Cosplaying:

Wizard World always boasts some of the best cosplays around. Then again, this being New Orleans, sometimes we cosplay because it is a Tuesday. Therefore, we have a leg up on some other cities.
Here is some of the cosplay we saw this weekend:

Gaming:

In addition to cosplaying, gaming is hugely popular at Wizard World. Even though we are not huge gamers by any stretch of the imagination, but we do enjoy going into this area and watching people enjoy themselves. We are big on conventions being a place to find your tribe and events like this allow gamers to see other gamers. Midwest eSports did a great job with the area.

People Watching:

Part of the fun of any comic convention is people watching. Not just coplayers and gamers, but just regular people. You can almost tell who is a first timer. They walk in a little skeptical, but walk out a child. Parents love watching their kids faces light up when they see their favorite heroes. We loved the attention our little one got dressed up in her costumes.

Very few people walkout of a convention unhappy. Most of us remember what it is like to be a kid again.

That is if we ever grew up in the first place.
