More Bubbas!

Yes, SoonerCon 2010 was called "2010: A Bubba Odyssey." It was June 4-5-6, held at the Biltmore at I-40 and Meridian. Here's the Pocket Program:

And to refresh your memory, here's the primo John Kaufman art which was also featured on the t-shirt:

ThunderCon 6 Flyers

ThunderCon 6 was May 31-June 1-2, 1996.  

As everybody knows, ThunderCon was established by "ThunderChief" Larry Nemecek, antipodally in summer, to balance SoonerCon.

That is, ThunderCon, aka "Larry's media con," was a mass-sci-fi-media gathering, in contrast to SoonerCon's intents as a "litcon."

Above is the legal-sized flyer.  Yeah, our guest was Ethan Phillips of Star Trek: Voyager and many other enterprises.

This here is our letter-sized flyer.

PS to see Ethan Phillips THIS year, come to Soonercon 33!

See ya in the ethereal beyond, fellow space cadets!

  

Mini-Con in '84

As everybody knows (or should), NOSFA stands for Norman Oklahoma Science Fiction Association.

They held a one-day Mini-Con on February 18, 1984.

Good ole Kent Cordray is still kickin' about in Oklahoma.  And dear friend CJ Cherryh is ever in our hearts!

I was there, were YOU?

See you in the funny papers!

  

SoonerCon 5 Badges and Pocket Program

Yup, that's what is in this post.  Soonercon 5 was November 17-19, 1989.

My badge.  This might have been one of the years in which I sold stuff in the Dealers Room.

Scooter had a STAFF ribbon, but his role is not mentioned in the Program Book, so I don't know where he helped.

You can check out other posts -- "SoonerCon 5" in the SEARCH BY TOPIC bar -- to learn more.  One thing of note is that SoonerCon 5 was the debut of SoonerCon mascot Boomer, created by Kevin Hopkins.

See you next time, fellow fans!
