-By Mallery Dunn, KRPX Morning Show Host:

There are a lot of people that ask me why I go to FanX every year… The answer has always been to have a great time with my family, make another year of memories, and share stories with you on air!

Fan X has always been a gathering point for fans of comics and science fiction. An event where like-minded individuals gather to share their appreciation and celebrate favorite characters and genres. In these divided times in this Country, FanX provides a celebration that leaves all of the social constraints behind.

My family’s favorite thing to do is meet celebrities from our favorite films, and television programs. The experience has been positive and has given me stories to tell for a lifetime. There are many of us out there who like to people-watch (don’t deny it, you do too).

There is nothing like FanX when you want to people-watch for all the right reasons. The fans who put so much attention and detail into their cosplay costumes create an appreciation for an event you would only see at Fan X! “Cosplayers” are friendly, and are always ready to take a photo with fans.

Everyone should experience Salt Lake’s FanX at least once in their lifetime. You’ll never forget it, and have plenty of stories to tell. Do not miss out on this year’s FanX event, taking place September 21-23  at the Salt Palace Convention Center.
