Very nice please!
RecommendedI had a wonderful experience. I saw people using the elevator andI had no trouble with hand soap. Saturday was elbow to elbow people, but it was fun. Sunday was great because there were less people and the celebrities had more time to talk. I love going to the panels. One thing that I particularly love is the cosplay people who dress up and are so gracious to have their pictures taken with people. It is wonderful to watch children getting their pics taken with Power Rangers, Batman, Groot, etc. These people put a lot into th... read more
The building is great but the AC was not on or not working this past weekend at #fanboy Knoxville and need better lines for celebrities this past weekend it was bad!!! You need to learn from other comic cons!!! Lexington comic con had it right this year put celebrities all in one area and vendors somewhere else!!!
I know there was no AC onBecause a worker told me so because they were told there was too many people I’ve been to these before and the air is on and coolAfter being at fanboys Saturday for 30 minutes my frozen water was melted and hot I was there an hour and had to leave because I passed out from heat exhaustion so I couldn’t get my pictures with Backstreet Boys because they would not be back until five the worst experience I’ve ever had that was supposed to be the best
It got to Hot need better Air conditioner.. Some of the big name celebrities were to close together. I wanted a Ron Perlman 8x10 autograph but didn’t know where his line started. The big name celebrities need more room for fan lines.. They should have one room for celebrities and one room for vendors to keep it from being to crowded.. Other Comic Cons do this, Knoxville Fanboy should try this.
It was HOT Saturday during Fanboy. People were stripping off their costumes and body paint was running. My sister got so hot we had to leave and she threw up. They used super cheap paper wristbands that were supposed to last all 3 days. For the size of the convention there were not enough panels to fill the time...especially for the price compared to other conventions. I expected more. Also James Marsters cancelled the day before the convention. He was the reason i got tickets and a hotel... there was no time to cancel the h... read more
Convention center okay but Knoxville really needs more downtown restaurants. Not everyone wants con food or wants to wait 2 hours in line to get it. Only had one concession booth open for thousands of people. #fanboy #fanboyexpo should think about food trucks next year.
Need better air conditioning. Event staff was brutal about VIP passes and prevented several from meeting some of the guests. They also didn’t announce some of the guests. They didn’t have enough chairs for the customers to take a break if they needed them. Need more chairs for next years Fanboy event!
