Hey everyone, there is a GPK Con coming to Las Vegas August 5th-7th 2016. I've talked to the guy that is putting this together and it sound like it'll be pretty cool. It's going to happen at a Con called the SuperToyCon, which is a Con dedicated to old school toys. The GPK Con itself will have all kinds of GPK centric events happening and artists to meet. More info on this convention is coming soon. If you see something related to this Con, please feel free to post it.    |

What do you guys think? Anyone interested? I think the idea is great and it's in Vegas. Nothing bad can happen in Vegas right?  |

I'll need some magic to happen to be able to make it. It's on the worst possibe weekend for me. I'm working on clearing the space though. |

Man I would love to go. If we are in a position financially by then, I'm going to try to make it. Sounds like a lot of fun. Just curious, is there going to be an OS art event too??  |

Vegas should be fun. Nothing bad will happen. Anyone invite DXTC and Tornshaun yet?
I propose an UG field trip to the bunny ranch.

That's the first week of school (work) for me, so it doesn't work. Those days I'm usually passed out after work from exhaustion, and stressing over lessons and s**t. That's literally THE WORST WEEK FOR ME, LOL.. December 24, 24, 26 would actually be better than August 5, 6, 7 for me, LOLOLOL. Who the fugg planned this?? Besides, anyone with kids knows this is when school starts, and that weekend is back to school shopping, etc etc etc etc... horrible time. That, or, for some people thats the last weekend before school starts and last chance to have summer family time...

The bunny ranch isn't business casual either. Business casual in Vegas? F that.

Does Vegas have a mafia like Chicago did? After seeing one of our own beaten, lying face down in the street, not knowing what happened until the next day, only to hear that he was attacked by the mafia and police because of something that he did not do (and that another UGER did), I am not sure I am up for another UG con. Hopefully, the mfer that framed Dxtr will not be coming. If he is not, I may consider going.

Don't know much about Chicago but at least in Vegas everyone is honest about trying to screw you over. |

Don't let that one event sway your opinion of the GPK community as a whole.  GPK fans from all GPK websites will be there. I have a feeling there will be quite a few people there. Way more than in Chicago.  Besides, the odds are that no one will get arrested at the next Con. It only happens 25% of the time.  |

I'm going to go. Never been to Vegas and the GPK Con seems like a great reason to go. I had a blast in Chicago for the UG con as well... even walking inebriated through murder neighborhoods on way to the police station.
