No wonder AX had that hotel wristband policy for last year.....

I wanted to know if anyone knows the max occupancy for a king bedded room at the Marriott.... Originally there were 2 of us, but now there are three. The issue I'm concerned with is if we can get 3 hotel keys, more than anything else. Because you would assume they would allow 3 people if they rent out rollaways.... 2 in the bed one on the cot? We won't be getting a rollaway, but same principle... Does anyone know about this?

Wristband policy? What was it for?

In a nutshell, it was the hotels' way of enforcing the fire safety code and preventing room stuffing.

That seems like a logistical nightmare/pain in the ass. I don't think Comic-Con has anything like that...

I've seen other events do something like this and for the most part, it was to prevent people from taking the shuttle as well as keeping complete strangers from entering the hotel. As much as people want to pretend that it prevents room stuffing, you can just escort your friends through and security will not stop you.
