This one doesn’t really qualify as behind the table but screw it, I’m writing it, I can put what ever I want. I could put the alphabet backwards if I wanted to… You can’t stop me.
What has quickly become one of the staples of the Comic book convention scene is the New York Comic Con. Considering that in 2006 was the first Convention it has grown in size to rival the San Diego Comic con, a Convention that has been around since 1970 and I say it’s a better con… mainly cause I’m from New York, but seriously we have the head quarters to Marvel and DC, we have the Museum of Natural History and we have Section 8 Comics (oh come on, how could I not plug my company).
What we also have is some of the best food in the world and while most people know about the street vendors and how you can get hot Dogs and pretzels but what some people may not realize is depending on the place and time you can also find street vendors selling roasted nuts, Italian sausage, piraguas (Spanish snow cones), ice cream and chicken, beef or lamb shish kabobs. One such shish kabob cart is stationed outside of the Jacob Javits center home to the New York Comic Con. It’s also the site of the following conversation during the 2009 New York con. Please note Customer 2 was dressed up as a Jedi.
Vendor: What would you like?
Customer 1: Is this Pork?
Vendor: No we have Chicken, Beef and Lamb. No pork. What would you like?
Customer 1: Is it Kosher?
Vendor: Yes it’s all Kosher. What do you want?
Customer 1: Are you sure?
Vendor: Yes all kosher, all very good. There are people behind you, what kind of Shish Kabob do you want?
Customer 1: Cause I’m Jewish and I can only eat Kosher food.
Customer 2: Order your damn food or I will shove my light saber up your ass. It’s fucking Street Meat! You’re lucky if it’s not a womp rat!
