So, what're you wearing to PAX?

I'm just bringing my standard Dockers-style pants (or shorts if weather is oppressive), and maybe a shirt. Yeah, I think a shirt is a good idea.

Anyone dressing up (I know there is a cosplay thread; I don't mean cosplay, I mean miscellaneous cool costume or outfit)? Anyone have a rare/home made geeky shirt to brag about?

    Ah, clothes, Borfase, good choice ^.^ Unless you have a very fine set of animal hide, or an oaken barrel.

    I'm considering bringing my PAX '04 shirt, too; not sure, though. It's too tough of a decision for me; I may just have to not go =P

    The only shirt I'm really looking forward to wearing is my "Zero to Drunk in 20 Dollars" Div shirt.

    I love that shirt. A little too much, really.

    I have PA shirts, but I figure that will be so entirely common so I'm not even bringing them.

    I'm planning on jeans and t-shirt. I'll have some dockers and a golf shirt should anything slightly upscale occur.

    Yeah, that's why I hesitate to wear my PAX '04 shirt; there will be so many, and I would be so stupid, that I may end up thinking I'm in a hall of mirrors.

    I *can* be pretty stupid sometimes.

    I am flying in so I don't really have space for costuming which will probably make me sad if other people do dress up. I guess I'll just be in my usual goth girl attire, (fishnet, vlevet, boots, etc.). Of course my blue/purple hair with all the braids kind of makes up for lack of costuming. ;-)

    I have had some new clothes tailored for me.

    The tailor told me that they are magical, and only those people who are virtuous will be able to percieve them.

    I can totally see them.

    Wow. Borfase was right. You guys are way too concerned with what you're going to be wearing at PAX.

    It doesn't matter what you look like. You're all going to smell like dirty hobos anyway.

    Anyone know where to get good game shirts in -girl- sizes, aparently I am doomed only to find nintendo shirts in 'men's Large' gah way too big. I guess I'll default to a monster large nintendo shirt if I can't find a better sized one.

    (btw hi, this is my first post! I play mostly mmorpgs) :D

    FYI, Borfase is far hotter than your boyfriend.
