Moonshine and Comics at RIR

I’d like to see a super hero powered by moonshine.

Two events going on at RIR this Saturday one with a focus on booze and one with a focus on comics.

Both descriptions were grabbed from this morning’s 5 Things which you should read for the other three.

VIRGINIA MOONSHINE FESTIVAL

Cider Week rolls on? Who cares (me, a lot)! There’s the Virginia Moonshine Festival at the Ol’ Dominion Building! $20 per day gets you a mason jar that you will then fill with moonshine, beer, and wine samplings. Feeling drunk as a country skunk? There’s food pairings to make sure this ‘shine isn’t pouring into your bloodstream through your empty stomach lining like curdled milk through grandma’s leaky sieve. I have no idea how to talk about moonshine.

Saturday, November 22nd • 12:00 – 6:00 PM
Richmond International Raceway, Old Dominion Building, 602 E. Laburnum Avenue
$25 in advance, $45 at the door (must be 21 or over)

VA COMICON

Grab your spandex, make sure your leather bustier still fits, and get back over to the Richmond International Raceway for VA Comicon! It’s a cosplay spectacular with events like “Pro Wrestling Today,” “What is ‘Paranormal’?”, and “Cosplay Etiquette.” I can’t even make stuff up that’s better than that, so I won’t try! Go find your kindred spirits, nerds. We all deserve our day in the sun.

Saturday, November 22nd – Sunday, November 23rd • see site for times
Richmond International Raceway Complex, Expo Hall, 600 E. Laburnum Avenue
$20 for each day
