At least that means more rooms elsewhere for the rest of us I hope!

Maybe they booked the entire hotel to networks, big exhibitors and studios.  Or maybe SDCC booked it for their special guests.

I'll throw out my own guess. I've noticed in the many years I've entered the lottery, sometimes the list we get now isn't the same as the final list during the lottery. If you read SDCC's own words, it's a "sample" of the list. I wonder if the Pendry could be on the final form when we're filling it out?

That would be throwing a little monkeywrench in the selection process.

I actually hate when that happens. When it was speed/time based, I had to go so quickly, it'd throw a wrench in my system because I'd see a hotel or room type I wasn't prepared for. It'd always slow me down a bit.

When I was in San Diego in early March I walked past this place and it looked real fancy schmancy. Seems like a bourgeoisie place for the VIPs.

Then, too classy for me. I'm a stumble into bed fully clothed sort of person during SDCC.  One year, I think I ate Bayfront nachos in bed at least 3 times as my main meal of the day.  I'll let the vips be fancy.

I was on their website, looking at the hotel and rooms. They did look pretty fancy. Really pretty rooms and pool though.

I am so curious as to who is staying there.  I think I'll stop in for a drink to people watch and see if I can figure out who is staying there.
