Recall your experiences at an anime convention.

Seriously, I've never even seen one and I want to hear some funny, or possibly horrifying *shudders* stories about your experiences.
<You can skip this part if you don't like rants.>
So I took a look at those pictures on the front page...
I guess I feel better about myself, but god damn.
Sometimes, they dress up pretty good. Sometimes, they even look, to a good extent, just like the characters. Sometimes, someone knows exactly wtf they're doing, when it comes to dressing up for parties (furries, maybeh?)
THEN you get people that look like a face smeared with shit. I remember this one large group of people posing for an SSBB picture. They all looked like crap, but then this one short bastard was dressing as Meta Knight...or should I say "The Hobo Ninja* I swear, he looked like a ninja using a trashbag and some cardboard as his outfit more than he did Meta Knight.
And, the girls that dress up? Why do most of them have to be really really huge!? Why can't we get any that are actually closer to the weight of the anime characters?
Shit, I saw this really fat black lady posing as Netto from that Rockman.exe cartoon...first off, Netto is white, he is male, and he doesn't weigh 400-500 pounds!
Damn, she would be better off as the dude that owns Gutsman.
<Ok, that's the end of the rant part.>
Seriously, though, have any of you ever gone to something like that? Tell your experiences, whether you were just passing by or whether you actually got in on the action.
