I’m definitely excited to return to Las Vegas for EVO 2016. My initial thoughts are to spend Thursday flying out, the long weekend at the event (hopefully with a new iPhone or a couple of external batteries to recharge the phone with) and spend the following Monday flying back.

After dealing with AXS.com’s somehow Flash-based ticket ordering process, I was able to grab the tickets I needed for the weekend: the convention hall spectator pass and a floor seat ticket in Mandalay Bay Arena for Sunday.

I’m going to wait a bit to figure out my hotel and flight situation, but I’ve got the first part of the whole situation figured out. And that first step is half the battle, right?

I mean, I guess a typical sports fan would StubHub their ticket right now and try to make some obscene profit, but not I—I will actually show up, I will eat Chipotle and I will try to play better poker this time around!

All of those things.
