Fansite author, volunteer wrote:NAN DESU KAN,
guests canceled last moment, fire alarms pulled, hotel sold out,
presentation easel missing, carafe is out of water, tables dirty,
hallways obstructed, pranksters, shoplifting, guest complaints,
dry erase markers are dry, rooftop dance dance, screwy av stuff,
attendees comlaining, shirt cashbox missing, phone line failure
THE END OF THE ENTIRE WORLD
But we do it every year, year after year, for the attendees.
