Comic-Con: The decision


After months (maybe even years) of fanboy speculation and rumors out of control, the decision as to where Comic-Con would end up after 2012 has finally be answered.

And you hear that noise?

A few die-hard geeks died a little inside.

According to a just released press release from the Comic-Con organizers, the annual pop culture convention is staying in San Diego "for the foreseeable future."

"We are grateful for the tireless efforts all three cities put into to their proposals," said David Glanzer, Comic-Con's director of marketing and public relations, in the press release. "In the end, we feel this decision is the best for all those who attend Comic-Con and for the organization itself. We are happy that the community has worked with us to ensure that we remain here."

That means unbearable crowds for the "forseeable future" until San Diego finishes it's multi-million dollar upgrade to the convention center and surrounding area.

Now that is over, can we put 100 percent focus into fixing the horrific hotel situation?
