Freeper Convention looks like it's a total bust LOL
Man they are all but begging people to go to it.

Love the latest message where if you're having financial difficulties JimRob will "work out a payment plan!"

Hope they have a payment plan for all those empty porta-potties cuz this sounds like the saddest Freeper event EVER.

1. OK OK - I went to THAT site
My favorite rule was - "Persons under 21 years of age will not be served alcoholic beverages. Persons under age 18 must be accompanied by a responsible adult".

How will you get any "responsible adult" at this convention? :crazy:

4. "accompanied by a responsible adult"
That phrase should be applied to all that attend.

"Mom, can I have $40 to go to my convention! Please! I'll clean up the apartme, er, the basement, I promise!"

3. I wonder if there will be a seating section for Moms
so they can watch over their basement dwelling sons.

5. Amazing, they must of searched long and hard
for a venue that takes seriously the need to keep sharp objects and lighters away from this sort of convention goer.

All ten or so of them.

6. Hell, they can't get their posters to donate to theier fund drive.

How will they get anyone to pay 175 bucks for a convention - not to mention travel and lodging.

Maybe all seven of them should just meet in Phil Garrido's back yard for a few days. There are tents for lodging and the radio is probably already tuned in to Rush.
