This event was really great. We sprung for VIP which is absolutely worth it. If you’re going to commit to

having a good time, a bit extra on ticket prices goes a long way. We were mere feet away from Paul van Dyke at the foot of the massive LA sports arena.

Bourke did a great job helping me put together the costume of my dreams for the event.

Lessons learned:

• People still love Nintendo
• Shoulder portion of costume made a great cup holder
• Using the restroom was awkward on many levels
