If "free" ice cream is what you want, there's a Karma's World(thanks samturtledove) ice cream truck by the Krapopolis offsite by the Children's Museum.  Well at least it was there on Thursday.  Not quite free since you have to scan a QR code but such is the case with a lot of swag these days.

That's it!  They are also giving away wristbands.  No QR code scan needed for that.

Great review of the offsite options this year.  These are becoming the main attraction for attendees like myself that have grown a little weary of the Hall H and Exhibit hall grinds over the years.

I personally did the following:
Severance
House of the Dragon
D&D
Moobys

Severance was an A+.  I love the show and this offsite exceeded my expectations.
HOTD was a solid B.  The standard queue line took forever and they opened too late in the day.  Once in, the experience was nice and well done. 
D&D was an A.  Easy reservations.  Short wait to get in.  Lots of people able to particpate.  Great experience.  A solid blueprint of how to do an offsite from start to finish.
Moobys was an F.  Overpriced, average food.  No experience - just some posters and banners for Clerks.  A total miss.  And I'm a big Kevin Smith fan, but this was a big bust for me.

A small correction on this, Abbott Elementary's offsite was a replica school with photo ops and a step squad performance at the end (with water bottle and gym bag as swag). The carnival games were a different offsite directly next to it in the Disney Bundleworks offsite.

Thank you for letting me know! I will make that correction.

They have always been my main attraction.  I've met people who only come to town to do the offsites.  They have never even tried to get comic-con tickets.

Normally the only time I'm in the convention center is to work a volunteer shift.  I've been asked why I even do it since I really don't take advantage of the free ticket for the day.  I tell them my comic-con experience is volunteering.
