 Re: SDCC 2009
Didn't think I'd blow this one yet again  I'm going to get my day passes right now so I don't totally fuck that one up again.

 Re: SDCC 2009

 Re: SDCC 2009
I thought we'd have until mid April at least with the economy like it is.

We just wondered if this was the first year 4 day passes might not sell out with how bad the economy is. Little did I know...

 Re: SDCC 2009
We got our passes a month ago. We had a bad feeling it would sell out quickly. What we really need to do is buy the tickets for 2010 during the 2009 Con. It's the only way to be sure and the tickets are at its cheapest prices. Now hotel will be a challenge.

 Re: SDCC 2009
Many people back out of their reservation at the very last minute so you can get rooms like the week before pretty easy.

 Re: SDCC 2009
Dang, I was up in the air, SDCC or Cancun in the fall. Guess I don't really have an option anymore, I waited too long. Cancun here I come.

 Re: SDCC 2009
has it always been different prices for the individual days? i had no idea it cost nearly twice as much to go saturday as it does sunday.
are four-day passes like a crazy bargain?
ive only attended SDCC with S7, never looked at the prices before. crazy.

I recall it being the case last year, but I think they may have gone up this time around. joshuajh wrote: are four-day passes like a crazy bargain? If you anticipate going all 4 days it ain't a bad deal . . . and the preview evening is a nice bonus. joshuajh wrote: ive only attended SDCC with S7, never looked at the prices before. crazy. Attending without having to pay, it don't get no better! . . . if Alex gets grounded again this year I call dibs on his exhibitors pass!

 Re: SDCC 2009
I'm down for preview night as well...any way we can make it start a little later this time? for those of us who don't get out until a little after the con closes? I got there a lot later than I would have liked last year...and would have liked some grub.
every time I've heard people talk about the ticket prices I cringe...it's a pretty significant chunk IMO.

 Re: SDCC 2009
FYI If any teachers missed out you it should let you register as a professional and get in for free + a guest pass, as strange as that sounds. I'm not sure of the details but I was told that it should work. Going to give it a try.

You have to be working in a creative field to apply for a Pro pass.

 Re: SDCC 2009
If you don't have a hotel, they just opened hotel reservations on the Comic-Con website. Which I am sure will last for about ten minutes before that sells out.
