thats exactly what you do.

A couple minor points:

1> preregistration people can show up friday evening to pick up their badges early.

2> 8 am is the registration purchase time on saturday morning. The earlier you get there, the better chance you have of getting in. ($40 at the door)

3> registration is looking really good this year so we MIGHT sell out so refer to point 2.

You show up and get in line to pick up your badge.

After you sign in they usally give you a bag full of goodies and a events schedule and a seperate schedule for the viewing rooms. So just after that, make sure you have a watch and go to all the events you want to see.

The really poplualr events are the cosplay contest, The AMV contest, and the Dance. If you want good seats for the cosplay and AMV contest get there in line EARLY before you end up behind 1,000 + people unable to see anything sitting in back.

It's a bag fulla swag.  In the past it's been a promo manga, maybe a trading card or two, a small poster, and maybe a few other small things.  Oh and a convention program.
