Soooooooooo f*ckin' tired! As soon as I got home, had early dinner and then fell asleep for about an hour. My legs are killing me! I had fun for what I was able to do. But overall it was kind of a bust. I had a checklist of books I wanted to get. Out of all the f*ckin' vendors on the planet, I came away with one book from my list. I did pick up Campbell's Ruff Stuff Sketchbooks Volume 3 and 4. I spent most of my time also trying to hunt down the Walter White and Jesse Funko Pop Toys. EVERY Vendor was sold out. These are/were SDCC 2014 Exclusives. They actually had a few other Exclusives as well for Hannibal, Stan Lee, etc... But it was Breaking Bad that I was after.

As far as crowd control. It was HORRIBLE! Whoever decided to move around display booths from the previous 4 years should be fired. They bunched all of them dead center and didn't care to check what schedules others TV signings were going to have. When the Walking Dead came out......DEADLOCKED from all sides. You couldn't pass to get to the other side. When Game of Thrones came out....DEADLOCKED! Same problems. A lot has been side that for San Diego to retain Comic Con, we have to expand the Convention Center. But I don't think that's going to fix the problem. With any amount of added floor space, they are going to fill them up with even MORE vendors. The problem is that they are overselling the tickets with no regard for capacity.
