What’s your favorite video game? Let us know here and you might see it later in the show.

Our Jen Tobias-Struski is taking us to the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center to get an inside look at San Japan, an anime convention with loads of fun for anime and video game lovers! V1 Tech and Blaze Manga are sponsoring the event and they are just a few of the vendors you can find there.

Jeepney Street Eats is the food truck extension of the Sari-Sari Filipino Restaurant and they bring some delicious dishes they will be serving at the San Japan event.

The San Antonio Charro Association just broke the Guinness World Record for the largest-ever piñata and we went to their Arena’s Charrería to check out how it got built.
