It is legitimately a significant thing. At last year's con, I'm sure I saw at least hundreds of people doing carpet-patterned cosplay.

Also, here's a video of a recent Dragon-Con parade. The carpet cult section starts at about 24 minutes in: https://youtu.be/_ft9AEq5GuA?t=1440

(There's one Deadpool/Marriott Carpet/inflatable T-Rex cosplayer who decided to march with the preceding Deadpool group, LOL.)
