Now that Futurama's coming back soon, there's been a buzz about cast and crew coming to conventions and events around the country and world. Instead of having a different thread for each one of these, I thought it would be better to have one thread for all Futurama-related events. Post upcoming events and conventions with Futurama cast and crew and post footage or experiences at these events and conventions.


Here's some information about the San Diego Comic-Con 2007, or just Comic-Con 2007, that I had posted in the Movie Speculation thread:
