E3′s Missed Connections Range from Romantic to Creepy
By Benjamin Opal
Do you know what E3′s booth babes do after the show is over? They cash their checks and go home. I’m pretty sure they don’t crawl the “missed connections” section of Craigslist to find that sweaty dude in the Kirby shirt who put his hands all over her. But here’s 40-Year-Old Dude on Craigslist who thinks he has a shot:
“Capcom 1942 booth babe – the one wearing suntan pantyhose with her costume. I want to get your number. I would love to take you out and get to know you. Please contact me here.”
This one’s more amusing, of a girl apparently looking for love from a Killzone 3 Hellghast (one of these guys, I suppose):
Send me a message and I’ll respond with all the dirty little things I was thinking about doing to you.. all of the dirty things I could be doing to you today, at the last day of the convention before the costume is gone. That is, if it’s gone. You keep it and I’ll meet you. Anywhere. Anytime.
And this one’s actually sincere, it seems:
We exchanged glances several times while you were playing Star Wars at E3 on Thursday. We spoke briefly on your way out and you had the softest hands I’ve ever felt. You came back after you left and asked me for my email address and said you wouldn’t forget. I hope you didn’t.
Apparently love can bloom anywhere, even a grimy convention center. Here’s hoping that last one pans out better than any other Craigslist solicitation we’ve read about. [Craigslist via Twitter]
