I absolutely and highly recommend all of them! If you've been to a convention before, here's a little of what to expect:
* They have about 3,000 people at each of them - so smaller than some cons, but bigger than others.
* Usually the lines are pretty short, which means you have time to do and see more stuff.
* Usually the panels and events are hilarious and fun, often better than other panels and events you've seen before.
* There's unlimited free soda (pepsi, Mt. Dew, etc), cup ramen, and rice all weekend
* There's tons of dealers and artists to check out
