In a typical year, I’d be talking about how well Boskone went. Seeing as I skipped the show this year, there’s not a lot to say, but it looks like I made the right choice in taking a pass, at least from a business perspective.

One early attendance report from the organizers indicated that the in-person population was in the low three figures — a tiny fraction of the normal body count — and some friends who regularly vend at the show posted on social media that activity in the dealers room was nonexistent and they were almost certainly going to take a loss.
