San Diego Comic Con 2017
San Diego Comic Con 2017, this last year I was able to experience the San Diego Comic Con with my 18 year old niece. This was her first time attending a comic con on such a large scale. Even though I, myself enjoy attending SDCC, my niece pointed out to the something that I already knew deep inside and that is how unorganized the SDCC is itself on the days it’s actually running. One of the large flaws that I noticed was the wrist band area. I volunteer in this area every year and have loved getting to help the ADA get wrist bands that need someone to stand in line for them. To me this is so rewarding getting to see their faces when they finally get to pull something but the flaw in this is that I understand that it is not fair for people to camp out all night who don’t have a disability and for the ADA to get released first but I also get that it is not fair for the ADA to get stuck in these extremely deadly crowds that could potentially cause more harm. One of my solutions for this is to let the ADA get to a safe area and have in the first 100 people in both the regular line and the ADA line get a ticket that has the time they arrive in the line. This will prevent people from getting upset that one line is getting to get in first and this will prevent people from hopefully cheating the system and causing others to get hurt because everyone is rushing around trying to get into the lines. I also this that this will help if each booth has their own ticket so that whatever line the attendee wants to get in it will grantee them their spot as long as they head straight to that line this will also minimize people from getting multiple wristbands and increase the chances for everyone else.
I won’t lie I am an organization freak and I think that the best way to improve this particular area of comic con will help everything flow smoother and make a lot more people happier. I love SDCC and every year that I go my love for it never changes. I think that the booths are getting better about getting more people through quicker. They are also getting a great variety of vendors, with comic books, artist, and of course everything else that SDCC has. This last year at SDCC17 I was only able to obtain one wrist band and that was to meet the cast of Lego Ninjago. This was such a great experience because this whole cast was extremely friendly and all love getting to meet my sidekick Miley the Comic Con Dog. I would love to get everyone’s opinion on what they thought about this last year’s SDCC? What do you think on my improvement ideas? Leave your comments blow!
