The Spiel
As part of tabling we use a basic spiel to quickly tell people about SNAFU Con. It consists of four parts:
- Who -- SNAFU Con, then tell them what SNAFU stands for.
- What -- a three day convention. Depending on the audience you can say "anime convention"
- Where -- Reno-Sparks, Nevada, because people don't know what Sparks is, but saying just Reno can get you in an argument. Talk about the venue instead if you're near enough to Sparks that everyone knows where the Nugget is.
- When -- the next con's date.

The buttons are free; the fliers are also free if you can believe that...
We are SNAFU Con: Sierra Nevada Anime Fans Unite. We're a three-day anime convention in the Reno/Sparks area of Nevada, October six through eight.
We run 55 hours of continuous programming, which means we don't sleep and you don't have to. But if you are partial to sleeping we're in a hotel-casino, so you can run right up to your hotel room and right back down to the Con floor without ever leaving the building.
Our room rates are quite reasonable this year at around sixty-five dollars a night, and our badge price is currently thirty-five dollars, increasing to forty in September.
