SDCC 2011

I guess it will be all apart of the experience. I am waiting until after I get a hotel to book my flight, just to be safe. Cause if I can't get a hotel, then what is the point of going?

There will be two of us trying for a hotel so hopefully that will better our odds.

Well, I'd get the flight. You can always shack up with someone and lower everyones cost.

So you either stay far away or you book a hotel now that is twice or triple the price?

Well, if you're quick enough you can still get one close. Otherwise yeah take what you can get anyway you can.

I refuse to stay far away. Always find a place within 1-4 blocks from the Con and in the Gaslam district. I pay a lot more, but it's worth it to me to fork over the $$ to ensure closeness to all that's happening after-Con and not have to hassle with transportation issues late at night when I'm bone tired.

I'm going to try my best to make it to CC 2012. Just to be on the safe side if the world does come to an end.

I think you'll be okay. Supposedly the Next Star Wars Celebration isn't until 2013 and i refuse to die before i go to one.

Amen to that. I don't know why people just dont book at a 3star or less hotel while they are available now.

There aren't many close to the convention center. I find it best to be staying very close, so that you can make trips back to your room to drop off swag and anything you have purchased quickly. Also at the end of the day , when you're dead tired, you don't have far to go or long to wait to get back to your room. I think that the farthest I will ever stay would be the Embassy Suites.

just gotta work on that endurance. i stayed in gaslamp last year with my girlfriend, but this year we'll be staying in little italy area. a bit farther away, but it just gets too crowded to explore the city (driving) since we had never been in san diego downtown area before. i figure between all the shuttles, trams, buses, etc. transportation won't be too hard and if it saves me hundreds of dollars doing so that i can spend on other things, then that's a sacrifice i'm willing to make.

 

[Phenix]

Well after being awake since 3 am, and standing in lines and walking around until 6 or 7 pm, my endurance is usually all gone. I guess that's what happens when you have a desk job.

When I'm there, I'm only there for the con. I don't really care to explore SD. I'll walk around gaslamp looking for a restaurant, pursuing one of those con scavenger hunts, or going to a party. With all that going on I really have no time to explore if I wanted to.

If I were there on a normal vacation, then sure I'd probably explore. But there is just so much to do at the con and that's all I do.

..."banging hot girlfriends" dont belong at the con this event is carefree and Im saying no girlfriends or wives or that kind of stuff. Im hunting for Cougars

haha well there are the pros and cons about her going, but i'd say there were more good than bad

pros:
sex
she made all the food and kept the alcohol stocked
sex
free drinks/cover at all the bars we went to
sex
better chances of drawing a "winning" ticket in those wack @ss ticket drawings
took turns standing in lines
...did i mention lots of sex?

Cons:
had to do a little bit of tourist-y stuff like go to the beaches, restaurants, shopping, etc
had to go with her to the panels she wanted to see
couldn't weave thru the exhibit hall aisles as easily
had to buy an extra 4day pass

so you guys may say "Nay" to bringing the ladies, but i'm all for it...unless she dragged me to those twilight/vampire bs, then we'd have some issues
