No one checks. My wife had her purse stolen so of course the thief had ID to match the credit cards, so when the clerk looks at the ID it matches the card, no one ever looks at the person. As for my driver's license, for some reason they have not shot a new pic, I think the one I have is like 12 years old.
In Sweden at least a person with a fake ID is not considered to be either trustworthy or mature.
Maybe in the US this is normal?
I don't know if it is normal in the United States, but it is fairly popular. I don't know what the rules are like in Sweden, but many things here are based on age rather than maturity level. If I were underage and wished to go to concerts sponsored by beer companies or to see Michael Moore's new movie, then an altered or fake ID card would certainly be an option.
Unfortunately, although not unexpectedly, many immature people tend to abuse fake IDs to participate in acts for which they are not ready. This behavior tends to create a certain stereotype that both of our countries seem to share.
Personally, I won't hold the fact that stuartwesterman has a fake ID against him. I first attended Defcon when I was 17. Although I had already graduated college and was working full time, I was still legally considered a minor and potentially faced the dangers highwizard had mentioned. Fortunately, even though I was alone (and without a fake ID), I had no difficulty in booking either a flight to Las Vegas or a hotel room.
I am very new to these forums, but still a guinine and trustworthy person. I would love to reserver some "floor" (meaning i want to sleep on the floor) space. I will be willing to pay. Please if there is room left email stuartwesterman@gmail.com .
I am a 17 year old male. I wish to experience def con.
I will sleep on the street if I can't sleep in your room or if no one answers my new thread in this forum. (regardless of whether or not I have a room, I will be there ;))
edit: I have a fake id!
edit: The mere fact that my parents are letting me do this alone should say something about my credibility and my maturity.
yeah I also need a room to get some sleep I only get like 3 hours of sleep and thats it so if I can crash in ur room let me know, I dont care if it is floor or whatever.
Sleep by the pool during the day (2pm-5pm) at Con. That way you can be safer.
Just don't do it at night.. That's when they come, that's when they'll get you!

I am most likely moving to South Africa just after the con and I won't be making a whole lot of money in american dollars. It'l cost me 5,000 bucks for a plane ride in their currency so this will probably me my last :(
if there is still the option to join ya, i'd be very interested. i should be in vegas from the monday thru thurs, then my friend departs, and i want to stay. i should have a rental car for the duration, but desperately want to take in the con.
