OkamiCon Announces Second Round of Guests for 2012 Event!

19 Mar

MESQUITE, NV –  After much anticipation, Okami Promotions is proud to announce that two more special guests will be added to their growing lineup for OkamiCon 2012 on May 19th, 2012 at the Casablanca Resort and Casino in Mesquite, Nevada.

Who Asked You? Show
The five friends from the internet podcast sensation, Who Asked You?, will be coming to grace OkamiCon 2012 with their antics and comedic sense of humor. Everything from movies, comics and even beer is not safe from their own brand of funny and sound board filled with random Arnold Schwarzenegger quotes. If you like to laugh, don’t mind a dirty joke, and just want to share in general geekyness, then come down to OkamiCon and see the guys behind the microphone for yourself!

Gina Novelle aka The Okami Mommie
She is the woman with the silver hair in which we all wish we could find a wig in that color. Starting up as a female programmer in the days when computers were the size of our convention space itself, Gina is going to bring to OkamiCon 2012 her tips and tricks for expressing yourself and your inner geek. Playfully nicknamed as the Okami Mommie by her children, she will also be judging cosplays in the OkamiCon Moonlight Masque.

“We are so very excited to have these new guests.” Comments Lisa Monroe, Marketing Director and Head of Public Relations for Okami Promotions. “This year is shaping up very well and we are looking forward to making many more exciting announcements regarding our event in the near future.”
