So is there any reason why it couldn't move to Vegas? Aside from I guess it's a big money spinner for San Diego - wouldn't Vegas be a better location in terms of hotel rooms?

Or as mentioned maybe it's time to split it between the film stuff and the actual comics/toys/merch


If I were a vendor, I guess I'd be worried about all of the other things available in Vegas that my potential customers could easily blow their cash on, instead of toys and comics.


Like 99 cent shrimp cocktail and nickel slots! :D

I forgot to mention as well that San diego holds its own in lap dances. If you've never been, then you need to check it out at SDCC this year. I propose the Nerdquake be held there this year.

Progress on the "Comic-Con staying in San Diego" front:

Quote:
A complicated land deal has been reached that bolsters hope for a $753 million expansion of the San Diego Convention Center, a move viewed as crucial to preventing blockbuster events such as Comic-Con from fleeing to a different city.

Officials with the Port of San Diego and the convention center have agreed to work together for the expansion and a long-desired hotel after negotiating a deal with a private business group that controls the 7-acre bayfront plot in downtown San Diego where the two projects would be built.

The deal, which the Port Commission is expected to approve Tuesday, would remove a major barrier for the proposed expansion. Officials say the larger center, projected to open in 2015, would maintain San Diego’s status as a dominant player in the convention circuit.
