    Indy was fun...and I think the complaints about overcrowding (while valid concerns) was greatly exaggerated.

    A large part of the problem was fanboys who felt the world revolved around their wants; you're going to get that anywhere! I actually helped one of the volunteers (Saturday) with crowd control at the bottom of the staircase...and was disgusted at how many people were so rude to someone merely trying to keep EVERYONE safe.

    Chicago would be interesting (never been there)...how large is their convention center compared to Indy?

    San Diego...while expensive for me (what isn't in this economy)...wouldn't be so bad! Plus it would be a chance to visit Sea World; I used to work at Sea World Cleveland...and I think some of "da boyz" (whales) ended up there!

    Indy WAS fun! I had the time of my life! However... and I mean NO disrespect, but it really, really was overcrowded. I'm not in any way a fanboy. Gender, age, and predilection doesn't allow for it. I'm just a mere fan who had a great time but had a very hard time getting from place to place on Friday and Saturday. I could have used more room to get to where I was going on time. I didn't see some things because of that problem. Got to the Dome very early in the morning, but just couldn't negotiate the space for the crowds. I really hope it's Indy again... just hope there's more room!

    I'm sorry volunteers got rude comments from some fans. The volunteers (especially the 501st!) I met were always courteous and extremely helpful. Celeb II wouldn't have been as great as it was if not for them.

    C2 was crowded mainly because they did not know how may people would come, so they did not rent too much space. Now they would get more space because they are sure there will be a big turnout.

    Well, according to Sebulba-X's new post, it's most likley Indy.

    So, I'm going to lock this up now. Thank all of you who voted, and May The Force Be With You in Indy, 2004!
