LAX Stargate/Farscape Convention 2009
Posted by System Administrator | Dec 18, 2009 | Events |
On November 6 – 8th the LAX Marriott played host to Creation’s Stargate and Farscape conventions. Unlike most Creation cons I’ve been to, this was actually two separate conventions taking place at the same time. With all of the Stargate programming in one ballroom and all of the Farscape programming in the ballroom across the hall. The dealer’s area was shared between the two cons, which meant that it had a bit larger selection of vendors then I’ve seen recently. Fans who bought the Gold level tickets for one con could sit in the general admission section of the other.

Alan Tudyk’s is the final Q&A of the convention, the fans watch curiously as two chairs are brought to the stage. Of course, everyone is hoping Nathan will make a surprise appearance like he has done in the past. Alan comes onto the stage and starts setting down a few times. He then takes a bowl out of a bag and sets it on one of the chairs. Alan greets the fans and explains that Nathan sent his famous “Bean Dip” in his place and that it will be auctioned off at the end of the Q&A. He has also brought a box full of souvenir items to give away to those who can answer his trivia questions. Alan joked “thanks for showing me your cameras” as many in the crowd stuck their cameras up to catch a picture of him.
