So I'm planning to go to NYIAS for the first time as I happen to be in town. Any veterans out there that have tips and advice for me to make the most of it? Also, I'm not sure if I can buy tickets right at the convention center or if I have to print them out at home - I'd rather just buy them there.

Have a sliding 993 for your trouble.

Tickets are available at the door, yes.

What day are you going? Several Oppos will be there on Saturday.

Not sure yet, I was thinking either Saturday or Monday. Is there some Oppo meet-up planned?

Don't try to park close unless you like paying a lot.

Not officially, at least not that anyone has mentioned. I was working on a separate meetup over in NJ, likely to be Sunday now.

RicoRich, Brian Silvestro, Kyle, myself and Stevo777 will be there saturday it looks like. Dr Benjamin Rolland will be there friday. If I'm confusing anything, people can correct me, but that's the info I have now. A saturday Oppo meet can be good, 5-6 of us is a good number, there may be more that aren't posting about it (or posting recently).

Easier to buy the tickets online and print but tickets are available at the center. Lines can be pretty long on the first days of the event. Bring a bag that you can put posters and stuff in because they like to hand a couple things out, nothing fancy but some cool booklets.

If you're free Sunday, I'm doing a meet, did I send you an email? Send me one! [username]@gmail

Sounds good. I'd love to meet up and stroll through the halls together. Hit me up if there are any specific plans.

Ha, I'll rely on the MTA to get me there, as always - I don't own a car. And the trip isn't that far from Williamsburg.

shoot me an email [username]@gmail and I'll keep you in the loop. Easier than using kinja for it, if you want. I can also keep you informed about other meets that we have in this general area throughout the year

would recommend buying them ahead. First time I went, my buddy and I stood in line for 30 minutes before standing for another 10 min to get in.

Holy. Alright, will have to find a place to print them out then, but that's worth it for not standing in line.

I also made the mistake of showing up 5 minutes after some speech was delivered outside at the grand opening and i would guess a thousand people started walking inside.
