2014 August 08 • Friday

San Diego Comic-con, Friday, July 25, 2014: Lord Business was there.

I was admiring this vintage Smog Monster vinyl and somebody pointed out to me that you could see Godzilla reflected in its eyes.

I went to a panel but found it boring and left quickly. Lunch time! My feet didn't feel like doing much walking, so I took a taxi to Tiger! Tiger!, another favorite place. (After that I took the number 2 bus to get between North Park and downtown.)

I was hoping for the same amazing BLT I'd had last time, but I had to make do with garlic soup, roasted padron peppers and a pork belly banh mi with chicken liver pate.

Then I took a bus downtown, saw Lucy and enjoyed it, tried and failed to get into the Archer panel, checked out the exhibition hall and said goodbye to the convention. (Saturday is too crowded for my taste. Thursday and Friday seem to be enough for me, anyway.)

But it's not goodbye to San Diego just yet! I stopped in Modern Times Brewing's tasting room, one of the most nicely designed interiors I can remember seeing.

Then it was back to the hotel. I noticed a few of these Bart Club things around town.

Early the next morning I tagged the Stone Brewing spot in the San Diego Airport but, honestly, I'd had enough beer to last me for a long time by then.

See you in 2015!
