Had a wedding to attend on Saturday evening, but during the day I checked out the Anime Day<\/a> event down the road at Gas South District (formerly Gwinnett Center).\u00a0 Pretty cool show, especially for $5.00!\u00a0 Parking was also $5.\u00a0 It’s nice to see a show affordable enough for the young folk to get in and still have money to spend on things. The old Gwinnett arena area has been going through some serious renovations the past few years.\u00a0 It would be great if future cons would choose this location.\u00a0 Saves driving into the city and the costs would be much less egregious. (DragonCon $40 parking I’m looking at you…)\u00a0 Anyways, here are some of the photos I managed to get in a short visit.\u00a0 Thanks to all the cosplayers who posed for photos!<\/p>\n\n\n
