Geek-It 2019: A new type of convention!
Your two favorite geeks covered this first-time convention based on new technologies and E-Sports while chasing our six kids around (and yet we still manage date nights many times a week once everyone is sleeping ;) )
Thanks to a great event, our geeklings not only behaved but they also had an amazing time testing new video games, playing Overwatch against the Sailor Scouts, trying out new board games, playing Nerf combat games and spotting their favorite cosplay!
Geek-It is a must-go event, located in Montreal’s Old Port; WHAT A VIEW! (and boy was the light great for pics!) Many new emerging artists were present, ranging from jewelry makers, illustrators, cosplay, costume makers and musicians!
Here are our favorite pics of the day!

Create new Super Mario levels with this brilliant fridge magnet set based on the legendary video game character. With an array of different character and icon magnets, build your own Mushroom Kingdom right in your kitchen, and give your fridge a colourful new power-up.
Super Mario Bros. Magnets features 80 magnetic characters and icons from the original game, including characters Mario and Luigi, mushrooms, turtles, flowers, coins, and more, and even level details such as brick platforms and sewer tunnels, so you can create brand new levels in the exact style of the classic originals.

A hardware-themed version of Pulp Fiction’s “Misirlou” performed on various floppy and hard disk drives by Youtuber Arganalth. This one sounds a little bad at first, but the music gets better very quickly once the main theme starts. Check it out! Now if you’ll excuse me, I haven’t watched Pulp fiction in ages, so I think I’ll go check out if it’s available on Netflix!
Walk off the Earth hooked up with the amazing Sarah Silverman for this revamp of the 1979 Buggles smash hit “Video Killed The Radio Star”.
