Thanks for a Great No Brand Con 2009!

No Brand Con 2009 concluded today, bringing an excellent eighth year to an end! We hope that you had as much fun as we did at the convention this year, and we hope to see in you 2010 (whose date we’ll be announcing soon). For the record, 1,249 attendees came this year. That’s a lot of people for Duct Tape Boy to hug!
