I bring dressy clothes every year just in case  :-X So far I've only gotten into 1 party that I donated to a kickstarter to get into and it was pretty awesome, the next morning I saw on Twitter that Matt Smith and George RR Martin were there and I totally missed them!
I do that too!!

Oh yeah I always bring a dress or two that I can wear out - even just out to dinner or a party because we have friends who throw a party every year, etc so you never know :D we're hoping for a few parties this year tho so definitely coming prepared

I dress up to go out at night because a) it's fun and 2) you never know where you might end up. :)

I dress up when I go out because I literally can't stand to go out looking like a bum.  It bugs the hell out of me for some reason.

 I am debating going to Kristian Nairns (Hodor) set at Omnia thursday night, did anyone go last year? How was it? I have listened to his stuff on Youtube and liked it just wasn't sure if it's worth $50!

While you all are out dressed up partying, I will be in my bed rubbing on the aspercream and eating ibuprofen.  Which is my tip. Party in your bed with anti-inflammatories and anagelsics.

I went to it for a brief ibuprofen is certainly the tip to live by during SDCC - along with multi-vitamins.

I like Wynonna Earp but not enough to pay $250 for a ticket to a party. I think it would be better if they just sold all the tickets for a lower price since there are under 300 spots.

Ah well, such is SDCC.

I wasn't sure what you were referring to and then I realized it was for a donation to their Indiegogo campaign, unless there is some other thing going on.  Technically, the $250 isn't just for the party, but includes other items given at lower donation levels.

I guess the real test on the pricing will be how many people pay it.

If it included a plus 1 I'd jump on it! The way it looked the other day was that 50 tickets were allocated for the Indiegogo campaign was kind cloudy on how the other 150 were gonna be given out
