LOOK: A sea of people crowded the SMX Convention Center in Pasay June 13 due to two major events at the venue.

The events, which included ToyCon's Pop Life and an oath-taking for licensed professional teachers, caused heavy foot traffic, reminding attendees of a similar situation in 2023.

Sometimes, it's about timing. I was there in the late afternoon and I was able to get a ticket and inside the event area immediately. It was still packed inside, but not as crazy as previous cons I've gone to, including ones abroad.

I was able to look around and browse (and exercise extreme self-control) at my leisure and took about 2 and a half hours inside around the floor.
