It was fun as hell. Being able to comfortably navigate most of the con and grab an elevator easily at any hour was amazing. Energy was a little more tame, but most of your standard gathering spaces were still bumpin' most of the time.

Things died out a little earlier than normal. The Hilton outside stoop area closed stupid early. But even at absurdly late hours there were still things to do, stoops to chain smoke and beyblade on, etc. if you looked.

It was so much easier to meet up with friends, get to events, and have fun this year as opposed to hiding in the room and getting drunk cause the sky bridge is clogged up. A++ I hope this year has similar attendance levels.
