Talk about an amazing event! I can’t believe how much fun was had last night and how much joy I personally had as a Pandaren roleplayer seeing so many people come out for the festival. A big shout out to all the vendors and performers this year, you all were amazing!

Yeah, this was lots of fun! Fireworks were all-pro and amazing. In fact, they were so good, they must have been imported from Flashbang Exports pyrotechnics division. Each charge lovingly filled with boomtastic goodness. Hehehe

(kidding, of course. We had nothing to do with the fireworks show, or the event. Goblins, we’ll take credit for anything to make a coppah).

Thanks for hosting, Mailang!

And a special shoutout to the mook from Blackwater. The creepster in the white dress wearing the serial killer mask. You made Eddy’s night. Shame the text was rolling so fast on the lantern walk, or the insults could have gotten REALLY good. Hehehe All in the name of balance and harmony, of course. :wink:
