I was there last year and it was a blast! We need a Pizza Sponsor! I think we had like 300 pizza's gone in 2 hours last year.

If someone pays for me I'll go ><

How can one get tickets? and is there an age limit ?
|
Ohhhh man, so excited for this year, last time was great. I wish that I could help but most of the people that I go with are WoW fans. This year should be bigger and better than the last :D

While BlizzCon tickets have a price and go on sale later this year, this party has no entry fee and is open to the community. There is no minimum age, but you will need to be 21 or older to get and consume drinks from the hotel bar.

Lol-- it was crazy. Team Liquid sponsored the first batch of pizzas, but all of the rest was paid for by the donations of people who attended. Thanks again to everyone for their support last year. One of the reasons that we are starting planning earlier this year is to try to keep that from happening again. When you expect 400-500 and get 2000, things get fun...

I would love to help out, but getting there is a whole 'nother story ):

Yeah I'm so thankful for that first round of pizza. Was full after, I'm a little guy. And I still cannot believe that the one and only Fruitdealer showed up.
I still can't thank you guys enough for it.

Just as a heads up, Blizzcon 2010 tickets I think were $150 a pop, though if you sell the goody bag on eBay you can probably recoup most of the costs, if not all.

And... if you have extra money you can buy up to 5 per purchase, and then sell the tickets a bit later and make more than twice the cost of the ticket. Probably will do that this year

Probably will do that this year Weren't they 125$? anyways, the goody bags have gotten worse and worse every blizzcon as well as people being able to get the virtual items from buying the official live stream thing. So you can't really bank on this.

Ah I've lurked TL for a while before now and ended up making an account for this thread.
Definitely want to go to Blizzcon this year and a TL meetup would be super awesome. I guess most people from TL probably dont know me at all, but I'm pretty high up on the ladder at League of Legends and I'm really into competitive starcraft (only currently at 1400 masters though).
Well if I end up going to Blizzcon I'd definitely want to attend this event - meeting starcraft pros and people who are passionate about E-sports would be amazing. I guess I'll have to convince TakashiX that it'd be awesome to goto Blizzcon so I'll have a friend to travel with!

I buy 5-10 every year and keep 2. the rest pay for my weekend. U can sell ticks for 3-5x face value if your patient and can sell them for double instantly. Last year i sold 8 tickets paid for the hotel/food for the weekend completely.

Don'f forget Gabe Newell was there too I imagine hugging Gabe as hugging a gigantic soft teddy bear.

Oh yeah that's what I plan on doing this year, always thought about doing it, but keep hearing from people who re-sell the tickets and are able to pay for everything. And the goody bags don't have the same value that they used to have with the Direct TV thing now
Excited for this year as always :D
|
Nothing against people who re-sell tickets, but one would think that Blizzard would put into effect measures to prevent such a thing like Comic-Con.

ibsen my fine sir i will try my best to attend xD and you still owe me that drink.

Really? Wow! I missed seeing and meeting so many people, because I was running around that whole night. People kept telling me about all the actors, actresses, casters, gamers, developers, and other amazing people who were in attendance. I was busy putting down food riots, extending Fruit Dealer's "he can only stay 15 minutes" into almost two hours, and a plethora of other exciting exercises in creative problem solving.
Please forgive me if I miss listing any attendees from last year. I hope you all can make it back this year and bring lots of friends!

I'm going this year, I'm also planning to start stream this year so I could help in that section :D (if I can go of course)
|
See you guys again this year!
