    One thing I noticed compared to last year was a significant uptick in the number of women in attendance. Definitely no longer 90% guys.

    Hopefully that resulted in a bit less flatulence.

    Nope, but the additional space in the convention center made it less hazardous.

    I made the mistake of going saturday night in 2013 and was overwhelmed by how crowded it felt. Then I almost fell in some vomit. I still dont ever want to go back.

    Edit, no pumpkin beer deserved a gold medal. Duh.

    Try going on Thursday. Least crowded and no beers OOS. I didn't see any vomit this year, lol. Also, larger space now.
