I'm not saying it might not be on the decline but if you were there 6 years ago that's just before the recession. A lot of aspects of the economy really haven't recovered yet and thinks like conventions for more niche products probably are the first thing many people would cut from their budget. As a 25 year old I would have loved to go, also wanted to go to a retro gaming convention in my area (I'm in Wisconsin) but I couldn't justify going after getting back from my honeymoon just a few days prior. quote:

ORIGINAL: wodin Mark Walker mentioned that Historicon seemed quiet with less vendors...shame I spent around 6 hours there today. I mainly went to meet the Matrix gang. The event seems to be a shadow of its former self. A lot less games being played, fewer vendors, not as organized as before and less people for sure. I did meet Joel and Gary and some other of the Matrix staff. What a great bunch of folks!
