Everybody else seems to be recapping TequilaCon very well, so instead, I just put this video together to show some of the swag that we got in Philadelphia. I also included a very extra-special video clip from the night of TequilaCon where we all got to see a special part of our friend Karl.
Here's the direct link if you can't see it here. And here is the link if you want to buy a "Viva El Avitable" t-shirt:
Get this custom shirt at Zazzle
And as far as any additional recap goes, I met bloggers I've wanted to meet for a long time, spent time with others that I'd met previously, got elbowed in the balls, watched Iron Man, saw the Rocky statue, ate some delicious tater tots, gave lots of one-armed hugs, spent about $2,000, and had an amazing time. I'll be there next year without a doubt!

How many times is Karl going to do this? He pulled the same gag last year!

Comments by Tori

Comments by hello haha narf
Oh this rocks, even days later. By the way for anyone who cares, Becky was at one side of crotch level and Shiny and I were at the other.
Good times,
Comments by Hilly
That was an awesome video!
You never gave me one of your buttons even though I asked.
Fucker.
Comments by NYCWD
Nice video post.
Comments by martymankins

The head was bigger than I would have guessed.

The twirling Karl did it for me. Best special effects in a motion picture!
It's true what they say — the camera does add ten inches...
Comments by Shiny
I'm *STILL* waiting for those ass pics I was promised.
Damn it all. I want some schwag.
Comments by jester
That's cool.
Comments by Amanda
Dear Adam,
I am not watching that video. EVER. I prefer to preserve my less pervy memory of Karl.
Kisses,
Poppy
PS - Hello, you have to tell him to give you a two-
handedARMED hug. I got two after crotch punching him with my words.Comments by Poppy
I swear I heard that 80's song by that Boy George look alike when Karl's head began to spin... you spin me right round baby right round like a record baby right round round round... I am laughing way too hard now. I don't know how Karl could ever top that.
Comments by Winter
Between this post and Karl's post I am sobbing laughing this morning!
Thanks for that
Comments by Penelope
OMG! I soooo hope I can make next years!!! I am going to have to have a "Send DaDuck to_________" charity drive!!! Maybe it should be a combo..."Send DaDuck and DutchBitch to ________" since we don't live that far from each other!!!!!
Comments by DaDuck
Finally a video post! Your voice soothes me...
Comments by Mr. Fabulous
What are your condoms lubricated with? Mayonnaise?
Your hair is getting REALLY thin.
Comments by Mr. Fabulous
Had I known that this was not an "invitation only" event, I so would have been there. After all, it's only a 2-hour drive from my house!
And to think I missed Karl and his penis.
Oh well, there's going to be a Tequilacon next year, right?
And you, sir, look a wee bit well, hungover to be precise.
Thanks for sharing. Karl's penis. He's totally adorable as a perv.
Comments by Mattie
Comments by Sandi
Dude. Totally Cool.
Comments by Miss Britt
You guys sure set the schwag bar awfully high!!! What the hell are we going to give/get next year that can top it?
Yes, I am DEFINITELY going next year. I already started a TC09 savings account.
Comments by SJ
That is the largest head on a penis I have ever seen!!!
Now, I am eagerly awaiting the Avitable Artwork of this event, that I am sure is in the making!! I can just see all the naked bloggers sitting around the dinner table.
Comments by Trishk
dude! that's hilarious!
also...you sound EXACTLY like Kevin Smith!
Comments by ali
Wow. I'm so sad I missed out on the fun and shenanigans, but I'm very glad I missed Karl's penis. Yeah.
Glad you had a wonderful time, hon!
Comments by Coal Miner's Granddaughter
I'm going to have to wait till I get home to watch the video, but I wanna know how I missed the actual event.
Bless you for getting it on video.
Comments by Finn
How can I get a Karl head on my crotch?
Comments by A Whole Lot of Nothing
A Whole Lot of Nothing - You might want to be careful asking questions like that.
Comments by Karl
Oh my god, it's the same movement he was doing later on that night!
Comments by Jan
I am dying laughing here after reading Karl's recap!
Becky looks like she's trying to let it talk to Jester on the phone!
Comments by Turnbaby
Had to watch it again for the umpteenth time. Hadn't noticed the phone before. Ha!
Comments by Karl
I'm glad somebody whipped out his penis while there. No party is complete without somebody whipping out the penis.
Comments by Jay
Love this video! I want an Avitable condom, man! Oh and what a tease! I thought I would really get to see penis. Pfft.
I hope I can afford to go to Tequilacon next year and hang out with you guys. Sounds like a blast! (Do people who come by themselves end up having fun too? Because I'd be coming alone).
Comments by Gina
Oh and if I come next year I will happily flash my boobs for you. ;)
Comments by Gina
Gina - TONS of people come by themselves. Not an issue whatsoever. You won't be alone for long, trust me.
Comments by Karl
Good to know. :)
Comments by Gina
no fair, man. i was waitin' to see the goods
Comments by Crys
also...is there NO other national drunken innernets get together until NEXT YEAR'S tequilacon?
Comments by Crys
So TequilaCon is open to everyone?
Comments by Trishk
COOL!

TOTALLY COOL!
Haha
Seriously - I am so sad. Wistful, even. Me, the jizz queen, and I didn't get a condom OR get to see Karl's penis!
I must go cry now.
Where's mah condom? And pin?
Oh and personally I think you look good. :)
Comments by Sybil Law
@Trishk, etc. : You don't need to be invited to TequilaCon, you just have to know it exists. Visit Jenny's blog in (approximately?) March 2009 to find out next year's details.
Comments by Poppy
CRYS! AVI'S HALLOWEEN PARTY! silly.
Comments by Poppy
Hello, my instinct is to smooch when I give two-armed hugs, so I stick with the one-armed ones.
Karl, that crown pic was priceless, too.
Neil, it's his "thing".
Tori, it is a great site.
Hello, you were letting Jester talk to his penis. Jester's good at that.
Hilly, you loved seeing scrotum.
NYCWD, you asked? I don't remember that. Was I drunk?
Marty, more like a garden snake.
Hello, I did not speed it up - the anticipation just made it seem like it took forever.
Othurme, I know!
Black Belt, oh, you know you were totally playing with yourself during the video.
Shiny, yeah, that was the best part.
Jester, I don't think there were any ass pictures, actually.
Amanda, you're cool!
Poppy, you will watch it and laugh!
Winter, I almost played Benny Hill music.
Penelope, but did you masturbate?
DaDuck, will you put out like Hilly did?
Fab, oh yeah? Well, you're old!
Mattie, there will be a TC next year, and I also have a big Halloween party, too. I wasn't hungover, since I don't drink, but I was about to drop dead from exhaustion, I think.
Sandi, :D
Britt, tubular!
SJ, next year I want iPods.
TrishK, I don't know if I'm going to have artwork of this or not.
Ali, if only I had some of his talent.
Heather, you're not glad, you're sad. Be honest.
Finn, this was after TC - you guys went back to your own hotel. Should have come with us!
Whole Lot of Nothing, well, just give him a call and I'm sure he'd be happy to oblige.
Jan, that doesn't surprise me in the slightest.
Turnbaby, she was trying to show Jester the penis even though her phone doesn't have any video capabilities.
Jay, that's how I feel. I was poised and ready if Karl hadn't done it.
Gina, you could totally come alone and still have fun.
Crystal, we'll have a private showing later. And how could you forget my Halloween party?
TrishK, yup. It's open to anyone who wants to go.
Sybil, you should have come!
Poppy, thank you for helping.
Comments by Avitable
It suddenly dawns on me why you don't give me two-armed hugs unless I "yell" at you. You don't want Dawg to break your knees. I hear that hurts.
NO SMOOCHING THE POPPY.
Comments by Poppy
I am SO glad you got that on video! We left way too early.. missed all the fun! Next year... I have to go read Karl's post again, my sides don't hurt enough from laughing between the two of you yet!
Comments by bubblewench
Oddly enough, no, not this time. I was on a schedule - had to get to work!!
Comments by Penelope
Oh and I would totally get a shirt if you had tank tops. It's too hot in Florida for t-shirts.
Comments by Trishk
Poppy, oh, now that you said it, it's going to happen!
Bubblewench, he wrote a hilarious recap, didn't he?
Penelope, work, shmwork.
TrishK, here you go: http://www.zazzle.com/viva_el_avitable_customized_shirt-235659839778496984
Comments by Avitable
LOL ok, that was pretty damn funny. Love love loved it.
Comments by yoshi
Awww....too bad I don't use condoms anymore.
Comments by Robin
I'm still kicking myself for not licking your palm. You looked HORRIFIED that I even thought of it!
Comments by metalmom
ok, so on the second plane to get here to texas for the trade show, i pull out an avitable condom and give it to my coworker to show him part of what my weekend entailed. (this is of course after i showed the hot tattooed guy your condom and suggest that he help me join the mile high club). for some reason i let coworker keep the avitaocondom. flash forward to this evening on the trade show floor...coworker is trying to pull business cards from him posket and he keeps pulling out the condom. dude wants to KILL me. and i keep laughing at him.
life is good.
even if i do desperately miss the sweet, sweet sheraton posse...
Comments by hello haha narf
I just peed a little....when the head started spinning, I lost it.
Cheers.
Comments by Stephanie
OMG! Hilarious. I know I am late to the party, but I can't watch video at work. Stupid work. It wasn't really work appropriate, either, I guess. Still. Loved it!
Comments by Shelli
Great video!!
Adam - It was great to meet you, I wish I could have spent a bit more time talking with you...there were so many I still hadn't met yet! Maybe next year!
Great Condom btw! ;)
~ZZ
Comments by Greeneyezz
Yoshi, loved Karl's penis? We all do.
Robin, you can use them for balloons.
Metalmom, it would totally have horrified me.
Hello, that is so awesome!
Stephanie, my friend James did the video magic - the spinning was genius!
Shelli, well, there wasn't any real nudity, so it was probably still appropriate for work.
ZZ, it was nice meeting you, too, both times that you introduced yourself to me. :D
Comments by Avitable
"...both times that you introduced yourself to me. :D"
Oooooooohh....Avitable has a good memory!
In my defense, I attribute that 'replay' :) to alot of Crushed Grapes.
~ZZ
Comments by Greeneyezz
ZZ, it's only because I was sober that I remember.
Comments by Avitable
Dude, there so needs to be a vodka-con. Tequila is evil to me and had I been there, a lot more than Karl's penis would have been on videotape.
Comments by Kris (Chicka Nuts)
Somehow I ended up with three Avitable condoms. I feel loved.
I had to wait to watch the video recap since I was afraid to do so at work. It was worth the wait. Now I can merge your view of Karl with my silhouetted view of Karl from later and come up with a crowned scene. cool.
