Our Adventurers are on the road! After leaving Meltdown Comics in Los Angeles yesterday, they’ve travelled through Barstow, Las Vegas and camped in Utah. After traveling through a Mines of Moria-esque tunnel, they are now at the Denny’s in Page, Arizona.
Justin, Doug and Ryan are fueling up to continue the adventure today – with plans to visit Monument Valley, Mexican Hat and other amazing locations. You can follow their progress along the way on our 24/7 LIVE Event page. [Route]

‘Tis pledge season here at TheOneRing.net! You may have noticed the new ‘banner’ at the top of the homepage, letting you know about our fundraising drive. Often at conventions, staffers get asked about how great it must be, being paid to attend conventions, organize line parties, go to film screenings, etc. While those events are of course all fabulous, no one at TORn is ever paid a penny. Everyone gives their time 100% volunteer, and in the past, whenever TORn has made any extra money, it’s been given away to charity. We’re all about good times, good causes and good people.
