    Figure out what you want to see and where it is before you get there, ESPECIALLY your first time at Dragon Con. The crowds make finding things even more difficult.

    Remember when you talk sh*t about people as they pass you, chances are good that they can hear you. This is especially important if they are bigger and meaner than you

    I know the costumes are cool, but seriously, don't stop in the middle of a crowded walkway to take a picture!! The people behind you will thank you

    Hyatt bar is where it's at... and the new walkway leads directly to the Marriott bar. No more navigating the stairs of doom in tricky costumes!

    Do not taunt heavily armed & armoured cosplayers, they are hot and stuffy in there and quick to violence!

    Do not cut in front of heavily dressed cosplayers. They probably have an assistant and don't need to be separated from them.

    Shower! Do not just wear extra cologne. Nobody likes the smell of whatever brand you use, anyway.
