March 22-24 this year. Who's planning to go? I'm thinking I'll be there at least the Saturday.

This means you already have a Saturday pass, right noise? They are sold out.

I purchased a Saturday pass in the fall.

However, since the baby is due early March there's only a 50/50 chance I'll be attending.

this is a joke, right?

EDIT: FUCK you aren't kidding. FUCk. Ok, so I need to decide if I'm going Friday or Sunday. Unbelievable.

Yeah man, I only have a Saturday pass.

Saturday and three-day passes sold out really quickly. I purchased my ticket Nov. 1 and I believe they were already "low" at that point.

I would love to go all three days some year - but it's tough as an out-of-stater.

I really wish there had been a heads up or something. I can't believe it's the first week of 2013 and Saturday is sold out. I didn't even give it a thought. Sigh. I *think* I'm gonna opt for Sunday so I don't have to miss a day of work. Is anyone else gonna go Sunday?

I know man, it sucks... and it's pretty crazy how quickly they sold out.

The only reason I happened to check in the fall is because I purchased someone else a pass as an XMas gift. Otherwise, I'm sure I would have missed out on Saturday myself.

Just out of curiosity, I scanned through some of my of my old emails. Apparently last year (2012) I didn't purchase a Saturday pass until 1/10/12. Now idea why it sold out so fast this year, must be gaining in popularity...

when I went in 2011, I definitely purchased my ticket a lot closer to the date than this. Ugh.

I wish they'd have the panels/guests listed before the tickets go on sale. Conventions are fun, but really take a toll on me. I need to know it'll be worth it before I make plans, and that's pretty much impossible with PAX.

Or are the events listed elsewhere and I'm not looking hard enough?

noiseredux, let's make Saturday a meetup anyway. Surely there's an arcade somewhere for the day, and plenty o' bars for the eve.
