BronyCon 2019 was the final iteration of the annual convention for fans of My Little Pony. The convention took place between 1 and 4 August 2019 at the Baltimore Convention Center. Unfortunately for Chris, despite his best efforts to counter the inevitable, both his favorite animated series and his favorite convention would draw to a close in such a short timespan.
Most notably at this convention, Chris discovered Twilight Sparkle's Secret Shipfic Folder, a fan-made shipping card game. Once the convention was over, he would begin posting his own fan-made cards on Twitter – becoming the successor of his custom Pokémon cards and Yu-Gi-Oh! cards.

Sarah and Steve had originally planned to share a room with Chris,[2] but they pulled out, leaving Chris to appeal for $600 to cover costs.[1] On 14 July, some ween gave him the whole amount, and on 30 July, he confirmed on YouTube that he would go the entire four days in his General BronyCon Announcement.
Cosplay
In July, Chris teased his attire for next month's BronyCon in two tweets.[3][4] Kiwi Farms soon deciphered that Chris would be cosplaying as Kris, the female selectable protagonist of the video game Pokémon Crystal. Considering Chris's usual hack jobs when it comes to hair dye, achieving such seaweed color would not prove too much of a challenge.

What Chris was aiming for.
Day 1
In the early hours of 1 August, Chris made the journey to Baltimore, leaving at around 6:15 local time (EST) and arriving at around 10:45. The journey took Chris and Son-Chu about 4 hours and 30 minutes.

Day 2
On Day 2, Chris dusted off his old unicorn cosplay, met voice actor Andrew Libman...
All Star 3.0
That morning, a Kiwi Farms user captured some covert footage within the convention:

At first, Chris seems reluctant to join in with the singalong – perhaps, due to his previous association with the song; however, from 0:54 onwards, he can be heard singing.
"From the Matrix..." Panel
On the evening of day 2, Chris attended the From The Matrix to Silence of the Lambs: Movies in Pony Voices panel,[7] which saw YouTube voice actors reenact famous movie scenes as MLP characters:

Grand Galloping Gala
That night, Chris attended the Grand Galloping Gala concert. In summary, the concert was a blend of dancing and periodical performances by a troupe of actors/cosplayers who play the main characters of the animated series.
The above mentioned Kiwi Farms user chipped in once again:

Day 3
Pony Origins Panel
On the Saturday morning, Chris was present at the Pony Origins panel, where he came face-to-face with the true original creators, Bonnie Zacherle and Lauren Faust of the 80s cartoon and Friendship is Magic, respectively.[10] Chris went on to ask Faust about whether she had planned to include one of the 80s human characters in the most recent iteration of the show:

Chris: [Recording begins] –answer my question, beginning from G1. About like, you know, the human characters, especially Megan, and the relationship between the humans and the ponies. Umm... Did you just think about wanting to do that originally for G4 in the earlier phases, or did it just kinda like–uhh, it was rejected initially, or [unintelligible] it all, and then later figured out for like, Equestria Girls?
Lauren Faust: You know, I... umm–Early on in the development process, I had considered that Hasbro might ask me to bring in Megan, because you know, working in the animation business, I was kind of anticipating like oh [jazz hands] "girls can't relate to horses, they need to have a person to talk to and relate to. So you need to have a person in the story." So, I was expecting them to do that. They never did. Like, not even once. But, I did have a little snippet of an idea to bring Megan in for like maybe a special or something like that. It was a very brief idea that might have just been like a one shot idea. But I didn't need it, so I didn't really flesh it out [chuckles].
Chris: Ah. Well, at least it brought–at least it all brought out in Equestria Girls. [very sincere] Thank you.
Lauren Faust: Sure.
[Applause]
Meeting Nicole Oliver
Later that day, Chris went to the meet and greet of voice actress, Nichole Oliver. For $30 worth of Tugboat,[11] Chris received Oliver's autograph on one of his drawings and they posed for a photo together.
Chris would later convey as Magi-Chan that during their meeting, he reassured the voice actress that she would be bound to one voicing character for a little longer than she hoped:
| And Celestia and Luna are a long way from retiring. As @CPU_CWCSonichu has personally told @mouthnoize at BronyCon, “The Reirement is not in.”[12] |

Day 4
On the final day of the convention, Chris met an old foe, and paid another $30 to meet voice actor, Rebecca Shoichet.

Souvenirs and autographs
On 6 August, Chris posted a thread on Twitter, showing off his haul from BronyCon.[13] To say that Chris bought a lot of merchandise would be a severe understatement:
