NEWS OF FANDOM The Dorsai Turn 50+ In 1973, after an incident at Torcon 2, Robert Asprin realized the need for a corps of experienced fans who could provide security, crowd control, guest escort and other services to conventions, and with knowledge of the norms and customs of fandom, could, in theory, provide these services without the hostility and conflict caused by a clash of cultures between the mundane world and the fannish. The next year, with permission from Gordon R. Dickson to use the name, Robert formed the Dorsai Irregulars. In 2023 the Dorsai Irregulars celebrated its 50th year as an organization. Since creation we have provided services to over 245 events ranging from Star Trek conventions to Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror, Furry, Media and Gaming conventions, and even the Experimental Aircraft Association air shows in Oshkosh, WI.
