San Diego Comic Con starts this week!! While thousands and thousands of people get ready to make the epic journey to San Diego, many are searching for tips on what to bring and what to expect. Don’t forget to study up on things you DON’T want to do and places you want to avoid. My list, “Places You Don’t Want to Be at SDCC,” can be found at MTV Geek, but here is what the peeps on twitter have to say about the last place they’d want to be at SDCC.

I equate the floor at ComicCon with getting stuck in the crowded street at Texas/OU weekend in the West End.
That said, I’ll be sitting on an air conditioned deck with a view sipping on ‘ritas and checking out highlights from everyone that went. I expect I’ll have just as much fun 😉
