I don't see it happening at HR. There's too many parties and industry folks who use it as a base for interviews and what not. I mean, where would you even have panels?

Hard Rock, huh? Interesting... As Barb said, that place is like ground zero for parties.

Nice article , great job

I like this part the best

The “plan”, according to Levi, is to bring Nerd HQ back to Petco Park for its fourth year this summer over all four days of Comic-Con - with more crowd-pleasing panels, fan dance parties, more Smiles for Smiles photo booths with more celebrity guests, and more Signings for Smiles autograph sessions. Levi even has loftier goals, like earning $240,000 for Operation Smile this year, which would generate enough revenue for 1,000 Operation Smile surgeries.

The audio is better than my write-up, trust me - he went into a lot more detail about stuff they'd love to do for Nerd HQ and the behind-the-scenes stuff.

Great article! And I love that they will be back at Petco! So convenient, and it makes it easy to drop in.

It was a great article. Was really pleased that it was going to be at Petco Park. Didn't get to go last year, everything had sold out, but this is a new year. Really excited.

I can't seem to find the audio clip , was it moved or removed?

I remember getting Nathan Fillion's added panel tickets while waiting in a line at the adult swim booth on preview night. Then I remember getting Richard Madden tickets while sitting in the Geek and Sundry panel haha!

I didn't even know Richard Madden had a panel until after the convention.  Later on people posted pictures of him on that stage and I"m like "whaaaaaaaat?"  Oh man.  So jealous.  I was far too focused on the Hannibal panel I suppose.
