Unfortunately, the eBay auction that inspired this post has since been removed, so I can only link to the Kotaku news article which led me to it.

It seems that someone was selling two E3 2006 exhibit passes on eBay. I found this interesting, because of the idea the rest of us were throwing around.

We were considering attending E3 and doing a live podcast from the showroom floor. E3 is not a public event, but rather, it is only for members of the interactive entertainment industry. In order to prove your affiliation with the industry, you are required to be a registered company and provide two forms of identification that proves this.

So, Josh suggested that we register the Red Card Group as a company, and apply for a company credit card, which would easily satisfy the required documentation. Now, since you also need to be 18 or older, the only eligible members of the group for E3 would be Binks, myself and Brian.

It is quite an interesting idea, although the cost is huge and the likelihood of success is non-existent.

Still, it would have been fun.
