I vant your blood!

From Ign.com:

Typically, "Have a pint" signifies an offer of beer. However, last weekend in San Diego is was more often associated with the annual Robert A Heinlein Blood Drive. The previous record of 372 pints of donated blood was shattered at this year's Con with the new mark set at 596 pints. The sudden rise in generosity can be largely attributed to Diamond Select Toys' offer of 500 limited edition Spike action figures. The toy, featuring an unpainted Spike from Season 5 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, was offered up to the first 500 donors. When workers arrived Friday morning, they found 110 anxious donors already in line. "We are thrilled at the response that we got from our fans!" said Chuck Terceira, Director of Diamond Select Toys. "The bottom line is that Diamond Select helped Comic-Con put on a successful blood drive, and thanks to Buffy fans it was record-breaking!"

Vampires. So many willing to give blood for vampires.
