Do you love boba tea like we do? Do you love card games? Then the perfect game for you is Sabobatage.
Sabobatage is one of Kogaracon 2023’s sponsors this year. Get your boba loving friends together and get your copy of Sabobatage on https://sabobatage.com.
Sabobatage was created by Eric Chen with the help of Sophia Chang and Julie Zhan. The idea sparked during the pandemic when Eric realized he missed sharing the sweet laughter with friends through game nights. Realizing there wasn't a game to match the passion for boba, he set out to create one. Through this journey he enlisted the help of talented art illustrator -Jesus De Ubaidis, graphic designer Erika Perez, and rockstar operator Grace Cipriaso. This is the first Boba Card Game in the US, perfect for kids 7 and up, young adults, and families. The game highlights many inspirations from the unique take on Asian American roots. The team is dedicated to delivering sweet laughter and happiness to people's homes. What started as a Kickstarter having raised $148,000 is now a worldwide phenomenon. Boba Biz LLC is working to donate 1000+ games by end 2021 to non-profits, charities, and children's hospitals.
Friendships are made with Boba - Relationships are destroyed with Sabobatage.

Wayback Wednesday, remembering how conventions were smaller in community. I revist my old school grounds for chibicon. Link and Zelda reunited after defeating Ganondorf's forces. Weather starting to get nice outside. I hope our world is in peace. I'll protect everything from the dark forces. #link, #zelda, #legendofzelda, #herooftime, #nintendo, #darkforces, #triforce, #cosplayeroninstagram, #collegeconvention, #chibicon, #heroes (at Montclair State University) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_3JKX1j7gT/?igshid=atdggk52hsug

We’re happy to announce our second food vendor for our Asian Food Fest is Sam’s Fried Ice Cream. This will be Sam’s Fried Ice Cream’s first time at an anime convention! We are excited for them to be at our event this year. Please give them your support and enjoy their delicious creamy ice cream.
In 2011, Sam’s Fried Ice Cream launched their first fried ice cream business at a local street fair in Manhattan. Since then, they’ve been drawing many tourists and local residents to their stand, turning curious looks to delightful faces after they've tried our unique product.

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone! Please give some love to another new sponsor for Kogaracon 2023: Sanzo.
Sanzo - A Celebration of Asian Flavors. Our mission is to bridge cultures by connecting people to authentic flavors.
We're inspired by a multitude of watershed cultural moments: the success of several blockbuster films directed by or starring Asians and Asian-American Pacific Islanders (AAPIs), the rise of Korean pop music, and the ubiquitous influence of Asian popular culture on a global scale. Our goal was to create a beverage that represented this bridging of cultures, East and West. The 1st Asian-inspired sparkling water, Sanzo celebrates high quality Asian flavors using real fruit and no added sugars.

Throwback Thursday. First Kogaracon I've attended back in 2016. I got myself props even college campuses have smaller cons. Even though it's a very small con, that we can support schools hosting a convention for everyone. A lot of us like art, comics, anime, gaming, cosplay fandom, and celebrities. The first time going to a spring convention is being more involved of a community. #njcosplayer, #cosplayeroninstagram, #link, #legendofzelda, #Kogaracon, #comiccon, #anime, #gaming, #fandom, #njcosplayer, #herooftime, #collegeconvention, #community, #apartofme, #goodvibes, (at Rutgers University Cook/Douglass Campus) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_U_1gQDEU1/?igshid=me3yg7rx2r9o
