San Francisco Supernatural Convention

Soooo, should I go? I've never been to a convention, and I really really want to and this one is easy to get to for me.

What's stopping me, you might ask? To be honest the main thing is that I don't want to go alone.
No one I know in real life that likes Supernatural, likes it as much as I do and I don't want to drag someone along with me that won't get into it like I plan on doing .

So I'm wondering if there is anyone on my f-list going to this con in January who might want to hang out?  It sounds so lame, but I'm just putting it out there just in case!

And, for those con veterans, which do you find is better as far as seat choice goes? Closer to the front but on one of the sides, or in the middle several rows back?

Thanks for any and all advice and/or encouragement or introductions to fans that are open to hanging out with a virtual (but nice) stranger.
