Description of Event (Please share as much info as you can):
This is a small show featuring around 50 dealer tables, with gaming and costume contests as well. The show floor was packed with toys, comics, art, and collectibles. Each of us found some treasure to take home and some we couldn't afford. We trooped the show floor but perhaps had even more fun in the parking lot waving down cars and even commandeering a large transport by posing as valets. There were many children in costume and we posed for a ton of pictures. The Moose Lodge folks were very accommodating giving us plenty of room to change and take breaks as well as giving us cold water. It was a really fun troop and we hope to return next year.

"Come to the Dark Side, we have donuts."
Three troopers walk into a bar...and the last one hits his head!
