I'll be there, with the proverbial bells on. I'm GMing all the Brick Battles
events, but will probably not have an opportunity to play much else, as I'm also
running demos for Ad Astra Games.

Hmm. Well, as with any major convention, there will be professional as well as
volunteer security on duty; and given the size of it, I imagine police as well.
And while it is a new venue, it's still a well-established con, and the
organizers are experienced at running a smooth, safe event.
Also, there is always at least 1 GLUG event running at all times, which means
there will always be at least 1 person you "know" in our area, and almost
certainly more.
There isn't much more I can contribute to calming a Paranoid Parent; it's been
too long since I had one, and it isn't that far off that I'll *be* one. I will
note that gaming conventions attract a lot of teenagers - that's a large part of
their target demographic. Keeping things safe and accessable for teenagers is
good business. Gencon's been around for a long time - if it wasn't safe for
teens, something would have happened by now.
