Global: Announcing the Water Slide Escalators!!

Post by Faceman »

Everyone knows how little time there is at con to do everything you want to. Or need to. Like staying hydated. Or bathing.

So as a special exhibition event for 2013, Anime Boston proudly announces the Water Slide Escalators!!!

The Escalators in the Hynes Convention Center will be converted into water slides. Not only will this speed your travel time between floors, but it will give everyone a quick chance to rinse off all the con funk and otaku grime!! And while you're there, take a gulp and keep refreshed. Don't worry, the filtering system should be working for the most part.

So if you don't know what to do at Anime Boston this year, just remember to relax and go with the flow!!

Though if you do need to go up a floor, you will have to swim against current. Think like a salmon.


(Please note that Water Slide Escalators are subject to availability and maintenance.)

When I was a child we didn't have the water slides with the slippin' and the slidin'. But my brother Russell and I would open the fire hydrant and go all zip zop zobbity bop on our bi-cycles which we got from sending in box tops from JELLO PUDDING POPS.

Will the slide attendants be providing soap as well? Because that would save on suitcase space...

Also, ^Cosby Enthusiast^ you have made my day! :D
