Anthro New England 2024 "It's A Nor'Eastah!," January 18-21, 2024:

Aiden Rexford talked me into going to Anthro New England 2024 literally an hour before the room block opened. I figured "Why the hell not?" and jumped right in! I was lucky enough to score a room because most were claimed or sold out within four minutes!

Nevertheless, after the room situation was resolved, I opted to host the VRChat Meet-and-Greet, which was approved, and was the convention's first ever VRChat meet-and-greet in its nine-year history!

The convention was nice, and while it took me a day or so to get really acclimated to it, once I was engrossed, I was off to the races!

I hosted the convention's first ever VRChat Meet-and-Greet, which had 80-100 people in attendance, to the point that security had to close the room and turn people away at the door!

The banner signed by everyone in attendance was auctioned off for $225! It went so fast, I could barely get any of it recorded on my phone!

In the end, 4,482 people attended the convention, with almost 900 suited up for the parade and $30,000 raised for charity!

Thanks to Dusk The Silent Wusky for finding the convention schedule and DJ lists after the convention was over so I could credit people properly!
