[jasong888]

got my panel schedule mapped out. just gotta figure out when to meet up with friends lol

 

[The Josh]

I'm pumped as always but this year I feel more focused on what I want do do and my objectives. Feel as if I'm getting into the zone so to speak.

Mapping out my schedule tomorrow. Driving out at 6am Wed. I have all next week off, so I have Mon and Tue to prepare.

 

[cjf28]

whats the travel time from AZ to SD?

 

[Mesa]

About 6 hours.

 

[Phenix]

If you go the speed limit. Probably 4-5 hrs depending on how fast over the limit you go.

 

[jasong888]

oh i'll be speeding for sure on wed from sheer excitement. once i pick up my gf there's no stopping me from getting to SD. i wish i could leave earlier, but she has summer class. i have a friend who said he MIGHT be able to hook it up with a preview night badge too =(

Hey freaks! Please see my signature and help me if you can. I'll be there Saturday and Sunday.

This question made me burst into laughter!

I used to always arrive promptly at 5 AM, because the underground garage opens at that time, and there are only 2000 spaces down there! But I'm not that hardcore anymore. No car, I'm flying in and taking the trolley everywhere.

But seriously, yeah there is a line outside and it starts way early. Mostly due to the exclusives though and not so much the panels, aside from Hall H of course.

Getting excited!

I have to admit, I laughed a little too.

Aah, the beautiful untarnished mind of a first timer

I understand. Wouldn't mind seeing Walking Dead myself but not sure I'll want to wait in line long enough.

Gibby- Intersting indeed. Saw that earlier and trying to figure out if I'll go Thursday right away or not.

Yea I am a n00b when it comes to SDCC but I like to be prepared. I was assuming there had to be some sort of line but I didn't know how crazy the line got into the convention center outside of Hall H. Good to know though, thanks for the information everyone!

Being prepared is smart. Makes things much easier especially if you've never been before.

Recommendation: Pack energy bars (or Ensure), Gatorade, and 5-7 hr Power Shots in your backpack. Thank me later.

Must need that when you get old.

I'm buying a pack of 5 hour energies from Costco tomorrow, so I'll be good with energy drinks. I'll have to look into the Gatorades and other stuff while I'm there.
