I actually looked through all 183 pictures. eek
Seems a lot of girls went as Wonder Woman, with Harley Quinn in second place. 3nodding



The news said the event expects over 40,000 people. If all 40k just buy a 1-day ticket at the door, that's $1.2 million in ticket sales alone! The event can probably plan on about double that number, though, for all the people there multiple days.


My friend has been there today and she posted on Facebook that it was really really crowded.
ugh it was the worst I ever seen it...not even knowing if I want to go again in future years. We got there early and didn't even get to do much of anything. blarg..

I tried getting there earlier...but I was stuck in traffic for over an hour just on the street the convention center is on. burning_eyes emotion_facepalm

Some guy at the con was mentioning how in past cons you would know a lot of the people there...but now there's so many people that you barely know anyone there anymore.

Ugh. I had so many problems and things going on. I feel bad I missed meeting up with some of you guys. I did see Rob but for a very short time. The timing of everything was overall bad. x_x I was dragged into a contest by a friend that took two hours (which I didn't know it was going to be that long) but it was the one thing she really wanted to do at the convention. Also, between all the traffic problems and the horrendous hotel problems I had I was actually very stressed out the entire weekend and had trouble making plans with anyone. Not to mention the spotty phone reception.

Remember when I said they wouldn't let anyone up to the 3rd floor without a bracelet? I ended up going around to the other staircase and there was no security guard there. I just walked up the stairs. lol ninja

feel such a fool buying a bracelet, it was probably easy to go into the dealer room without one cause of the crwods >>

I saw some video the other day of someone sneaking into Comic Con. I guess security is tighter there, but he slipped through doors and dealers room while the guards were distracted. It was very ninja like. ninja

Did you got to the Rave? The line into that small room was crazy. People must've reaked of con funk in there.

No, I was all over the place and never got tickets. Vicki said they were in limited supply in the afternoon, so I figured they were all sold out and I didn't bother.

I got into the rave. But I managed to be one of the first people in line for the rave wrist bands. It actually wasn't bad. It didn't smell and the room was actually pretty big for the amount of people in there. People were pretty spaced apart for the most part. But I waited like thirty minutes to an hour or so after the rave started to go in there because I knew the line would be ridiculous and it would probably be really packed at first.
