Awesome! Is the picnic free admission? I can imagine all the cosplayers scaring the pants off the little kids lol

I can totally see cosplayers in the 3 legged race.

L and Light, Cloud and Sephiroth, Tamaki and Haruhi.......

Awesome.

They're going to eat our parking and make it hard to do good photoshoots out there. Luckily they're just gonna be out there Saturday, right?

My worry would just be parking.  Hopefully they don't eat too much of the con goers parking options.

Okay, it's too easy for them just to do the race in costume... they have to also stay IN CHARACTER *cackles*
Cloud and Sephiroth would never make it to the finish line...
