[@Mrs_Christa]

I was at this con!!! I got the 3 day pass and it was a blast!!!! I was there for the Doctor Who guests!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Mrs_Christa]

The room behind Slash was the room I spent the majority of my time in!! Got to spend time visiting with the Doctor Who guests and it was sooo much fun! ❤️ They were absolutely wonderful and never felt rushed during my time with them. Two of them sang Happy birthday to me and that was awesome!!

[@angelalinderman9985]

[@josephcorriveau9113]

Hey Tampa Jay Good Video today I enjoyed watch it 😁👍

[@TampaJay]

Thank you!

[@plotthirteen1595]

Mike and crew put on one hell of a convention and the city couldnt embrace it any more than they do. Great event!

[@mikegriffin7600]

Cool can't wait to what it much ahead mate

[@TampaJay]

Thank you!

[@carolyngeib4728]

[@TampaJay]

Thanks so much Carol! Hope it gets warmer up there soon for ya !

[@carolyngeib4728]

[@mikegriffin7600]

Wow that looked amazing shame you couldn't do more but like you say much ahead 😉

[@TampaJay]

So much thanks for watching Mike!’

[@garfixit]

Love you guys

[@Ronaldl2350]

Amazing how many Cons there are out there and variety of subject matter. Another fun adventure.

[@KitsuneNeko]

Pensacola is also famous for being part of the Emerald Coast... so NASA/Blue Angels and their beaches. No big. 16:47 I saw the lady but I didn't realize there was an entire crew dressed as pirates! I was one too! But not of the normal sort. 25:28 Got to watch that bus pull in with the exploded tire. Before the pulled into the parking lot they let everyone off at some point. I think they even ruined the rim. It was really bad. These buses take a lot of abuse during their normal season. They drive to the bus terminal then ALL the way to Pensacola beach. I think they head all the way to Perdido Beach then turn back around to the Dock then back into town to the terminal. I THINK it's free but it's kinda hard to catch. Easier to just pay for the normal bus to the beach and then hoof it around that area. Trolleys run from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Basically "Beach Season" so it was easy for the Con to reserve them for the event weekend. They had two trolleys and what looked like 3 church buses sponsored by the church that had one of their panels for the con. BTW they tend to run out of VIP passes by the Fall so if you plan to get one of those get those SUPER early. They were sold out when I looked to buy a second one in November. XD Oh well. I feel like I didn't utilize the VIP pass anyway... and the Dealer's Den was so crowded it was hard to walk... or even stand in one place to make a purchase.

[@whodatpat504]

I wanted to go to this but we were going on vacation instead. Maybe next year! Jay you and cris the girl did great on the video! You have to try and visit the one that comes here in Nola in January.

[@TheGatlinburgHussey]

Good morning from Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park guys!!🏞️🌄

[@horrorgreenbook]

Checking out the vlog now! I have a buddy that was doing autograph consignments there that had a blast. Hope to attend one year!

[@MoviemaniaNick]

The cosplayers look great! Looked like a fun time and great guest list.

[@B1Kobe0824]

Man this looks so great! It couldn't be son enough when the fam and I move to Florida. I wish could I move this summer but it'll take a little more time. But I'm just excited that somewhere in the not too distant future that it will happen. 😁😁😁

[@shamrockinit8747]

I think they need a bigger convention location-thanks for taking us! 😁.

[@tkguess]

Holy cow!

[@stuckeystop]

Thanks for stopping at Stuckey's!

[@TampaJay]

You are so welcome! Thanks so much for having us, Stephanie!!

[@EmberRaye87]

You stayed at the same hotel that we did for Pensacon! It was super nice. And the con was a lot of fun. Loved meeting all the celebrities. We were there for all 3 days and plan to go again next year. Next time you should check out the themed restaurants and arcades they have around downtown as well.

[@TampaJay]

That’s so amazing

[@lunalynn70]

I love the Buc-ees shirt. So cute! 🥰 I can never go into a Buc-ees and not get a new shirt and the brisket sandwich. Good to know that they took your snacks. Definetly leave them in the car. What kinda threat does beaver nuggets cause 😂

[@TampaJay]

Love that shirtb Bucees is awesome

[@mermer3168]

I love Mark Hadley's art! I hope you bought something. I have a few pieces from him when he was in Lakeland. Lakeland has a small comic con as well, but it's definitely smaller lol.

[@naybur74]

"THE CON IS ON"!!!

[@BeardedHoosierAdventures]

Coming to Orlando for magacon from Indiana. If you guys go I hope to run into you guys

[@trx670]

Cool video. Looks like you had a great time! I was the robot loL

[@TampaJay]

Thank you Timmy

[@RoadiewithRich]

Pretty crowded event!

[@tocomplex5005]

I’m in this video lol me and my friend. the Rex helmets on the table with the blue milk are ours

[@leearmstrong2743]

Mornin Jay!!!

[@vacation_fun_makers]

You will have Trekkie and Star Wars fans wanting to hunt you down for that mistake Jay lol eeks but that was pretty funny good thing Chris was there to correct you :)

[@Tammy-oi2pp]

FYI.Neil Diamond watched the Movie E.T. it inspired him to write a 🎵 song, Heartlight s .. He was hit with copyright infringement but paid it ,I'd have been honored to have a song come from a movie I helped create. People yish

[@Kimmygray1204]

For Pensacon I HIGHLY recommend VIP pass it’s so worth it. I was cutting past everyone

[@Mrs_Christa]

Oh you got to see Christian From Legend of the Traveling Tardis!!! Such a sweet guy!!

[@Leftmyselfinwonderland]

Also they have a Facebook page that they update a lot and an app for if you come next time ❤️

[@nickg8182]

If I was there I would of hugged venom Dino because of the epic cuteness

[@Mrs_Christa]

Honestly, the crowds didn’t bother me as bad cause I was there by myself on Saturday and Sunday. But when you are wanting to get down to the vendor floor, having only one way down and one way up is a little difficult to maneuver!

[@canadianboy666]

love the Stab shirt

[@bjornemccomb8262]

Omg Chris’ Bucees shirt is adorable 😍

[@TampaJay]

I love it!

[@chadandnatasha]

You guys need to check out Smoky Mountain Terror coming to Pigeon Forge in September! Great lineup!

[@markimoofan1239]

Another fun con video, i'd be like cris meet the famous ppl i want to meet then get teh heck out of there... that one is a little to snug for me... i couldnt do that no way :O props to you guys

[@TampaJay]

[@jacobkrug]

[@mikegriffin7600]

Hey mate did you get the 2 coffee's Me and my wife (jess) bought you ?

[@TampaJay]

[@kevenrapp6922]

[@TampaJay]

[@magiccheeseball]

Good morning Tampa jay!

[@TampaJay]

Good morning!

[@jacquelinejanewashere]

Fake Slash was shreddin 🖤🌹

[@Leftmyselfinwonderland]

I'm so sad I missed y'all. I live in Pensacola and this was my first year I had plans to go and was so excited but I've been sick for 3 weeks with some horrible bug and couldn't go Sunday 😭😭😭 but atleast I can see what it was like through y'all. You and Cris the girl are some of my favorite KZbinrs so it would of been cool to see y'all! 🖤 Hopefully won't be your last visit here.

[@TampaJay]

Oh no so sorry you’ve been sick! We would have loved to say hello!! I hope you feel better soon, Connie! I’m happy you were able to join us and see the con vicariously! Hope to bump into you in the much ahead! Thanks for always watching and being so good to us. We will be back! Much ahead, my friend!

[@NotCheesity]

I was in thos video!

[@eerieauthor]

You got to handle The Traveling TARDIS!

[@TampaJay]

It was an honor!

[@Elyse1997]

Oh no, had to throw away the Buccees snacks! How unfortunate and sad. Hopefully there are more treats in the car. Did you happen to notice if they put out the class of 2023 shirts yet? I need them for the kids. :)

[@maxsmith7820]

Maxsmith said hi to you TJ

[@cindypowel7517]

Just downright cruel 2 take away the Bucee muchies! Hower the convention made up 4 it with the number of celebrities, that was amazing. I also would have chosen the white chocolate gopher, lol. Cris looked happy, happy, and happy with the signing of the snake. Back in my day, this show was 1 of the favorites. As always thx 4 taking us all along on your star filled journey

[@TampaJay]

It was a fun day! Thank you so much Cindy

[@savy_Cos]

I saw myself in the back ground lol of some clips

[@TampaJay]

Glad you found the video and yourself! So awesome

[@RyanNodal305]

I wish you and Jordan the Lion were there the same day. Would’ve loved to have seen your interaction with him

[@TampaJay]

I didn’t realize he was there! O wow. We keep missing each other!

[@RyanNodal305]

@@TampaJay yep he met the Revenge of the Nerds cast there

[@hotnerd8428]

Theres sean clark theres scott on tape but no adam the woo or grimm life collective would be cool there should be a youtube convention would be awsome

[@MikeRuh01]

Cool Costumes TJ. I like how people put time into dressing up like someone or something. lol, That Buc-ee is pretty jealous and demanding of you when he see's ya with some Stuckey's

[@phenomenalfx2965]

@19:40 Eruption! EVH gone too soon.

[@bomcalister7252]

It was horrible this year...the venues have gotten smaller and they have oversold tickets bad this year. The Bay Center left the hockey rink sides up which pushed everything in by about 12 feet all around the floor...the opening morning was horrible because no one working there knew what to do.we had to wait an extra hour or so to get in because of mass confusion. Please for the love of God make anyone under 18 be accompanied by an adult..watched kids destroy costumes and create havoc all weekend. This was our 7th time going and we are seriously debating going back...the website and app continuously crashed all weekend also several people scheduled to show up this year cancelled and Pensacon never informed anyone or changed the billings. It is obvious West Pensacola college should not be in charge of this anymore... complete and utter failure this year

[@hotnerd8428]

Eric astrada who was around when chips was on

[@jasonmiller5940]

Twin falls

[@Short_one41]

Does this guy Michael have a certain type of condition 🤔

[@sploofygaming5446]

Meeting Michael is a dream!

[@TampaJay]

He was awesome

[@SmoothCriminal69]

I met Aidan Fisher on Saturday & Sunday. Greatest experience of my life. I played my electric guitar a few times & people seemed to like it (especially when I played Enter Sandman) Edit: I'm not the guy who dressed up as Slash. I was planning to meet him, but never got a chance

[@bjornemccomb8262]

Don’t like this layout at all, having to wait is a bummer…BUT I agree the celebs where amazing…”Chrissy” was there from Stranger Things 🥹
