The email I got from the NRA approving my credential request said to bring a copy of the email, a photo ID, plus “proof of media employment (business card, press credential, online bylines, etc)“.
I printed out some of the gun related articles from the blog. I have a press pass (thanks LawDog) so I brought that. I printed business cards.
They didn’t ask for anything except my ID. I was in and out in less than five minutes.
Show starts tomorrow. Tragically, our hotel is charging $14! Dollars! A! Day! for WiFi. I may be limited to phone blogging, unless I decide to eat the cost for you, my loyal and tolerant readers.
iPhone Settings->Cellular->Set Up Personal Hotspot
I’m not sure how much
SprintT-Mobile charges me for that.Also, I tried that when we were in the room, and I could not get the iPad to load anything when I had it connected to the phone hotspot.
I did end up springing for 24 hours of hotel Internet, but that was only because I had some work work (as opposed to gun writing work) that I needed to get done before we left on Monday.
