There were no volunteers helping direct or explain where anything was. And on the gaming level, we wandered helplessly nearly the entire floor before we finally found them nested at a single end. While some of the vendors here were interesting to visit, the effort was hardly worth it. And the walk between these corners is exhausting (the Dome is HUGE, they play football games there after all). But as we walked the long, barren halls we began to realize that while some vendors had been situated, or moved from the previous day, to these levels, they were condensed mostly around the stairwells at each of the four corners. On Saturday, we realized that the upper floors of the Dome also contained vendors, which seemed like a fantastic idea and judicious use of space.

Seriously!Īnd it’s not for lack of trying. And as we tried to shrug off the hassles of getting in, we were told only VIPs could use the escalator at the front to go down to the main floor, and everyone else needed to walk to one of the far stairs at each corner of the building. Who’da thunk? On that same note, the 3-Day pass was now a wrist-band that we were expected to wear for three days straight (thanks), and the Flash Pass was a card meant to be hung on the lanyard they didn’t include (thanks). Fortunately, some industrious staffer had the bright idea to walk by and ask if anyone was waiting for just a Flash Pass, handing one to us. Once through the door, our tickets were deemed unscannable for some reason, and we were shuttled to a customer service line, who promptly gave us our 3-Day passes, but then directed us to a third, and MUCH-longer line, to get our Flash Pass.

It took another hour or so to get inside, most likely because instead of utilizing the 10 staffed entrances, they herded everyone into one of 4 gates. After the 1-mile walk to the Dome, we went through security no problem, then spent 5 minutes trying to find the end of the overwhelming line of people waiting to get in! None of the wandering staff were directing people where to go.
