Intermission Comic #9!

Is it called Comic Con? It should be called "Line Con"!

With some 150,000 people milling around in the same general place for 5 days, there are bound to be some... "traffic" issues. Aside from the infamous Twilight panel line that already started before we set up our table, there were lines everywhere for everything from restaurants, hotel check-ins, badge pick-up, for con exclusives, bathrooms, and yes, even elevators.

Behind the table, you don't notice it so much... until you have to go hunting for food mid-way thru the day. o_o;

What's the longest line you've (willingly) stood in? Aside from a 2 hour wait at Disneyland when they just opened the Indiana Jones ride, my longest line wait was probably Comic Con 2003 as an attendee. The line wrapped around the building to what I believe was the Marina... because I remember looking into windows of a bayfront restaurant. D: Yikes.

Other long lines? Probably to get the first iPhone with Scott. XD;
