I'd like to see a venue where thin, attractive women are also allowed.

And are wrestled in a cage by oiled biker chicks in chainmail.

Wrath James White is a horror author and former kickboxing champ local to Vegas. They should tap him as a guest.

Good call, I've passed his name on to the organizers.

My work takes me to Vegas a couple times a year, and I've been there when the Star Trek convention was going on. There are at least 3 thin, attractive female trekkies. I saw them with my own eyes.

At the end of the day, they are eaten by the klingon chicks.

Seems like an interesting event, but it's like they're not sure if it's a HEMA expo or a sci-fi convention. I guess the two can sorta go together, but I'm not really feeling the cohesion, especially on their site/schedule.

I am curious about "Zombie Cage Fighter" though.

Haha holy ****. nightmares anyone? I'd rather take another broken nose, maybe even ten-fold, than even THINK of trying something like THAT. (if it were possible of course)

As someone with a foot in both camps, this is a bad idea. Nerds are creatures of imagination. You know what you get when your school is taken over by people with overactive imaginations? The Bujinkan.

I saw a tv programme about a morbidly obese mexican troll woman and a body builder who repossess stuff and they took away the car of a man dressed as Spock, his girlfriend was with him and she was hot! He hadn't payed the money for the car loan so he could buy the tickets to the Trekkie convention and he started crying. Was pretty funny.

It depends on what kind of con you go to.
If you're at a gaming or scifi con, you tend to get a pretty trollish populace.
Anime cons, conversely, tend to get more young and attractive men/women who invest a lot of effort into their appearance.

Scores of warriors. One arena. The battle continues for 24 hours without stopping. A Team Fox event, CombatCon’s 24-Hour Fencing Fundraiser, “Fight for a Cure,” will pit a multitude of combatants against one another in an effort to raise money for the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research. Many fantastic organizations fight for Parkinson’s research in many different ways, but at CombatCon, we will literally fight for it!

Here’s how it works. Schools, clubs, and individuals from across the United States and abroad will gather in Las Vegas at the Tuscany Hotel on the morning of June 24, 2011. Each team or individual will fight for a specified amount of time to insure that there is always some form of combat occurring for 24 straight hours. The styles of combat will be varied, and the weapons will span the ages of history and fantasy. This is an epic battle not to be missed- for a charity worthy of the fight!
