9. Locate Your Meal And Sleeping Sites.

So you've got your tickets, now it's time to work out the finer details. SDCC-adjacent hotels are nightmarishly expensive, so you're probably going to want to find one far from the convention center. Fortunately though, there are regular busses to and from the building you can take. Or, you can take a pedal-cab if you want to make another human being work for your amusement. (Trust me, you do).

For food, you will actually have a decent experience. Across the street from the convention center is a wonderful area with a buncha restaurants and, although they will be pretty darn bust during the lunch rush, if you go at slightly off hours, you'll be good. Don't try and eat in the convention center. It's expensive and not worth it. Bring some snacks with you, trust me. And water.

Bring water or you WILL regret it.

Seriously, we're talking about San Diego in July, it gets hot as hell out there.
