Every September (Labor Day weekend, to be exact), something very interesting takes place in St Louis, Em-Oh. A small legion of dedicated dorks, dweebs, geeks and devotees descend on a unsuspecting Holiday Inn to attend MasterCon. Now being your basic cynics we always gave the obligatory "Hurumpf" whenever we heard the word MasterCon. "What fun could that possibly be" was often echoing in our hallways. Modelers tend to be an anti-social lot, given to huddling in the corner over our X-actos and occasionally growling at passersby. So it was with considerable reservation that we packed our camera and a sandwich or two and headed out for the rolling hills of Missouri on a sultry late summer weekend. Guess what happened? We had a blast!
