Stars? These are D-listers.

Actually, my comment was entirely serious. I met him and had a blast taking photos of him because he was stagefighting other characters and such.

Edit: LOL, took 132 photos today, he's in about half of them.

They are stars for a sci-fi convention. Most would go nuts if they could manage to book Wesley Crusher or something.

Love the official poster. So cheesy yet well done with Calgary back there

As a fan of Alpha Flight, this is an awesome Snowbird costume.

Judge Dredd / Officer Hershey needs to be arrested but full marks for the wonderful costume idea. I've always loved the film version of the Street Judge's costume while many don't seem to like it for some reason.

I work with the girl in the middle, who won best woman's costume. She did everything by hand (her mom was another character, both from Dragon something-or-another?) and is insanely into this stuff.... pretty wicked trait in a girl if you ask me (and I am not really a geek-culture kind of guy):

Morrigan from Dragon Age: Origins. Her mother was Flemeth, Morrigan's mother.

Just in case you were at the show and took out some money from the cash machines:

We have been receiving reports that the ATM machines on the Stampede grounds during both the Women's Show and the Calgary Expo may have been comprimised; stealing bank card PIN numbers. We are working with Calgary Police and the Stampede (BMO Center) to resolve the issue.

In the meantime, if you suspect you are a victim or have any inportant information regarding this matter, contact both:

•Calgary Police Serive at (403) 266-1234
•RCMP special Anti-Fraud Unit (PhoneBusters) at 1 (888) 495-8501
