FanEXPO '10 'Rant'

This is just me sort of babbling on about FanEXPO 2010. I kind of needed to talk to an inanimate object about what I'd witnessed. Feel free to comment about your experience and opinion about what happened.

Saturday was my first con :P

I was in the Halo Reach Noble Six helmet :)

There was a way to get back into the expo, just where you get your tickets lol no lines or anything!

[HyperAnimeFangirl]

@spartan5566 Really? Because they were supposed ot be regulating people because they had reached capacity.

[TRtheCrazyOne]

Ahaha...ohhhh, you told me alllll about this today. XD

[HyperAnimeFangirl]

@TRtheCrazyOne That I did xD

[lincman666]

they need to move the venue to the ex on lake shore its the only place that can handle that large a crowd

[Neville6000]

All I can say is...come to Polaris and Anime North! They care about the fans!

Polaris (tcon [dot]ca)

Anime North (animenorth[dot]ca)

And also prioritize people who already bought tickets, and let them in first.

I was about to leave the building in order to grab some lunch...I'm glad I didn't, because I had NO idea they stopped letting people in...I also didn't know about the mob of people trying to get in...and how they were basically playing crowd control...I missed Brad Swalie on Saturday because of that.

They need to do one of the following:

Open up the ENTIRE convention centre, and make use of both the north and south buildings...

Wow, I *almost* went on a Saturday but didn't since JYB would be Sunday-only. Good thing I didn't... *PHEW*

I only heard Saturday was very "chaotic" but didn't know it was like *this*. Must REALLY suck since Saturday is more expensive too, so essentially a lot of Saturday-only people paid so much money just to stand in line for the whole day. My friend said it should be called "LineExpo" heh.

Great video, very informative and gave me an idea of what it was *really* like. =)

Yeah I went on Sunday and bought a Star Trek Uhura (in her 'Mirror Mirror ' costume) action figure for 12 dollars.

That Really sucks what happened on Saturday though. The way it was organized was completely professional.

@HyperAnimeFangirl i ment the top floor it was ok i got to do what i wanted

[HyperAnimeFangirl]

@xXNHMXx The third floor being the lowest one, yes? That's probably why, I assume it wouldn't be so busy down there and you wouldn't be aware of what was going on at street level and on the top floor.
