{{DISPLAYTITLE:Odyssey Con}}''(Did you mean the [[Odyssey Con|New Zealand convention]]?)''

A [[convention]], also called '''OddCon''', held in Madison, WI from 2001 to 2017. It seems to have had a cow theme -- each convention had a cow-pun-related subtitle. After a major controversy in 2017 which resulted in the withdrawal of all 3 [[GoHs]] (see [[Odyssey Con 2017]] for more details), the convention went ahead that year with replacement guests, but was thereafter discontinued.
