I went to the Star Trek Convention last week - it was my first time there and I had a blast. Overall a great experience and it's safe to say I have some new friends that I'm looking forward to seeing again next year. At the same time, I found all of the cash-only photos and signatures with the actors to be pretty sad/disappointing in a lot of ways.

I wrote an article about my experience, curious to hear what people think about it.

I haven’t been to a Star Trek event but having the handlers act abrasive would certainly irritate me as well and it doesn’t matter if I was paying for a photo op or getting it free. I imagine it’s probably a local security group they are contracting so the staff are probably more used to being bar bouncers but someone should give them a speech on the proper way to engage during these types of events.
