If you get too hot, you can always go take a dunk in the baptism pool to cool off!
San Diego Convention Rules

I've been to a convention in that stadium, you really broiled in that heat. An umbrella is a must if you don't want heat stroke. I guess I get that the large pop ups are too much, but the large umbrellas really do give more shade. With the personal umbrella you can still get sunburned, especially if you have a toddler who won't sit in the seat for hours at a time.
What's there to see anyway? A guy standing there, it's not like you can see facial expressions any way.

There has been instances of some small kids dying from heat exhaustion at some of the big DC's in the fifties I think it was.

Arrrgh...
Whenever I see this thread title, I keep thinking of the stupid jock from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure:
"San Dimas High School Football RULES!!!"

Said to either So Crates or Beeth oven, I don't remember which. It definitely wasn't to Ms. of Arc

The back 4 rows in every section will be reserved for elderly and infirmed. There won't be a lot of seats in the shade. Administration doesn't care. They are in offices and box seats with AC. I can't wait to see the aisle fights with attendants from those battling skin cancer or with small children. It will be like the mass exit from the world series when your team is down by 8 in the 7th inning.

sparrowdown: "instances of kids dying from heat exhaustion in the 50's", are you kidding me? I had not heard this before, were you there? I was at a DC where a kid drowned in one of the "recommended" hotel pools. That's what happens when you mix poor recreation-starved kids and "free" pool access.

Rule 1: Don't go. I hope it starts pouring rain during the whole thing, and I hope suits are ruined, littera-trash is soaked, and everyone gets dirty because they couldn't pull out their umbrellas.

@JustVisiting-
No I was'nt there (not born yet) but I read about it on Watchtower documents?? (possibly). I will try to find it and post it.
I can't comment on the hotel pool drowning story, but there was also an incident of child drowning in one of the ponds/lakes at one of the convention sites during the lunch break.

It was So Crates, Shirley.
Thanks for being excellent to me, BTW.
Party on, dude.
