Aggiecon is a convention where you can find a Jedi to your left and a hobbit to your right where all the nightmares of the apocalypse come to life and geeks run free.

Twenty-five years ago, my dad was a senior here. Twenty-five years later, I’m now a senior too.

Mayhem Fest 2011 was our destination.

What’s better than dancing to loud dubstep, bright laser light shows, and being in a room full of strange people who you’ve never met before hugging you and saying how much they love you, all while wearing crazy clothes and sharing their beautiful glowing kandi “braclets”? Nothing if you ask me!
