Prebought cosplay tickets

[sayashinigami]

I recently read that a cosplayer who prebought his/her ticket has to present themselves in costume at the entrance. (I quote: "People presenting a cos' play ticket without being dressed up will be refused entrance. They will have to purchase a new ticket.")

- What if I have a cosplay with big armour, and I cannot drive in it?
- What if it's raining and I'm wearing body make-up?
- What if I wear a hoopskirt and thus cannot fit in my car? (or hinder lots of people in public transport)
- What if I'm rather naked (eg Slave Leila) and don't feel comfortable getting on the train like that?
- What if I wear a long wig and it's windy?
- What if I'm from France and have to travel 4 hours in a uncomfortable costume?
- What if I'm wearing a complete white cosplay and it's raining?
- What if I have (large) latex bodyparts that are impossible to wear in a car/public transport?
- What if ... ?

And to be a complete partypooper, why keep insisting on spelling it "cos'play"?

true true

I was thinking the same when I bought my tickets.

I think they should allow you inside when you show your bag with the cosplay in it. If they don't it would be pretty lame.

I think they'll understand when you tell them that you'll get dressed in the locker room.

Yes, that's what I did last year though they were still hesitant.. I don't get it, why would they have dressing rooms in the first place?

(Also, I must say I was thinking of you when writing it. Sylvanas= bodypaint! Bodypaint + Rain = asking for problems)

haha yes, hopefully it'll be warm/dry enough, and otherwise I'll be wearing a raincoat (oh so d**n sexy).

Saya, I agree very much. Where do I have to sign?
euh, I might be wearing Leia's ceremonial gown on sunday, and I'm really NOT wearing it the whole way to Flanders Expo >.< That would absolutely ruin the dress!

Don't worry, if you have your cosplay clothes in your bag, you'll enter.
