Viva Las Vegas Thursday

This was the first day of the SOE Fanfaire 2009. We had never been to a Fanfaire ever so this was going to be an experience. We decided after Matt wasn't feeling well this day Uurs and I decided to get him a Scooter. MAN these things are just freaking awesome. We decided that morning to pick one up for him.



We also decided to get breakfast at the Sidewalk cafe. Jethal told me that if Hello Kitty kissed him that he would make her an honorary Jethal's girl.



After breakfast we decided to stand in line to wait for our badge so that we are not there for hours. The line extended from one side of the hotel out to the casino floor. Below is what we saw at the begining of registration. We were number like 8 to 9 in line. Out of like 2,000 people.




Hello kitty was comfortable in line in the basket. Matt in the scooter, Hello Kitty was having a blast in the basket with the water that Steph and her family was so awesome to give us.


Once we were inside we met new friends, and got to see a lot of vendors, not as many as Norwescon but enough to get by I suppose.



This is Trueflight and Zandi. They are guildmates and new friends. They were more than willing to pose with Hello Kitty.

One of the Gunner Girls was too excited to pose with Hello Kitty. She was just esctatic. She loved it. Hello Kitty even has the Gunner Glasses on for the look.

We met DenMother. She was a great person, and even gave us Trailmix, Cashews, and dark chocolate covered cranberries. She thought of us and the next day she gave Uurs just the dark chocolate cranberries, as he was allergic to the Cashews.




I also got pictures with the Free Realms chars. (This is a free game for kids and adults alike.) It was awesome because one of these pictures was famous. I don't remember which one, but it was posted on a website. After a few hours of playing around in the main area, we had the opening ceremonies.

After the open ceremonies Hello Kitty made an address, none heard it.. but it was fun to pretend.



I posed with Hello Kitty and Brenlo, ZOMG an EQII producer. He actually works for SOE. He also was super sweet.


Helig, loved hello kitty soo much he requested to have his own picture with her. He is a guild member and was one of the 10 that went so that we could get our guild a 50% discount.

This is Zanadi and Brasse from thebrasse.com. It was just was fun to see them love hello kitty.


We also met Lera, (not a frostfell elf) and Jethal. Jethal was trying to get Lera. This picture is just awesome.



We also met Roewane. She is also another guild mate. She also was having fun holding Hello Kitty. This was the last picture of the night. This is Uurs and the statue of Firiona Vie. This was the original costume that was worn when the original EQ was launched. It was just awesome to be in the room with it.
After everything we did a little more gambling but then went to bed as we had a very long day of panels ahead of us.
