Memorial Day weekend thousands of people took over the Orange County Convention Center for MegaCon 2016, and I was one of them!
The four day event featured lots of great cosplay, genre-themed panels, and merchandise to buy. But one of the main highlights of the weekend for me were the celebrity panels, where we were able to spend time with our favorite actors, and even ask questions if we were fast enough to line up for the microphones.
