Even if you’re shy about your inner-nerd, you can still have an awesome time at the Con! Cosplay is not required, but it does make people-watching more fun than usual. When you’re not observing or mingling with the massive crowds of people, stop by one of the hundreds of vendors’ booths and pick up trinkets, souvenirs, and gear from your favorite show, movie, or book.
