It seems to me that if you're getting paid a lot of money and these are your real fans, you could at least clean up and look good. Also, don't show up drunk or with a hangover. That's not cool, either.
For years and years, it was a struggle to get the studios to recognize that their fans were a valuable resource, both monetarily but probably more importantly from a marketing perspective. Now that's quite clear on the Internet. Of course you know what Comic Con has turned into.
That's help us get noticed by Hollywood, the fact that these fans are a wellspring of money for the studios. With Lost, for instance, ABC called us (to initiate a convention tour). That was a really nice compliment after all these years.
