It has been two years since Creation Entertainment brought Salute to Supernatural convention to Toronto. A city that holds special significance to Rob Benedict and many fans. Toronto has become one of the fans’ favorite cities, drawing fans from all over the world, including the US, UK, and Germany.
The cast of the show never fails to bring their A-game to us and Toronto was no exception. Richard Speight, Jr. the host for the weekend, was not there Friday, leaving Rob Benedict to take reigns as host. He did not disappoint. Things only got better when Rich returned after an overnight flight and zero sleep. Thank you, Rich, for coming to the con on no sleep and still bringing your best. Your dedication to us is not unnoticed.
Misha’s panel was fun, as usual. He always has fun during his panels and the crowd has fun with it. The other panel I had fun watching was Adam Fergus and David Hayden Jones
As usual Louden Swain brought the house down on Saturday night during Saturday Night Special (SNS). The setlist was switch-up and different than usual. US seasoned SNS attendees were nervous, as fans of the band had spent a long time planning out a special event for the lights. The crowd formed a heart in red lights. It looked beautiful from the crowd, I can imagine it was a sight to see from the stage. Nearly all the people in their seats had a light, it was a special moment.
The Creation staff, as usual, did an amazing job running the show and even kept everything fairly on schedule when things got behind. The hard work they put in did not go unnoticed or unappreciated. They have become some of my favorite parts of going to Creation cons.
Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles (J2), as always, brought the loudest screams and cheers and they seemed really happy to be there. The whole room seemed filled with love and it was a great energy to be surrounded in.
Overall this weekend was fun and packed with many great moments. The city gave us fair weather and beautiful sights to be surrounded by.
Thank you to every guest, employee, and attendee for making this one special.
