There's a mass panic because no one knows the panel schedule. Tickets go on sale in fall and this year didnt go on sale till February. So we get hordes of incredibly desperate fans of tv shows or movie serials who buy up four day passes and really only want to go to one panel. But then since they bought the 4 day they hang out and see other panels. I notice you didn't see any of the comic book panels. As a long time fan I hope Comic con cuts back on some of the non comics stuff. Glee? Really? Cartoons and scifi shows are fine. Video games? I wouldn't have them but I'm not in charge. Glee? Give me a break. At this point comicon has got to cut the fat. It's not as if people will stop coming! Also the organization was terrible! We got there well before the exhibit hall opened and saw two different lines. We had no idea what either was for. So we walk to the Sails pavilion to find out there's one person saying (with no megaphone) the outside line is for entry. So we gave to walk back to the beginning of the line at the far end of the convection center. In addition, people waiting outside for hall 20 and many of the halls weren't allowed to sit on the floor inside the building. No reason was adequately given. Fire code? Maybe, but after waiting four hours in line in the sun outside, making people stand when they get inside is literally torture. The overcrowding inside was more than a crush. I'm sure it was downright dangerous. There were lines for everything with almost no indication of where the lines began what they were for or the anticipated wait time. So I skipped them. The artists alley is at the opposite end of the hall as the comics! What sort of pervert does that? They used to be next to each other. There werent enough tables or chairs anywhere. There was one food court area with no tables at all on the exhibition floor. If I sound upset, I am. After forty years and seeing how crowded it's become lately the organizers don't seem to have learnt anything. Other than that I had a great time meeting the artists and looking at the comics I can't afford to buy! My first San Diego con was 1981 so let me tell you some stuff.
