When you check in you get a wristband so you can come and go as you please if you want to go get meals or whatever outside of the venue. It's in downtown Raleigh so there are a few restaurants within walking distance. edit: Be a responsible fan and bring a cheerful! | ||

Be a responsible fan and bring a cheerful! White board would probably be best so you can just keep changing this up for each game ^^ I'm planning on bringing a couple chairs with me as well and just leave them in my car better to have them and not need them than to be stuck without a place to sit imo. | ||

Chairs. There is a lack of them. I would bring a pillow because you may have to sit on the floor (sometimes they allow it sometimes they don't, bring one to be safe). Food and Drinks if you aren't willing to shell the money. It costed me 3 dollars for a regular bottle of water. It's expensive there, so if you're on a budget I recommend this. Comfortable ass shoes. You may be standing a lot. Your shoes will help your legs support you for hours on end, especially when those 4 straight back to back TvTs hit. Camera and an extra battery (or just charge your shit every night unlike me) - Epic moments deserve the kodak treatment. Something to get autographed - I got a bunch of autographs. You'll want something autographed possibly. A shirt is typical. Some people brought keyboards, their SC2 box, or some even had their body signed. So whatever you want signed. A backpack - You want your seat saved? Put a backpack on it. I don't recommend putting in important things like a laptop in it maybe just some food and such. Also you want to hide your food in this because they don't allow food past the door (unless you sneak it). That's what I would call essential (beside money) to bring to the venue. Hope you have as much fun as I did when I went to MLG Anaheim. | ||

I would like to add that you should probably not bring a folding chair with you to MLG. Some poor kid lugged one all they way to the rear of the seating area and was forced by security to fold it back up and put it away. ![[image loading]](http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6021/6004639466_6f6f27e39e.jpg) edit: oh also if you bring a pillow, there is the off chance that a progamer will ask to borrow it from you. when you get it back you have your very own special type of esports memorabilia: the ass pillow. | ||

Thanks for the info guys. I think the comfortable shoes and maybe a pillow were the best suggestions haha. I'm flying from NY so I won't be able to bring a huge whiteboard or anything like that with me sadly~ Anyone else flying in Friday? I might have to take a taxi or something | ||
