After reading the thread "sabercon" and thinking a lot about meeting like minded individuals (saber duelists), I was wondering if actually listing the cons we each normally go to would be helpful.  I mean even if two or three guys get together from one part of the country and attend a con and do a little dueling, how much fun would would that be?
And not to mention Ultrasabers showing up at some of these cons as well.
And has anyone every seen any actual saber dueling at a con, I am not talking rehearsed, but an actual roped off area that allowed it? i think if Ultrasabers would dedicate a space next to thier booth at a con, and a few forum members showed up to demonstrate dueling techniques in a controlled environment, letting potental customers both handle and try out the sabers in combat, would be benefical to them....
Saber clubs could also get some floor space for such a thing.
I know there may be some liability there, but its just a thought.

Anyway I live in the Kansas City, MO area, Local Cons:
Planet Comic Con-May 20-22nd 2016 
Go every year, it has become very big.  Ultrasabers attended this.     
http://planetcomicon.com/
KCCC August 7-9 2015
New con *I think* just found out about it, I will attend this one.
http://www.kansascity-comiccon.com/

The other possiblility here is we compile a list of dates and find out it may be possible to take a road trip and hit several in a row, making new friends along the way.
Mods: if this is in the wrong area please move, I wasn't sure where to put it.
Thanks!

I've never actually gone to a con, but I live in southern Arizona.
I know the Phoenix Comicon is pretty huge now - I have friends who have volunteered at it.

That being said I'd be willing to travel some - I'd be interested to hear what's available in Texas as that's sort of centrally located in comparison to some of the other cons that have been mentioned.

If we think its a good idea to keep a list up like this, I will compile a list at the end after we get more people to repond. The idea here is that someone on the forum may contact whoever is near that con if they are planning a trip, or a group may meet at a con. So perhaps a list of cons with forum members names beside them for contact purposes.

Another one I will add to the list, I don't live by it though:
