So, with still a lot of time before September 4th Dragon Con in Atlanta, Georgia it's already looking like a MONSTER gathering of Ghostheads. So much so I've already lost count. Now I'm not saying I'm the originator of this event, or of Ghostheads going, but I have done a lot of talking to convince more and more people to come. So lets get the cast list going of those who we can hope to party down with in Atlanta for Dragon Convention 2009! Westin Peachtree Plaza Atlanta Close to Con. (No Vacancy)Dan AKA (Confirmed)Hooker (Confirmed)Jairus (Confirmed)Hyatt Regency HotelConvention Held Here.

I might show up for one of the days. I should be in ghost gear, too.

Awesome thread idea, Dan. I also found a way to stay in hotel like a civilized person instead of sleeping in my van for 3 nights This will be an awesome time.

It's a strong possibility that I will be able to attend this year. I have to see what my finances look like at the end of the month. I'm expecting a bonus, but I am not holding my breath on this one. My one major concern is that the hotels are either filled or are almost full. Does anyone have a list of hotels in the surrounding municipalities that wouldn't be too far to stay at and drive into the Con? These are probably filling up already, too.

I live just minutes outside of Atlanta, so there's a good possibility that I'll show up. Hopefully my new pack will be finished in time.

Mitora and I will be there on Friday Night, not officially at the con just in Atl, and at the con all Saturday in gear.

The list keeps growing and I must say, I'm excited to see all of you.
(and Hook, yes, this will be an amazing gathering of Ghostheads to share in celebrating the 25th Anniversery.)

And one of those things should be the parade with all of us. Goosebot wrote: including myself, ill be bringing 8 busters. all suited up. If any of them are users here, you can PM thier names so I can add em to the list. One of the reasons for this is to count our numbers and perhaps have some Ghostbusters exclusives for those attending (it's still in the works.)

theres a parade in the morning one one of the first days. everyone just gets grouped up according to costume and marches or drives all over downtown atlanta.
i dont know if we would be marching with the ghostbusters or the 405th guys. it all depends on if i get my current ODST projects done before the con.
