And do not look them in the eye as they'll take it as a sign of interest and follow you.

Lol, what are with these harassment stories. I don't think I've had anyone do anything more than try to hand me pamphlets. 
 
Although I also walk around with some pretty high isolating IEMs all the time so maybe I just don't notice.

They're just annoying more than anything. Don't want anyone falling into a tourist trap.

I've lived in NYC most of my life.  I'd like to add: the best way to avoid them is to not look like a tourist (target).  Don't gawk at skyscrapers or take pictures of street signs (ugh!).  Look at the concrete or straight ahead.

Beware of the Naked Cowboy!  (Who is not really naked).

OK, downloaded and set up the New Jersey Transit app, guess I'm training in... I'm have to come in early if I'm going to make the 10 o'clock demo I'm signed for.

We are driving in.  I'd offer you a lift, but we are going for both days so probably won't leave NJ until mid morning.  Hope to meet you though!

I'm going for both days too, got talked out of driving. Don't think I've mass transited into Manhattan for more than 10 years. See how it goes for Sunday.I'd go later, but I made an appointment at 10 for the REALISER A16 demo. Thanks, though! See you there.

OK, the wife is suggesting I go in by mass transit, I may leave the car and take the train in, I'll see...

Yes, I also agree on the leaving the vehicles home. That's what I'm doing. Less stuff to worry about in the long run.

Just registered. Looking forward to it.

It's great to be in NYC for CanJam, so glad this show finally came to the east coast! Like many of the other exhibitors, I was able to set everything up on Friday. All I have to do now is get up in the morning and wander down to the 6th floor. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone.

Unfortunately there are sometimes reports of items stolen (as announced at some of the past events). It has been rumored or suggested that some companies might be staging these announcements as a form of publicity. I really don't think anyone would stoop so low just to get some attention. On that note I regret to report that my Violectric purple tooth brush is missing! I'm pretty sure it was stolen. I'm not saying for sure, but I think I know who it was. On Friday afternoon I was talking with Jude and then shortly after I realized it wasn't in my pocket anymore. I'm not accusing Jude (although he is my prime suspect at the moment), I'm just saying if you did take it I hope you will do the right thing and return it. I promise not to press any charges.

Arrived a few hours ago and walked around for a brief bit, too cold for a Californian like me! But had fun, looked an elmo in the eye and that almost ended poorly.

Look forward to tomorrow morning! Check me out in the Questyle booth.

 

[ArthurPower]

It's not just to cold for a Californian, I'm from the Jersey shore and I was freezing my ***** off walking around town last night. That wind cuts right through you!

 

[DavidWeinberg]

This will be my first CanJam.  On the BoltBus now heading north from DC. Super excited that CamJam has finally landed on the East Coast.  Be on the scene by noon. 

 

 

[Darkestred]

Are we supposed to wear our board name badges there?  So we can post in real-time?  Kidding.  Heading there in the next hour.  See none or maybe some of you there.

 

[m8o]

Ya, we had weeks of 50 degrees, and it's forecasted again later this week. Unfortunate timing on this burst of cold. Blame Canada.

I just landed at LaGuardia.
