| | '''BronyCon''' was a yearly [[convention]] held by [[bronies]], adult fans of ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic]]'', each summer from [[2011]] to [[2019]]. It was held annually at the Baltimore Convention Center in Baltimore, Maryland, beginning in [[2013]]. |

|
| [[File:cwc bronycon 2017 3.jpg|thumb]] | | Chris only began attending the conventions in [[2017]] as his interest in the children's cartoon deepened. He would continue to attend annually until ''My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic'' ended its nine-year run in 2019 (despite Chris's protests).<ref>[[June 2019 social media posts#Chris Spreads a Message from MLP Characters to Boycott the Upcoming Show]]</ref> |

|
| '''BronyCon''' is a yearly convention held by adult fans of [[My Little Pony]]. In August 2017, Chris drove all the way to Baltimore, Maryland, to visit the convention, staying for the full three days. While he was there, Chris took many pictures with some of the show's staff, as well as other fans. He also drew a new MLP/Sonichu drawing during his stay.
| | In total, Chris attended three BronyCons: |
| | | *[[BronyCon 2017]] |
| Several fellow bronies from [[4chan]]'s /mlp/ board,<ref name=mlp>http://archive.is/lHRYe</ref> Twitter, and [[Kiwi Farms]] provided photos and reports on their sightings of Chris.
| | *[[BronyCon 2018]] |
| | | *[[BronyCon 2019]] |
| Unlike the [[March 2012 Facebook Posts#Mythbusters|last event he went out-of-state to visit]] five years before, he did not bring [[Barb]] with him. One of his friends implied that she was helping Chris by promising to be on call for Barb if she needed help during the weekend.<ref>https://kiwifarms.net/threads/twitter-8-11-2017-chris-spotted-at-bronycon.33187/page-19#post-2507095 "a friend asked me to be on call for her mom while she is out of town."</ref>

| A /mlp/ user got Chris's autograph.

| | |
| {{quotebox|I don't know anything about this year's CWC drama, but I'm glad to have my own little souvenir from the Con. After the panel Chris was showing a little girl a binder of Sonichu stuff with a Sonic Rainboom in it, so I took my opportunity.<ref name=mlp></ref>}}

| The same user provided an audio clip, apparently of Chris.

| |
| Another user reported playing against Chris at poker and accidentally misgendering him, and answered a few questions:
| |
| | |
| {{quotebox|Okay. So who's this Christine? I played poker against her in the tournament and she got really, really fucking mad when I accidentally called her - him.
| |
| I never care to call someone by their shitty preferred gender, but fuck you got to give me some time to figure out what you fucking want to be called.
| |
| | |
| I met her again at the gala and shes been glaring at me. Lol.
| |
| | |
| I didn't realize she was a meme until I saw pictures. Who is she?}}
| |
| | |
| {{quoteboxred|How did he smell like? Did he joined you at poker? Did you beat him?}}
| |
| | |
| {{quotebox|Bad.
| |
| | |
| It was a paired tournament so we didn't have be a choice who we played.
| |
| | |
| And she can't play worth a shit. But she did manage to build off of idiots. She lost it all chasing though.}}
| |
| | |
| {{quoteboxred|Did he say anything else at all? Talked about his comic? Was he alone?}}
| |
| | |
| {{quotebox|Nah. Just a lot of shit about people needing to respect correct genders.}}
| |
| | |
| [[File:Bc2 mlp3.jpg|thumb|200px]] | |
| | |
| A fan complimented Chris on the Sonichu merch he had brought with him:
| |
| | |
| {{quotebox|I found Chris-Chan at a panel and gained his trust.
| |
| | |
| I asked him if his Sonichu Medallion was authentic, and he said "I am the she that used to be that he that.." and then quickly showed me the first edition of Sonichu.
| |
| | |
| He wanted to take a selfie with me, and here it is after cropping myself out.
| |
| | |
| Then he shook my hand for some reason.}}

| Day 3 pictures of Chris confirm that he wore the same ripped, stained pair of [[Chris and fashion|leggings]] for three days straight. Based on his lack of basic hygiene habits, it can be assumed that they were not washed for the entire weekend.
