I am never going to Fanexpo again. I am probably never going to any corporate-run convention again.

The short version is (a) their event planning assumes everyone is young, able-bodied, and not traveling with small children, and (b) that such people have no need for chairs or benches over the course of a long day.

My thanks to the various fans who gave us water and generally tried to help. Security, OTOH, tended to be standing over green_trilobite whenever I cam back from a reconnaissance or beverage-finding mission, and would then ask me why I wasn't helping him.

We gave up after a few hours of green_trilobite semi-collapsing, ate the ticket costs and came home without seeing Stan Lee. Oh, and getting out of the building was fun, too - I finally steered green_trilobite through what turned out to be a fire door, and got yelled at by another security guard; but at least he let us leave.

:-( How awful. Fan expo is notorious, even amongst other corporate run cons for rotten setups but this is beyond the pale. They're probably violating municipal bylaws by not providing proper access for mobility impaired people.
