Well, it's not only that, a lot of people are wearing costumes, that may or may not cause them to sweat far more than their normal day. A friend of mine wore a costume that involved a dress shirt and a coat, and Sept isn't really cold in GA. He used menthol to cover for his sweat though, so it wasn't too bad with him. My last costume (several years ago, I dunno where all the stuff is and can't afford to remake atm) involved dress shirt, a vest, and a heavy coat (trying to emulate this character) and it was hot as hell, especially in lines outside in the sun.
Even with baths and deodorant for some people in such situations it's not really enough.
ofc the cosplays have an effect as well, but theyre typically the minority at a convention vs those playing TCGs or Video games, who are often the majority.
the triple threat funny moment was San Jose 2016. Genesis 3 (Super smash bros tournament) took place at the same time and venue as Furcon, as well as a female volleyball tournament, all 3 generating sweat differently.
Something tells me the sweat wasn't even the worst part of the Smash Bros. tournament, knowing that community...
