In 95 I was staying at a hotel that had a D&D convention. I was with a group of union boilermakers and we got gripped at by the staff for refusing to allow some of those stinkers on the elevator with us.

I've never actually been to an anime convention and had no idea how common anime fans with poor hygiene actually existing was until I read some of the horror stories when this was posted before.

I would guess it's just related to teenagers getting body odors and not knowing yet that they have to deal with them.

Maybe, but I don't remember everyone stinking when I was a teen. Or teenagers in general stinking any more than anyone else now.
