I took my step daughter to a My Little Pony con (Trot-con) about 10 years ago. I’d never been to a con before other than GenCon way back in the day so I was a little surprised as well as pleased when the people running the con gave a little welcome speech including the announcement that attendees needed to shower regularly and that “Con-Funk” would not be tolerated.
To be honest, I was relatively young in my GenCon days. I hope I wasn’t one of the ones who reeked.
The 6-2-1 guide for all conventions: 6 hours of sleep every night, 2 meals each day, 1 shower each day. It’s a vacation for a lot of people sure but that doesn’t excuse bad manners and not taking care of oneself.

I went to an anime con back in like 2004 or so, there were flyers handed out that talked about hygiene.
There were also placards and signs about not touching people without permission. (Focusing on women and girls in costumes)
The early-mid 2000s were a wild time at anime conventions. Glomping, the yaoi paddle, pornography just sort of everywhere…
I’m not really into R&B … but what did that band do to them?
Con-Funk is what a prison band plays.
