Comic Con costumers were the featured news item on the Road Runner Webmail page, under the title of "Babes, Geeks Come Together: Stars Come Out for Comic-Con...Bizarre Fans Appear, Too." Which was a photo gallery of the most attractive celebrity women there, and the most attractive women obviously paid to be there, i.e. booth babes and the dancers at the Marvel vs Capcom party, coupled with pictures of what have to be the worst costumes a Comic-Con.
I know for a fact that, much like Dragon*con, most costumers go all out for SDCC, and there are only a few instances of your high school anime con level costumes, so they most have been intentionally looking for bad costumes in order to keep up the "geek" stereotype. Which in retrospect this post might have deserved to be in the what makes you rage today thread, but, eh. The "article title" just bugs me too.
