She was just upset because you guys were taking up valuable space that rightfully belongs to illegal aliens.

As my first Celebration ever, I have to say...
...it was literally one of the most amazing experiences of my life.
I'm only twenty, and I've never traveled without my family before. This time around, I went with my best girlfriend, and we had a blast. We were so worried that we were excited for nothing, but CIV did NOT let us down!!! I would definitely do it all over again!!

I enjoyed it and would gladly do it all over again despite the constant soreness in my feet from walking. Meeting JCers, working for OPix, the bluelight special in the store after the con had ended, and getting my personal Ackbar photo signed by Tim Rose, it was 5 days I wish I could repeat a la "Groundhog's Day".

Awwww. 
Thanks. It was a couple hours to kill. Upshot, I now know about an arcade that's open late about 10 minutes from where I work, since I went driving around looking for food and cuz I didn't have anything to do til I got a call to pick up a friend. Didn't actually go IN said arcade though...was right when I got the call.
Next time there's a hip place to be, remember the cardinal words, "Let the Wookiee in"

That's something we'll rectify at C5.
Fixed for you Jen.
And it was great to meet you Ian, Jen, Paulie, Kyle, Helen, and absolutely everyone else. It was an absolute blast, and I don't regret the amount of money I ended up paying to get here.

I had an awesome time and it was great to meet people I had only known from the boards before this. I had a great time at Disneyland and the con was great, Celebration 4 was my first con ever and I thought it was great, there was a nice variety of things to do. I was worried initially about my daughter being bored, well that wasn't possible! She is now a die hard Star Wars fan, after attending this convention. From the shows (one man and 30 minutes are awesome), to the family room with cool activities for the kids, to working for official pix, to laser tag, to the fan films, and everything else, it was awesome. The OPX bonus for working last shift was sweet as well! Hope to see you all at C5------I think we should go East Coast this time! (Yes i'm partial, but i'd go anywhere!)

This was my first Celebration as well and I thought, as a Star Wars fan, it was well worth it. My dad was already talking about going to the next one while on the plane back home.

Yes, let's.
I'm hoping to be able to afford C5 when in rolls around. 2010, right? That'd be my guess.
I DEFINITELY MUST make C6 since I'm such a big fan of "Return of the Jedi". My guess is 2013.
Yub yub!
May the Force be with us.

This was my first Celebration and I have to say - it was INCREDIBLE!! We met so many people, I learned so much more about Star Wars, got to meet some of my heroes and bonded with my already close buddies. We had a blast at the Sheraton - created a lot of fond and funny memories!!
I'm definitely going to C5!!!
Tim Rose was AWESOME!!!

I've had fun at all the Celebrations I have attended, but this one was probably the best because of all the great people I met. I spent almost every night hanging out at the Fig and it was an awesome experience. I can't wait for the next one!

I had the greatest time ever. Too many fantastic moments to list, but here is one; I met a guy in the Anthony D. line who had tickets to an event that MR was hosting in Hollywood (at the Jim Hensen company). About 6 or 7 of the SW actors were there, it was AWESOME, by far my favorite part of C-IV, even though it wasn't part of the convention. I even got photo's of me and David Prowse having a beer.
