Because that would be weird.
I remember doing something similar. I remember going to the storage unit for No Brand Con with someone who knew the combo to the lock. We went to check in on the stuff and I ended up taking a staff tshirt from that last year’s con. I told staff that I did that so they weren’t upset. It was sort of what this comic reminds me off.
20 says there is loot in there worth enough to revive the con
I have no idea, what does the rent on a storage unit run?
Seriously dependent on where, at least in the U.S. it is. Low low end in Southern Cali is like $40 to $100 and some a month – that’s like a 5X10 “Hey look it’s a closet” unit. High end/I actually need space for some stuff” like $100-400 and some. That’d be say 10X20.
Conversely a friend of mine that lives in Kentucky is renting a 10X10 for like $40, and that’s with climate control and such – so a decent one.
YMMV
So on a yearly payment, cheap end will be around $400, while expensive side could be $5000. Either way, not likely something to be paid out of pocket until the con gets back on it’s feet.
I’ve currently got a 10′ x 10′ indoor with a/c and insurance for ~$150. Same thing outdoor with no a/c and no insurance is under $100. But I wouldn’t keep valuable convention stuff in anything other than the indoor/air conditioned/insured
