Yay Tim & Eric Awesomecon, Fuck Comicon!
So as mentioned in earlier posts, we spent most of last week in San Diego for Comicon 2009. While we had a great time and all at Comicon, the real reason we were in San Diego was for Tim & Eric’s Awesomecon! Held in the park behind the convention center, Awesomecon was three hours of good times with Tim, Eric & a slew of the cast! There were games, karaoke, a trivia and costume contest… but best of all was just getting to meet all of our favorite people from the Tim & Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!… Like Palmer Scott who did just what promised and sat right on Greg’s lap!
Accompanying Greg & myself was Miranda who runs Unsteady out in San Diego. James Quall took a particular liking to Miranda and I think he may have even slipped her his digits!
I on the other hand met the kind of guy I could be best friends with! After Awesomecon we headed over into town to get some magnetic piercings and had dinner at Red Lobster where we got the hook-up (manager’s special!). Then it was off to the beach for some virgin coladas (no rum!). Best vacation ever!
Greg & I with Ron Ashton AKA Pierre! Towards the end of Awesomecon, Greg was having an intense discussion with Pierre regarding T-shirts and meeting his dad, no joke!
Greg with Bob Ross, the man behind the Bro-oach! Don’t know what that is? Wait ’til season 5!
Greg with David Liebe Hart! Greg waited in line for half an hour to meet David and get the below caricature done.
Check out that old photo of David on the CD and who’s that in the background!?? Michael Q. Schmidt, Raise my roof!!!
Greg with Richard Dunn! So were are our photos with Tim & Eric? Well the line to meet Tim & Eric was moving ridiculously slow and we came up with an alternative plan to get our photos taken with Tim & Eric…
We decided to creep up from behind them and have our photos taken!
Miranda got into the action also as we tried to get a few photos of us that looked like we had our arms around both Tim & Eric… we failed miserably and eventually Tim & Eric got wind of what we were doing but were amused by it. Not amused enough to let us cut the line though :(
A shot from the costume contest with someone dressed up as Jeff Gold Blue Man Group.
Here’s some footage I found on Youtube of the costume contest
While here’s footage of the Trivia contest whose grand prize included a Jet Ski ride with Tim & Eric, but sadly not Raz.
I hope to see you at Awesomecon 2010!
