So today while out and about, picking up somethings I wanted (headphones, Assassin's Creed II - Revelations, etc), we drive by two people dressed up in costume. I took notice of them in my peripherals then brushed it off. Then I did possibly the fastest double take in my entire life. Sure enough, I had in fact seen America and Italy just strolling down the sidewalk holding shopping bags. Normally I wouldn't be this confused, but I had no knowledge of a convention anywhere near me, therefore leaving me both amused and confused.
