- bufferoverflow 2y agoSorry, but that's some ugly carpet. Doesn't mesh with the absolutely gorgeous wood design.
- VyseofArcadia 2y agoOne of the host hotels for Dragon Con in Atlanta is the Marriott Marquis, which until several years ago had a very iconic carpet that has been since been replaced with something boring. Many people who spent many hours staring at the old carpet while in line for panels missed it very much and founded the Cult of the Carpet[0]. It has "priests" that wear robes with the pattern, you can buy bags and t-shirts with the pattern, etc. My favorite is the guy who painted his storm trooper armor with the pattern.
