One of our friends takes his sons every year. They all have fancy clone trooper (not storm trooper) costumes. Pre-registration badges were about $35/day, and on-site was $45/day. You can get a 4-day badge, and there are some special packages, like "VIG" (Very Important Gamer), where you can get extra perks and stuff. The <a href="http://www.gencon.com/2008/indy/attendees/registration.aspx" rel="nofollow">registration info is here</a>. @Jennae: I thought about getting a badge, but didn’t end up doing it.

I am still so jealous that you at least got to see some of the convention... How do you go about getting badges - are there sponsors and give-aways, or do they just cost an arm and a leg?
