    Those who have posted about parking, thanks a ton.

    Does anyone know anything about parking with a trailer? And where dealers can unload?

    As of right now, there's a limit of one per person. So unless you can find someone that doesn't want one for themselves, you may be s.o.l.

    Heading out tomorrow morning (5:30ish)! Does anybody know what the restrictions are, if any, for what the voice actors can autograph? I have a Beast Wars box set that I want David and Venus to sign. See you all tomorrow (I will be wearing a Galvatron shirt on Saturday).

    Update - their credit card payment system relies on an AT&T system that has been discontinued in this area. Don't worry though, a replacement system will be here on Saturday!

    So I'm debating about doing kind of a last minute trip, I'd get there friday night and probably leave either saturday night or sunday afternoon. Does anyone have any extra space they'd want to help a brother out with? HOtel, bunk bed or what not?

    Do Gregg Berger and Venus Terzo have things at their table to sign? Or do I need to come to them with stuff in hand already?

    I do not know about what Venus has on her table to sign but there is a print that has Greg's G1 characters. It is very limited in number and it would be at BDixonarts' table in the artist alley.

    Wow that is a bummer. This is one of those huge hiccups that will cause massive delays. Maybe a paypal card reader could be used? A lot of vendors use those nowadays.

    If anyone decides to come up here be sure to pack for cold weather. I had my a/c in in Georgia wednesday so i assumed it would be comparable. Did not pack appropriately. Had to go shopping for warmer clothes when I got up here.
