Sad, but understood.

"Due to the unfortunate events that have transpired here in Boston, a lock down has been put into effect until further notice causing the Hynes Convention Center to suspend all events. As such, The Boston Comic Con will be rescheduled to a date in the not too distant future. All people who purchased advanced tickets on line will have their tickets honored at the rescheduled show. If for some reason, you can not come to the show on that date, we will refund your ticket.

 

Please, we ask for your patience, understanding, and cooperation. We appreciate your loyalty, and continued support for the Boston Comic Con. Unfortunately, this situation is beyond our control."

Bummer. Oddly enough I was going to a Bruins game tonight which has been rescheduled for tomorrow afternoon.

Seems like a wise, well thought out, tough choice to make. In as much as they had any say in the matter anyway.

Larry is attempting to schedule an impromptu convention tomorrow in Lowell. Maybe some local guys can get together and salvage the weekend.

Looks like CGC made a wise move after all

We've been in a holding pattern all day, couldn't access load in due to current lockdown. Sorry to hear it got postponed, look forward to a spectacular rescheduled show!

Let's get some of the artists already in town up to Larry's for the weekend con he is trying to put together.

[Ryan.]

Agreed.

Red Sox game got cancelled as well.

The Sox game and the Bruins games are PPD tonight as was the con. I'm pissed, but as someone who works in Watertown and lives in MA I understand why. I was all set and ready to go, but not only is the MBTA (transit system in Boston) out but for those who don't know the main entrance is on Boylston St where the bombings happened. They had scheduled the main entrance this year to be thru the Pru center but it was going to make things difficult for people.

 

I'm holding out hope that when it happens for real it'll be the best con this city has ever seen - as this is the best con in 400 miles.

 

GO BOSTON!

Put the news back on - possible second suspect found in boat after gun shots fired in Watertown.

[g-man]

Lets hope so

[AmazingComics413]

Well, maybe I can make it now that the con will be rescheduled....I live in Western MA and have to work all weekend

[g-man]

WBZ says it's suspect #2

[Ryan.]

They got him

Suspect refuses to leave boat, but surrounded.
