Not as awesome as the 501st's space, but I'm not going to pick an argument with 300 Stormtroopers.




If you need help w/ the table or whatever, count me in.

We ain't scared of no stormtroopers. One browncoat can whip ten 'troopers.

I should be at the hotel by 2pm so that we can get everything squared away and stuff. D*C site says that the badges will be available at 4pm in the ballroom of the Hyatt this year. That is good for us because that is basically the International tower.

Well, that's good.

And I'm not entirely ruling out the aquarium, either. It may become a possibility. I would like to see the pretty fishies.

Shiny! Picking them up from the Hilton last year sucked.

FYI - You will need reservations to go to the Aquarium - they are still doing timed entry to control the crowds. It's really incredible and worth the effort. If you are into art - the newly expanded High Museum is also a good place to visit while you're here.

Yep, I know. Thanks for makin' sure though You can never have too many people watching your back.

And I love the High. I haven't been since the expansion, but it's on the list. Luckily I live close enough to day trip down. One of these days, I'm going to have to do another culture fest. Day at the High followed by an evening at the Alliance.

That's so sweet! Thanks!

We'll need lots of help with the table again. When we get closer to the con I'll put out the official call for table volunteers.

And the 501st can have the bottom of the escalator (I'm not sure I've ever written that word before) We have so many people, we'd block it and that wouldn't be fun. How's that for enthusiam?

101 days...

Heck, if we run around enough, they won't be able to see us through those masks, anyway.
Run, fight, hide...the Browncoat way! (stolen and altered from Braveheart)

"White-bellies"? Add them to the bad-guy list?

Hmm....

Holding until you get back, Captain.

Just now noticed your SE Browncoat link. I've known so many people who've been disappointed when they couldn't get in to the Aquarium b/c they didn't have an advance ticket. The Alliance is great and I don't know if you've seen the play Peachtree Battle, but if you are in the mood for comedy with witty dialogue - you may like this group's work. They have shows at the Ansley Park Playhouse and Peachtree Playhouse. Peachtree Battle is supposed to end July 30th - it's been held over for a couple years now I think, but the upcoming shows sound fun. Some of the humor is Atlanta specific, but much of it is more generally Southern.
