Good morning fellow Tankers.
For the first time in almost 20 years Joe Con will be in Indianapolis which means I will finally be able to attend as I do not have a travel budget to attend others in the past. I have questions for any of you veterans of previous cons out there and I'm hoping you might share your experience. 1. Due to budget constraints I had to let my club membership lapse this year. Do you have to be a club member to get in? 2. In general can you buy admission tickets in advance? 3. What is admission? I know probably varies from venue to venue, but a ball park number would be helpful. 4. I'm thinking about possibly submitting a contest entry, maybe a small or medium dio or maybe a FrankenJoe. Any suggustions for transporting contest entries? Again any suggustions that any of you out there can offer would be fantastic. Thanks all and I hope to see you at the Con!

1. You don't need a club membership to get in. However, I believe w/o a membership you are not going to be able to get the exclusives such as the boxed/bagged sets. You MAY be able to get the other exclusives IF they last until Saturday when the general admission is on. I would NOT bank on that though. General Admission also does not get you into any panels, just the showroom floor.
2. There are no pre-sales for general admission. Registeration to attend the convention and get boxed sets, panels, showroom, etc, will be coming soon (we hope). 3. I think 15-25 for general admission. 4. I not sure about this one, but I don't think you can submit if you are just a general admission. I could be wrong. |

I have a related question: how do you prove that you are a club member? I'm a member but wouldn't know what to do if asked to prove it...

TheCommander's answers are pretty spot on, I had no idea about cons so I asked for similar feedback, you can search this thread if you have other questions that aren't answered.
http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...questions.html Tankers were really awesome and answered all kinds of questions about Con that people chimed in with. |
