Review of Cardboard*Con 7: Politics! (2016)

In 2016 the Cardboard*Con Convention was transformed into an opportunity to give Cardboard Americans everywhere a voice in the world. Too long have we been marginalized, set aside, stacked, sorted, weighed, and delivered unto others who have a far greater voice than ourselves. NO MORE!! In 2016 Cardboard will have a say in the way this country is run!!!

Review of Cardboard*Con 6: Senior Prom (2015)

It’s our 6th Anniversary and my how we’ve grown!! This year we’re going to have a sexy Senior Prom, so start working up your nerve to ask that special someone to put on their best all-cardboard sci-fi/fantasy costume and join you on the (to this point entirely theoretical) dance floor. Please: no making out in the gym. BE SURE TO ORDER YOUR BADJ EARLY to avoid crowding and Bavarians.

History of the Badj

HISTORY OF THE BADJ – Our original web programmer spelled “badge” as “badj” and it has become a Cardboard*Con tradition to refer to it that way. Each year a new artist is selected by our Badj Committee to design the following year’s badj, which is revealed prior to the convention.
