I pray its atleast NEAR Virginia in the SUMMER sometime

Wow...Im the first to reply, this...this is really special for me

last year it was announced on Christmas Eve, it will be interesting to see if history repeats itself.

No matter which way you slice it, I'm soooo there!!!!

I wonder if they'll ever consider San Francisco

Fingers crossed with zero expectation for the Pacific North-West.

Alot of great venues in San Antonio!!!!

I'm really pulling for a Midwest location naturally. Since Botcon decided to start moving around, the Midwest has been screwed as far as Transcons go. We're the only region of the country without our own Con (not to slight DairyCon in the least; I'm talking about a large scale con. Besides, any Con with an exclusive named Heffer is just awesome IMHO). Would like to see Chicago, Madison, or St. Louis host one for a change. The coasts regularly get the Con...let's see some love for the Bread Basket, eh?

First-Aid, doesn't Chi-town host one of the Wizard World shows? Those are usually a big deal.

I would say the the Mid-West has had good representation there, where as the PacNorWest has none.

But seeing last year was in Cali, and likely they will go there again when the third movie is ready that it's going to be announce somewhere North East like Boston.

Here's hoping for Florida!

I'm still praying for Seattle eventually, if they do it in the summer it's beautiful and not raining usually.

Just one more reason that I can"t wait until next week. Gonna be a way better Christmas/New Years than last year!!!!!

I can't wait to find out! I'll be watching Seibertron and TFCC like a hawk this next week! It's like a roulette wheel full of possible locations for a vacation and I'm waiting to find out where the ball lands.

Come on central Pennsylvania!!!

Come one New York, id like to go to at least one botcon in my lifetime. And the only way thats gonna happen is if its in NY.

Someone, (Maybe Pete?) must hate me for some reason, they haven't had a Botcon in GA...

Prolly still pissed over the poo I smeared on his car. No, wait, that was Counterpunch's car. Hm, I wonder why not then?

As someone who lives in the far southwest corner of the US, I'm hoping that it's as close as possible to me... if not, so be it. I'm going to have to save up and try to go to BotCon '11, though, since that should be closely tied to the release of TF3.

I'd say a Northwest location would make a ton of sense, but it seems that the Pacific timezone is extremely unlikely given the Pasadena location of Botcon '09. Most likely, somewhere in the midwest.

That would be way to easy!!! Although carpooling if it is in mid-atlantic region is a must. I can fit all sorts of TF's into my wife's Chevy Equinox, and have room for you too! Plus it sounds like we can squeeze Prime Evil into the glove compartment for more space!

I'm prayin for somewhere fairly central. St Louis would be awesome. Memphis or New Orleans would totally rock my world. I just wanna spend less than 20 hours in a car to get there this time!

I have a weird feeling that it will be in Texas.

This feeling is based on nothing but a wild guess and that it has been in TX before.

What? Again? Howabout the trunk at least?

NY's another good one for me I live in VA and starting 3 years ago, we usually got to NY for my birthday...last year i had a **** birthday, only got 4 things and they were delux TFs and leader optimus...but I took him back...I guess no one cares anyway

My guess would be that it WON'T be in California, and probably not on the West coast at all. I would imagine they try to move it around more from year to year.

I'm hoping for somewhere in NYC, Philly, or anywhere in FL!! Outside of the first three there, I'd might be down for TX.

Let's try to have one in the south east for a change, m'kay?

Atlanta was good enough for the Olympics, why isn't it good enough for Botcon?

Oh wait, someone tried to bomb the Olympics there last time... hmm... okay, well then, I promise this time I won't...

I mean, I promise there won't be a bombing at Botcon if you come to the south east.
