I would give serious thought to overcome my fear of flying to be there in a jiffy
Hee. Sometimes a strong desire to be someplace can get you on a plane when you fear flying. That's how I flew from east coast to west last year... Comic Con!
I've never been to a con, so I'm not sure what would be expected.
I'm still pretty new to cons myself. I've been to the biggie, Comic Con San Diego and also to Dragon*Con. but I've only been to one small con and I was only there for a couple hours. The typical things are panels/Q&As, autographs/photo ops, social activities and vendors. So you're already thinking along the right lines.
and pancakes
Pancakes! Yes. That was actually an idea we'd talked about before - a pancake breakfast or pancake cook-off contest.
cosplay contest?
Y'know, I don't think a con can exist without costumes, even if it's a con for a show like TSCC where everyone looks pretty normal.
talent shows
Maybe people performing scenes? That could be fun. Or maybe parodies of scenes or musical renditions of scenes.
I'm trying to remember what other ideas we'd thrown around before... trivia contest comes to mind. That's all I can think of at the moment.
