Twiztid

Another great con was thrown by our friends in Twiztid over the weekend. All sorts of awesome guests including famed actor and screenplay writer, Kevin Smith. He was joined by several of his Clerks cast members, including Jay Mewes.

Wrestling is always a big draw for the fans. Lita, Gangrel, Rob Van Dam, and Buff "the Stuff" Bagwell were in attendance. For me personally, it was fun to meet Gangrel. I'd never met him before, but we hung a lot on Sunday, thanks to my friend Steve from the Greatest Wrestling Collection. A really good guy!

It's always fun to see the fans, and the celebrity guests at this event which usually takes place in a weekend in April.

A special Thank You to George Vlahakis and his great crew for putting on an awesome event.

Here's a little slice of the weekend at the Burton Manor in Livonia.
