Anime Expo here I come... last modified: Friday, June 29, 2007 (12:08:53 AM) Actually went today "Day 0" to pick up my badge and badge holder at the Long Beach Convention Center since I wanted to avoid the 2 hours waits I had when I picked up those items during the usual Saturday mad lines. I even asked the lil' lady to come with me so I could take the carpool land from Orange County to Long Beach (Nope she's not going since she doesn't find the wackiness of AX as amusing as me).
Made it to LB in about an hour and saw a huge line outside, I gasped...but that line was actually for tickets for the big show events. Went downstairs and got in line for the pre-registered people and that took about 15 minutes! Hopefully the line to get into the convention is better this year at Long Beach compared to the slow grind it was last year at Anaheim. There were even kids in costumes today and the Expo doesn't even start til tomorrow. Saw a Hamburgler, Valentine dude from Final Fantasy, and some Naruto Cosplayers. Looking forward to Saturday already!
We probably walked right past each other. I saw the Hamburgler and Valentine, too. ^_^ Sadly enough, I saw them when I was heading *back* to stand in line for premier tickets. My roommate was there for four hours, but I had to take a break. The idiots started handing them out nearly an hour and a half after they were supposed to, and they only had three ticket windows open as opposed to the 50 or so volunteers working on badges. I was in line for badge pick-up when the line was super long at around 2pm, and even then it only took 30-45 minutes.
Hamburglar? That''s AWESOME! I love that guy. Do you remember his original design? McDonald''s had to quickly remove and revise his design because it was wildly offensive (antisemitic would be a massive understatement). |
