>>
>>27551074
Yeah. Greyhound. I could easily drive there, but I'd rather not put hundreds of miles on my car when I'm not really telling my parents that I'm going (i'm up at school for the summer working). Even though I've driven the car for 4 years, it is in all truth my parents car, so I can't do non-essential shit with it, especially if it's hundreds of miles away.

"Hey, my car broke down."
>"Ok, just get it taken care of for now in town, and walk to work."
"Yeah...I'm about 50 miles away from Baltimore."
>"...why?"
>>
>>27551279
Pack light then. And really I would advise you get our before the mass exodus on Sunday at 3. There's nothing really going on past 12, you should of done your shopping before then, but look for last minute sales from the vendors looking to off load their stuff at cheap rates to not bring it back home, and leave at 12. Maybe 1. Avoid the traffic of all the people leaving. Honestly the closing ceremonies aren't worth going to.

>>
>>27551279
If you're going to BronyCon via Greyhound then there's a chance we'll bump into eachother...
>>
>>27550435
Check the Bronycon Community forums. There are a few room share threads on there. Beware the autists for they are numerous; if you look hard enough I'm sure you'll find a room hosted by some chill people.

>>27551005
What do on with Sunday checkout? Carry bags around whole day?
The Hilton can hold bags temporarily while you either dick around the con center or wait for your transportation out of the hotel. I've always had the bellhops hold our luggage on Monday after checkout while we're waiting to head to the airport to fly out.

You won't. Well, most likely not.

This is a fan convention, Hasbro is not their. They will not allow this information to be revealed their most likely. Thet'll show something off maybe at SDCC, and definitely at Hascon whenever that is.

I'll keep an eye out. Normally I go to cons solo just because a) no friend is able to go and b) if they do, we seperate within the first half hour. I have a much better time hanging out with people I meet at cons instead.
>>
>>27553118
Ditto. Flying it alone can be fun too, as you can do whatever you want whenever you think about it. Wish my one friend could go, but he's in California for the summer.
>>
>>27549750
Their is a lot more to do at BronyCon besides getting plastered. The Palooza for one is a giant party with live music from Rock to Dubstep and Electronic music. Tons of fun without alcohol.
>>
>>27550166
Those friends of yours weren't real fanatics.
>>
>>27550419
The first time I met friends at BronyCon was the second convention after the New Jersey one. I meet them though a thread on 4 Chan we decided to meet up at a certain time at the Hilton and we have been seeing each other every convention and hanging out.

>>27551711
What are you working as?

>>27558804
There was over 10,000 people over the course of 3 days at the last con, so at least the convention has gained some traction since 2012. That's a good question to ask at the "Is the fandom changing" panel if they still have it.

>>27550477
Bumping my own question even though I may have just partially answered it. Also, any cheap merchants that do cheaply cheap commission sketches?
>>
I wanted to go to bronycon the first year but couldn't

I could go this year but honestly i think anybody left in the fandom this point that'd go is probably a giant fucking autist

So called roomparties are a thing at conventions. Not only brony conventions, but conventions in general. But there are definitely big room parties at brony conventions. Babscon has the Klingons roomparty, the /mlp/ roomparty, the FurCon roomparty and a bunch of others every year.

All of them have lots of themed alcoholic drinks.
>>
>>27549768
You've never actually been at a convention, haven't you? Some brony cons even run panels where the panelists get drunk on stage. Sometimes even together with show staff.

As long as you know the right people, preferably from /mlp/ or Berrytube and you aren't a massive faggot, then you can get absolutely hammered at a lot of parties. I'm 19 and it was fairly easy getting into a lot of places from knowing at least some people, compared to all the other people my age or younger trying to weasel their way in.

Props if you also look like an adult. I remember being absolutely shitfaced at a party and the cops did not even bother checking me as I went back to my hotel room

How much of a newfag are you to have not heard stories from a convention let alone never been to one yourself for the experience? People drink ALL the time! Just because BronyCon is "kid friendly" does not mean Adults can't have fun. It is true they added a 21+ content, but I do have a half of mind that it'll be anticlimactic. I'll just have to attend in 3 weeks and see if I'm proven wrong.

i had the choice of Comic Con International and Bronycon, and i chose the former solely on the fact that i'd rather go to san diego rather than baltimore.

it would be fucking rad if we had a meetup at both cons, though. because the best part about these horse cons is meeting up with fellow horsefuckers and shitting up the world with our memes and intoxication.
>>
>>27569198
Comic con is so fucking huge and oversaturated, it'd be a pain in the dick to get around.

The benefit of Bronycon is that it's a lot more chill, everyone's there for the same thing, and it's a lot more of a party than a theme park.
>>
>>27569268
yeah, you're not wrong. but it's some of the best memories i have- besides i already went to EFNW.

i did get a meetup going once.
i'm staying in san diego for all of july, because it's much cheaper to actually rent out a small 500$ apartment for a month than pay the 300$ night fees for some of the hotels out there.

so that'll be fun.
>>
>>27549768
People drink all the time at BronyCon. They even sell Flasks in the Vendor hall. You obviously do not know what your talking about. You are either oblivious to the obvious plastered fans stumbling around the convention day and night, or you never went to BronyCon and are full of shit.

Everyone was drinking out of a horse cock when I went, but from what I saw, no one was forced into actually drinking out of it. It's just encouraged.

I'll be back again this year over at #520. I'll likely be wearing the 4CC scarf most of the time, since it's the only pony merch I own/way to identify folks from here

You fuckers always get a discount, btw. Just mention you're from 4chan or say IWTCIRD

Some folks buy embroidery files and do them on their embroidery machines . Personally, I make the files myself (albeit a really ghetto cheap way) and then embroider them on my machine

I'm thinking about driving out this year but have never been to Baltimore before. Does anybody have any lodging recommendations?
>>
>>27576585
Just look on the bronycon site. There's a shitload of hotels right around the con and they all give discounts if you're booking for it.
>>
>>27576585
I live about 1.5 away in northern Virginia away and though I don't live in the city I highly recommend you find a hotel closer to DC/NoVa considering Baltimore isn't known too well by their wonderful night life. Inner Harbor is usually fine day or night and some of Patterson Park is nice to visit during the day, but overall the Bmore is not really the best place for a convention involving ponies.
>>
>>27576638
That's what I've been going off of so far, I was just curious if there were any specific suggestions or places to avoid.
>>27576642
Damn, are there any decent places in the harbor area to hang out after the con and grab a drink?
>>
>>27576813
I didn't do much drinking last year so I wouldn't know, though some people hold meetups after the day ends where they'll go out to local bars and drink. Ask the staff over their email because they probably know the most about certain places where they hold those said meetups, or better yet ask some anons in the BC threads once July rolls around.

>>27576551
Shit, didn't Flutterpreist go last year as anon? I think I have a photo of him somewhere and it looked tight af.
>>
>>27576813
Hilton is going to be the best, since it's connected to the convention center (makes stumbling back much easier). It's sold out already though. However, lots of folks on the Bronycon forum are looking for roomshares for there. So if you don't mind rooming with some randos, its solid.

The hotels that are on the BC website are all great options, plus there is a group rate if you go with friends. I wouldn't recommend driving and leaving your car there since I heard a lot of people got robbed in the past. Like I said before, I'm taking a bus from NYC. See if there are any options for Greyhound from where you are.

>>27576585
>Lodging recommendations
Basically echoing >>27577025.
Hotel room shares. There are some room shares up for the Hilton, the hotel directly connected to the con center, as well as the surrounding hotels.

I've met some sweet ass guys through room share experiences before. Check out the Bronycon Community forums (https://community.bronycon.org/c/room-share) for room share listings. Gotta try just a little bit to avoid the spaghautists who're offering rooms, though.

>>27578131
I'd love to take a road trip but it'll be like 17 hours nonstop and I ain't about that life. There's also more of the pre-con-thrill when flying.

Is that... Tara Strong and Lauren Faust?
>>
>>27577609
>>27578203
Thanks for the advice. It looks like there are still a few single bed rooms left at the Hilton, I might just go ahead and book one to avoid the hassle
>>
>>27578335
>>
>>27578390
I personally went with the Marriot, since it was cheaper. There might be more rooms in that one if the Hilton doesn't work out

No.

I cannot for the life of me imagine how people bring themselves to go to these events. I would feel nothing but embarrassment, not because I have an image to uphold (i don't), but just because I wouldn't feel like I belonged there, I'd be too out of place.

I tried going to tekko for the first time this year and it was just awkward as shit and all I did was sit in the video rooms and watch shows i had never seen (Which actually wasn't bad.)


How do you people force yourselves to these events and manage to not feel completely, well, embarrassed?

>>27580554
It's like the same as any con, desu. Just more ponies. Helps if you have friends to get drunk with and wander around.

Is their going to be a Bar Trot again this year?

>>27589688
Not really. Just anons that happened to be Horse News desu. Generally at previous parties the people that were willing to do all the organization for the party room happened to also be HN. Most of the people helping run the parties and the people attending were just random anons.

At this point the HN affiliates are tired of running shit or are too busy, so they've let other groups take over for the rest of the year and next year.

>>27589688
Capper and SSF6 were the ones who first started organizing the /mlp/arties back in 2013

Then it grew and those same groups of people also happened to be involved in HN, and continued to organize the /mlp/arties together

Capper is now in Korea and is pretty much hands-off as far as interaction with the fandom goes, and the rest have pretty much passed on the planning torch after 3 years of doing it

>>27591787
Just because they have vaginas doesn't mean they aren't autistic as well anon.
>>
>>27591787
what's going on saturday? Titty dancer convention?
>>
>>27591874
I don't know about that, last year there were some qts I talked to about general things that seemed to have their autism contained well.

>>27591876
Goddamn I wish. One year they should have an adult event themed around Canterlot Gardens or something where strippers "cosplay" as pones from the show that lasts all night Saturday. Downside would be they just have to handle manchildren until morning.


On a slightly similar note what music do they play at BronyPalooza? Is it strictly pony music or can a mix of other dance-type music be added in? I'd like to hear some niggawigga jams (it is Baltimore after all) if me and my compadres end up going.
>>
I want to go really badly, but I have no friends I could ever convince to come with, and I'm certain I'd be too fucking awkward to socialize with people once I'm there. Even if I made one friend ahead of time, I'd just end up following them around the whole time like an abandoned puppy.

Christ, I wish I were autistic so I could have the required lack of social awareness to just enjoy myself.
>>
>>27592256
Get involved in one of the various horsefucker con Skype and just circlejerk with us. That's how the vast majority of us got to know each other.

Booze also helps.
>>
>>27589438
Would you be cool with an anon who wouldn't be drinking at all?

>>27592772

>>27592829
Great. I normally would say we should get hammered but I REALLY don't want to get caught in Baltimore drunk.
>>
>>27580554
It's easy to feel embarrassed because you're associating with pones, but because there are so god damn many people, this idea will get left behind when you realize and subconsciously that no one will give a shit/scrutinize/notice if you're there and you can begin to really enjoy the con. Shopping, panels, people, interacting with cosplayers and shit--all this starts coming up when you realize no one will ever care that you're spending a weekend at the best and biggest pony con in the world.

>>27586917
>>27586967
It's Bronycon's 5th year celebration. (despite it technically being their 8th, it's the 5th celebration ) They're gonna go all out. I will be utterly horrified if they don't do special animations for this year.

>>27590222
Galacon, Brony Fair, BUCK (RIP), Middle Equestrian Convention, Ponycongress, UK Ponycon.

>>27592145
Bronypalooza is a 14 hour event spread over 2 days. Both nights will kick off with rock/alternative/metal acts and move into dance (mostly house and dubstep, nothing really harder/faster than this) stuff more appropriate for a rave. It is definitely not pony only, though the rock/alternative/metal acts will extremely likely be playing a whole lot more pony shit than the dance acts.
>>
>>27592256
see >>27551869
>>
>>27580554
We don't necessarily "force" ourselves, but most of us are used to going to events without embarrassment because we've been in the fandom for the last several years. The spaghetti and autism we spew isn't new to us IRL or on the internet. We just like to dick around and have fun despite what the media or others have to say. Be with the right group of people and it won't feel that way.
>>
gonna be security this year
>>
>>27592845
I personally won't be at BrownieCon this year, because I'm saving up for a car and for the NMND/PPC/BABS parties (my group's taking the "lods of emone" approach for the parties, so we gotta save up our shekels). Join this Skype group, you'll be able to find fellow horsefuckers to chill with/make sure you don't get mugged by homeless people when you inevitably get booze shoved down your throat.
