Equestria L.A. 2015 (Late Update)

So this event was from last year. It's been in my drafts for a while... so here it is! 

The vibe was definitely different compared to the vibe of the My Little Pony Fair 2015 in Chicago. There were a lot of guys at this one and I don't think there were any collectors of G1 - G3 generation. (Except me, probably.) The vendor area was really small and all merchandise was specific to My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. I still ended up wearing my G1 my little pony shirt. 

I went all 3 days of the convention and it was all the way down in Anaheim too. Dave went with me 1 day and that day I dressed up as Chancellor Pudding Head. I wanted to compete in the cosplay event one of the days and when I tried to go to the timed event on the day, I found out it had been changed because 1 person could not make it later in the day. That was a huge disappointment. I didn't even see any announcement, I went by what my printed booklet said. One of the staff member said that it was tweeted out but I don't even use tweeter? How do I get it if I didn't have it? Yeah, they were very organized. Because of that, it made the whole even such a bummer. The worst part about it, one of the staff members said I probably would have won, like really? You dare even say that too me? Jerk. You don't say things like that when some one is already disappointed. Ha. Okay, enough with that.

Cool plushies.

I met John DeLancie. 


Panel with Bonnie Zacherly and Lauren Faust.

Yeah, I hope there are better conventions related to ponies in the future. Or better yet, maybe I'll just stick to the My Little Pony Fair since it's more to what I grew up on and people who go there understand and not hate the older generation. This event was horribly organized and someone who can actually take care of all business was needed. It took forever for David to even get his badge when it should have taken about 1 min. Yeah, volunteers who don't know anything were accepted. Haha. I'm done ranting about the lame staff... haha.
