I haven't been able to make it to the museum yet, but really hoping to go this year when we're in San Diego. For those that have been there, what's a good amount of time to block off for this?

I kind of hate how little I've been to the SDCC Museum, but I guess I haven't been to the SD Zoo or Balboa Park much lately either.  Heck, last season was maybe the first time since I've lived in San Diego (moved July 1999) that I went to 0 Padres games so I'm either 1) slowing down as I get older 2) busy 3) broke 4) all of the above  :tongue:

I definitely need to make it a point to go to the SDCC Museum more this year

I was in the area this past September and I got a chance to see the exterior of the museum. They had the classic CCI logo banners draped along the building. It looked cool from the outside. Hoping me and my family can make time for it this July.
