Hello fellow Geeks and Geekettes,
As convention season is in full
swing now, I figure I would give you some more tip and tricks that I have use
for going to conventions. Yes, I know
that I have done some Top 10 list for convention but I wanted to give ya’ll more!
1)
Always
try and drink plenty of water before the convention, I have a bad habit
of forgetting to drink lots of water couple of days before hand and end up
dehydrated by the on the convention.
Mainly because you are so busy you forget to drink water or eat.
2)
Start packing your bag a few days before hand if
you can, that way you can think of things throughout the week to add rather
than on the ride to the convention.
3)
If you are going to cosplay I high suggest getting
a friend to be your “handler” meaning to either hold or watching your stuff so
when you are ask for photos it will be safe. Also they can help you with you cosplay needs.
4)
Check to see if your Convention has a “ Day 0” this
depend on the convention, “ Day 0” usually means you can pick up your badges and get layout on the Con.
5)
Wear comfortable clothing, having comfortable
shoe is a must! You will be walking a lot! (Extra Tip: Bring a sweater , most
of the Panels room get cold)
6)
Be ready for the weather , you never know if you
will be stand outside or not
7)
Look into the weapons Policies, each convention
have different rules about weapons.
8)
Look at the schedule and plan ahead, most
schedules are post at least 2 weeks
before the con
9)
Bring Cash, most vendors will take cards but you
don’t want to risk it.
10)
Always make sure you have enough money to
pay hotel fee Examples: Room,
Parking,
Bonus and most important! HAVE
FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
