11. Do not hinder or obstruct the flow of foot traffic within the convention area.
While we want you to have fun, we also need you to be considerate of everyone's fun and safety. If a hallway suddenly fills with a group of people doing something like this, it can bring traffic through the entire convention center to a halt. Jams like that have taken hours to clear up, simply because of the bottleneck they cause. If Anime Boston staff encounter an incident like that, they will immediately ask the participants to cease and move on. Failure to comply can result in an ejection from the convention and confiscation of membership badge.
If you're somewhere off the convention grounds, away from the heavy foot traffic and not in anyone's way, feel free to knock yourself out. But be aware that facility staff or city officials (including Boston PD) may still ask you to move along.
There are over 20,000 other people at the convention who need to move around from place to place. Please remember that when planning your activities.
