Pony Fair West - What was llama pony named?

[Stellaluna]

I'm very surprised that I haven't seen much post-event buzz about PFW. Did everyone have a good time? Were there games and fun memorable moments? I would love to hear about someone's experience there.

Also maybe I missed it but I thought they'd be naming the llama pony at the event and I'm so curious to know the outcome! I predicted that a pony from a California event might be named Gold Rush.

Snapdragon and I have been posting about the Fair on Instagram!

I haven't seen much else besides our posts the past few days; porcelain_piggy on Insta had some great pics and stories too!

It was a small event (with maybe a hundred people? I didn't count, some folks came and went throughout the day), and tbh I don't remember too many people filming. There were quite a few vendors with a ton of ponies for sale, and some fun small events like making a Shrinky Dink pony charm, competing in a puzzle race, pony bingo, and a costume contest, besides the custom pony and art contest, too! The cosplayers I saw were fantastic and it was great meeting new pony collectors/friends!

I'm not sure what the name of the Fair's pony was! Maybe Snapdragon can fill us in!

Thanks so much for sharing this with us! That does sound like a lot of fun! It seems like the event had a lot of the small-event charms that a traditional pony meet would have and I love that. I've been to bigger pony conventions in the past and while they are fun in their own ways, it's a little sad that there aren't more simple games and activities because those are a great way to form new friendships!

I don't normally use instagram but I shall have to get on there soon and check out the photos!

That's so true! I had the best time at Ponycon playing board games once.
