11/11/12 - Anime USA 2012! Not many cosplay photos, but lots of fun!

I ran into the one and only Kevin Smith at the Buffalo Airport! Looking good, Kev!

Our plane apparently pulled off a sonic rainboom

Really, the sun as on the other side of the plane and refracted off the upper layers of a cloud, and of course created a shadow of the plane

Vic snapped this photo of me tweaking the code of the sign app while it was displaying in the hallway

The Powerpuff Girls!

An amazing Gyarados cosplay! I also liked her because she spent a lot of time in the VAT

AMV Singalong didn't have the greatest turnout, but the guy in the pink hair was really into it

Grumpy Cat was the official mascot of the VAT control booth

Another Pinkie Pie cosplayer!

I haven't even played this game and I was impressed by this Journey cosplay

This DJ-PON3 cosplayer was all over the place all weekend

This guy said he was cosplaying as "The Mythbusters"

For Omar's cake this year, he went with a waffle theme. It's not actually a giant waffle and that's not actually an enormous pad of butter... but it all looks like it!

Downtime

The new hotel could best be described as labyrinthine

A flower? From me?? Thanks Enderwoman!

Omnipresent Jefferson strikes again!

Tearing down the VAT

Vic tackled the difficult task of taking down the server

Brakus kicked in and isn't even on staff!

Looking through the leftover prizes to decide what Vlad gets for his winning Upbeat video
