They have used military equipments for their personal use so many times which is a federal crime and they are scared to buy scalp tickets😂😂

[@All.RoundShorts]

😂😂😂

[@darryljack6612]

To be fair using military equipment can only get you thrown in prison, buying scalped tickets can get you banned

[@joshkeller2671]

You get banned from comicon for life, the risk isn't worth it.

[@reginaldsmith2024]

Why r u hating?

[@swedishshortsnout5610]

@@joshkeller2671 Even if you end up being banned from Comic-Con for life, can't you still go by continuing to buy scalped tickets? I don't get it. It's like telling a known shoplifter that they can't buy anything from your store - that's hardly worth saying because they don't have to buy it. They'll still come in and swipe it off your shelves.

As a person who has been to SDCC more than once and have also missed it due to sold out badges more than once, I can confirm all emotions in this scene are 100% accurate. 😂

[@bobbuethe1477]

1:50 What makes this especially funny for me is that the "lone dreamer" who founded Comic-Con, whose name Sheldon didn't know, was (wait for it) -- Sheldon Dorf.

[@constantdvdcollector]

I think George RR Martin was the first guy to buy a ticket, too

I mean the show is already old enough to drive. They mentioned Myspace in the first episode

[@JamesP44]

How upset they were reminds me of missing out on Iron Maiden tickets

[@TheTrooper6.6.6]

For me missing out a lot of Concerts

[@ricksaburai]

I went to see Maiden a couple of times and it's an awesome show. They're getting up in years though. One time Linkin Park came to my city and for some reason or other I couldn't go, and a short time later everything went down. Sad about it for the rest of my life

[@chazz30000]

So a bunch of nerds with access to military hardware and probably an entire IT faculty couldn't set up a bot to get into the tickets sell quick?

In the country where I live there's a Comic-Con too but I admit I never went because there was never a celebrity I was interested in meeting in person

[@primetime3422]

Me personally I don’t understand why scalping is illegal. U bought ur ticket, u can do with it what you want.

[@kouani1995]

You bought ticket to use it on the event because thats how its intended to be used. Not sell it again. Its like you buying a cooked food to eat not to sell. Only opportunistic and greedy people do that. Its true you can do whatever you want but youre still a greedy POS. 😂

[@biggfish7010]

It turns into people buying 100s of tickets and then selling them at marked up prices

[@primetime3422]

@@biggfish7010 so then there becomes competition, which can drive the price down. Or make law, you can only sell your ticket with at most a 10% markup

[@99EKjohn]

​@@biggfish7010so? That's supply and demand, it's the same thing as any investment.

[@99EKjohn]

It's not illegal btw, there is no state or federal law against it, it is just against certain organizations rules.

[@lisardo]

My husband works in event and production and works shows all the time at local venues. And even HE'S stumped as to why the San D con doesn't extend their event to more than 4 days, being how popular it is and how quickly it sells out! It is kind of dumb of them.

[@darkjediMIK]

This was a generally funny episode but it’s the only time they ever stress about getting into comic con; if it’s this hard, how are they able to go so many times?

[@pepOnshow]

it's easy they get their comic book guy to get them badges like any normal comic book aficionado

[@abirachman]

CC used to be for only the nerd of us, now that it became mainstream, everyone wants to go there

[@youmustcreateachanne]

Mainstream? Haha.

[@Strengthnerd5]

Im not familiar enough to comment with every episode where comic con is a plot point but there are a few possibilities: 1. Theyre discussing other comic con locations I know at least one episode they went to comic con in bakersfield. 2. They could be going to a different convention as this episode noted there are a number of lesser conventions one can attend. 3. Over the years going to comic con and getting tickets has become exponentially more difficult as nerd culture has become more influential in hollywood the San Diego comic con has become a showcase for studios to make announcements for all or at least most of their major film projects sparking more demand from a general audience

[@friendlyneigborhoodbean]

They mention comic con plenty of times and I'm pretty sure there are a few more plot points related to it. But the show doesn't show every single second of their lives. Also it would get super old by like the third time if they kept doing a comic con storyline for every damn season

[@DiskoNixon.]

As a person who has gone to SDCC 7 years in a row and then 1 year not getting tickets, this episode hit home ha

I am curious. How did you manage to get tickets?

You know I struggle with Batman 😂👊

[@ChatPOPPAT]

Reminds me buying Cricket world cup tickets in India

[@Alphoric]

I don’t think scalped tickets is against the rules and if it were they’d just make it so the person who bought the tickets had to be at the event. That’s what other events have done to mitigate scalping

[@TerritoryKid01]

You need to make a reunion movie. Or a Howard spin off series.

[@Boom_Bianca]

Yesss we want Young Howard!!

[@SensiofRabbitude]

I heard vague talk not that long ago about a Howard spin-off but I'd assume it'd be present day Howard.

[@richardwhite9975]

Gone to a comic con numerous times with my grandson..they always had a table with knives and swords guess where we spent out time..

[@Rkay421]

is it really aginst the rules to buy scalped tickets and do they really ban you for life? If so why?

[@daiyaanmuhammad]

Yay. They actually ate the food on the set rather than just moving it around

[@TheMapleDreamer]

Good, you wasted the scalpers time.

[@user-eq6dj9dy5l]

[@joshuadelgado1286]

I always wanted to go to comic con

[@Mortified42]

Just don't shower for 3 days and eat nothing but pizza and fast food burgers and just imagine standing in a line for 8 hours before you watch the stream of panels. It's 95% of the experience. The other 5% is being awkward person surrounded by other awkward people. Long story short...not really worth it Oh yeah I forgot it's also in San Diego, what a garbage town.
