As some of you may have noticed, I have a certain taste for… alternative culture. As such, I have more than a couple alternative friends who invite me to alternative events like Oddmall: Emporium of the Weird. It’s basically one giant event for dealers selling things like comics, postage stamp jewelery, duct tape bags with Pokemon designs, monocles, artificial severed limbs, sci-fi sculptures, wooden robots, and countless other things that you didn’t know existed, but now want to purchase for your home.

So, did you see those terrifying baby face sculptures up in the collage block? Well, Ari saw that booth too, and insisted on buying one. Not only that, but she couldn’t leave the Off The Wagon booth to go grab one, so I had to go get it for her. That’s right, I enables this:

We had a blast! My boys, including the kid with the fake arm in stroller, loved it!
What a fun post! Love your pictures of scary baby…as a vendor I was not able to see most this… but the costumes were great and I had good time.
Andy and Heather did a fantastic job on this show. I had a great time vending and talking with people, the day just flew by. Thanks for including picture of my robots, you’re awesome 🙂
OddMall was a blast. As a member of the Star Wars Costuming Groups (501st and Mandalorian Mercs), we were glad to come out and enjoy the day with everyone. What an amazing event to have in Akron!
