If you are one of the many people that are dying to hit this year's convention but you were too late in buying tickets to the big sold-out event, then it looks like you're in luck! I've had a few users send me messages voicing their sentiments about wanting to go, and most have not been very lucky. Curiosity got the better of me, and I figured why not look around the net for tickets? I mean, I can remember there being scalpers for the Nsync concerts I used to go to when I was a teenager,...that's how I got tickets in the first place! Sure enough, there are a ton of listings for the convention this year on Craigslist. The reason? Only a certain number of tickets are sold per day, so many times people that do not plan on attending the convention the entire day will give away their passes to some people for very little money. Here's the catch: I really don't recommend engaging in meeting up with random strangers without parental permission and supervision, but that's just common sense.
Okay so I know a lot of you aren't going, but that's okay! There are plenty of after party events that you can go to and meet a lot of creator's and celebrities that will be at the convention, including the one that will be hosted by Comic Vine (details to come)! So it's almost like going to the convention, only later at night and without the cool panels.
If you are already planning on attending...
If you aren't going this year, I really hope that you guys get to see all the interviews and video footage that the Comic Vine staff brings home. We are going out in full force this year and are really looking forward to bringing you the best all around Convention coverage possible. I personally cannot wait, and if you are in the San Diego area, be sure to shoot us a message and we will meet up!
See you there!
