I do enjoy conventions, but haven't been to DragonCon because it is on the otherside of the country from me. This was the first year I considered going because Lucy Lawless was a guest, but they only announced her about a month beforehand, which was too short of notice for me to plan such a faraway trip. I attend Xena Con (just two states away from me), but she has a lot of handlers at Xena Con that prevent you from really interacting with her. Sounds like DragonCon gives the stars a lot more freedom to interact with fans.
