Back when I joined the pony fandom in early 2011 I had no idea that a scant year later I would be making my first trip to New York City for a pony convention. It was my first time ever going to a convention, let alone a pony one, and would be the first time I would put a face to many of my online friends and EqD associates. Flash forward almost two years and once again I was landing in LaGuardia to spend not only my second time in the city of my first pony convention, but spend my first time as an actual guest at a convention as well.
What followed was a perfect example of Brony hospitality, exploration, and making new friends that make conventions like Big Apple well worth visiting and that I'm proud to include as one of my many positive experiences in the pony fandom!
Welcome to another Calpain retrospective everyone! I'm gonna be busy writing these considering TrotCon is this week with EFNW following soon after. So let's dive in!
