I was feeling really down for missing most of day 2 of 2.

A friend told me about a party they were going to at DEFCON and offered to sneak me in. I wanted to make up for my missed experience, so I was excited.

I went to the party and watched the goons checking badges at the door. My friend texted right then and said they were going to be pretty late. Trying to not look suspicious, I entered an adjacent public party to wait.
