Glompers are irritating. At Anime Evolution there was a Glomp Game, it was banned on convention grounds (the convention centre a little up Vancouver's waterfront from the Pan Pacific hotel and that other 'sailing boat' convention centre) so they held it outside on the waterfront blocking both the bicycle path and pedestrians.
I've heard of worse at anime cons. Cosfu.net (standing for Cosplay F***s) was set up after the creator and her sister were asked to make out by a creepy older man at an anime convention. When they told him "we're sisters!" he offered them money...
Another poster on the same Cosfu thread said he was in costume as L from Death Note when two thirteen year old girls ran up to him, grabbed him in the groin area and then ran off giggling. He was 19 and was horrified.

Also, it's ten o'clock at night. A two year old has no business being at the evening entertainment of a convention particularly if it's screaming in a fashion that suggests it doesn't want to be there. And shame on the parents for inflicting it on the rest of us, I could hear it from the other side of the room. This was a few weeks back at a small con in London and I wasn't the only one who was annoyed by it.
In regards to Creation Vancouver one year, there was a stroller blocking the aisle. There was no kid in it most of the time yet folding it and stowing it out of the way was obviously too much of an effort for the parents.
