I don't live close enough to attend. Besides, I think it might be a bit too overwhelming for me.

I went to OtaCon in 05. OtaCon, not Otakon. This was in Calgary.

are there a lot of drugs there? sex? is the sex weird? i imagine it's this whole anarchic wild scene... freaky intoxicated cosplay chicks dancing to the katamari damacy soundtrack...

I already have my hotel reservation. All I need to do is to pay the registration fee as soon as they announce it.

Why would you need a hotel reservation if you live in College Park?

Anyways, I'll probably go again this year.

So I don't have to commute there every day of the convention. The hotel I'll be staying for this year is the Hilton Baltimore.

You actually commute to Otakon from College Park?

No, I would stay with my relatives who live near there.
