I remember one year, I was hanging around the booth for the wargame company The Gamers, when the Chainmail Lady came strutting by. Suddenly, all the guys at The Gamers' booth who had been scoping the Lady out from a distance got real shy. Somebody tried to get Gamers owner Dean Essig to pose for a photo with the Lady, and he politely but firmly declined. His face was quite red.
If you want a really fun time at Origins, go to the Smithee Awards with Dean and his gang. Dean is one of the coolest guys in the wargame biz and loves to have a laugh.
Another one of my most fun Origins memories was meeting Masahiro Yamazaki and finding that he actually remembered me from the previous year.
