AggieCon XV

AggieCon XV was held March 29-April 1, with L. Sprague and Catherine Crook de Camp as GoH’s, James Hogan as Special Guest, and Don Maitz as Artist GoH. A Geo. Proctor roast was held. This was the first AggieCon to have a sock hop; it also featured a SF trivial pursuit game. This was the AggieCon where the studio showed “Buckaroo Banzai” before its general theatrical release, as part of a national publicity campaign for the film. The dead dog party was held at the Monkey House. Maryanne was unexpectedly asked to drive James Hogan to the Houston airport, which made for an interesting trip, since she had not read any of his books.
