I just got a ticket about an hour ago! Email was from [email protected] and the subject line was: A space is now available for Funko Fundays 2018!

I about had a heart attack!!!
Good Luck!
Congrats! Look forward to seeing you there

Congrats to those getting off the waitlist. I'm pretty sure I have no shot, it seemed to take 3-5 minutes for the waitlist option to display for me.

Having never been to this event, is it as rabid as articles and commenters suggest? 
Fun isn’t something one considers when preparing for Comic-Con, but attending does put a smile on my face

I went in 2016 and it was MUCH calmer than previous years! Still very hight energy and a TON of FUN, Instead of tossing items into the crowd they were handed out at tables so no more fighting for giveaways!

Agree with superkatchick. Event is safe and fun and full of energy. No throwing prizes into the crowd fixed the fighting.  Biggest pitfall is being exhausted on Saturday lol

last time i went was in 2015 and it was super fun but super rowdy.  as someone mentioned they threw stuff into the crowds and people were standing on chairs and even tables.  one of my friends got hit in the head with a pop and got so upset he left early.

I guess you could say he got "Pop"-ed" in the head.

Sorry, I had to.

I was there that year and it was nuts. Fortunately, Funko has learned and now the giveaways are more orderly!

I agree, last year was pretty orderly. Last year was my first year attending, but I had heard stories of how chaotic it was a few years ago. I will say, it's still a good idea to keep an eye on your stuff while there. Even last year there were some people who had their stuff stolen from their table. I kept my "box of fun" in a bag in front of me the entire team to ensure sticky fingers didn't get near it.

What others said - 2015 was the last rowdy year (it was also the year I had the most fun though LOL, but I was in the very back and did not witness any of the broken limbs, so 100% understand why they changed it). Still, I miss chair dancing!
