I read an article about this recently. I had no idea conventions were so lucrative:

Interesting article.

It's weird how the convention circuit as professionalized so much in my lifetime. I mean, there were always some for-profit cons that were run be the Creations of the world. But now it seems that seems to be the norm rather than the exception.

It's also stunning to me how much the prices have jacked upwards as a result. I haven't gone to a convention in *years* because it seems like you have to pay through the nose if you want to do more than wander the convention floor, visit the dealer's room, and spend all your time waiting in line for hours to get into a panel or two.
