What would you tell a first timer to the DCC

Considering making the trip this year to the DCC for the first time, but as I have never been, what would you old timers tell a first timer to make the experience easier with less glitches.
Hang on to your wallet well and don't get drunk.:)
 
As a player or spectator?

If as a player...pray that you draw Efren, Johnny etc...for the HISTORY of playing them and to have an outstanding excuse for losing! (-:

Secondly, remember to breathe.

As a spectator, spring for the VIP passes if they are not already sold out. If you're going to all the trouble of attending, you might as well spend the relatively few extra bucks because, if you don't, you will be OFTEN frustrated by not being able to see many of the matches unless you stand at least 6'4".

And you can't get into ANY of the TV matches without one.

But I guarantee you, it is one of the BEST, MOST FUN and ACTION packed tournaments in America today. HUGE PROPS to Diamond for sponsoring this legend-in-the-making!
Regards,
Jim

I think it is $6 for the morning matches and $9 for the evening, or you can enter the banks for a $100 and see the whole tourny. Whatever you chose is going to be find. You just can't go wrong if you have fun and don't go off the deep in. There is a hustler everywhere you look. So don't fall for any sure thing bets.

All the hustlers in the world won't get a dime out of me. If I go it will be to watch pool, not gamble.
 
Freddy, great reminder

Whatever else, do not miss the One Pocket HOF dinner on the 8th of Jan. It's an experience of a lifetime. Contact Steve Booth of OnePocket.org for reservations. Every year is sold out so dont wait until the last minute. Grady and I will share Master of Ceremony slots, along with other players who jump up and contribute great stories and jackpots. It's a wild time. Nothing like the BCA HOF dinner I attended in Vegas where I fell asleep at the table. There we have players doing the acknowledgements rather than billiard factory owners.

Does anyone know if the parking area is secure at the hotel? I am thinking of driving there, but don't want to bring my good ride unless there's 24 hour security.
