Breakfast Topic: Did you get your BlizzCon tickets?

Both rounds of BlizzCon ticket sales have now come and gone — and if you didn’t grab your ticket, you’re probably out of luck. Sure, you could pick up a $750 benefit dinner ticket (on sale April 27 at 7PM PT) or slightly less expensive scalped tickets (currently selling for around $400 on eBay), but for most Saturday’s ticket sales were the end of it.

So the question is — did you get your tickets?

Once again, the ticketing system was a frustration, meaning that snagging a ticket was luck as much as anything else. (Though quick clicking skills certainly help.) The difference between getting a ticket and not getting a ticket could be determined by connection speed or by whether you took the time to select a number of tickets before entering your credit card number… any number of things could have sunk your chances.

Of course not all of us want to go to BlizzCon. Even beyond the tickets themselves, flights and hotels are pricey, and crowds and lines are atrocious. (Tip: Use the Starbucks app to pre-order your drinks unless you want to wait a half hour in line.) Is all of that really worth it for something you can watch via virtual ticket from the comfort of home?

So for those of you who got a ticket, congrats! And for those of you who didn’t, just think about the cash you’re saving — you can still catch all the BlizzCon news from a distance.
