Great views from your room. That pedestrian bridge is new.

Some guys practicing on the side of a building for some kind of aerial combat/dance display. They were connected by wires to harnesses around their waist. The wires were controlled to allow the guys to run vertically up and down while appearing to stand against the wall. They'd run at each other, throw punches, and explode backward. Whenever I saw them it looked like they were just practicing. Did anybody actually see them perform?

In line to pick up retailer badges Wednesday afternoon. This line went really fast--I was done in about 5 minutes. Spent a lot more time in line last year.

The Lego pile. Great for building yellow things.

The installation for Marvel Monstergeddon, the Marvel-branded monster truck show. I still don't get it.

My wife and I with Bladezz from The Guild. We went to the Hammer improv show at 4th & B. Turns out the guy who plays Bladezz wasn't yet 21 and couldn't get into the theater even though two of his castmates were in the show.

That's the Coronado Bridge in the background.

 

It's the scariest bridge I've ever been on.

He's hiding his boner.
