I put the wrist band on more tight than I should, nobody said these would be impossible to remove without using scissors, if anybody has any ideas please lmk
Edit: including pic of new wrist band for people wondering, these things only tighten and they don't loosen, however I was able to take this one off thankfully as it was not too tight

Not sure you understand the purpose of the wristband
not sure you understand the idiocy of the process
^ Tell me you've never been to a festival without telling me you've never been to a festival. ^
Cringe assumption buddy
All modern music festivals use a wristband you aren't supposed to remove though. These particular wristbands are the same ones used in festivals back in 2015 or so. They aren't even the most secure. You can take them off with a straw.
What do they look like ? My cosplay has vambraces. I hope they don't get in the way of each other
Just added a pic on my post
I added a pic to the OP but yeah we all get the same one
It's too late. Nothing left to do but show off to the world that you're going to NYCC.
I got the bracelet today too. It’s impossible to take off without cutting it off ..
I ended up going back for another one after dinner, they had scissors there for this exact reason
It’s just crazy they expect you to wear it till Sunday at most without taking it off..
I’m going as Spider-Man but there’s no way to have this on Wednesday and then put the whole Spider-Man suit because there won’t be a way to show the bracelet that will be under the suit 🤨
They put our on loosely. We can get them off now and put them back on for sat/sun
nobody said these would be impossible to remove without using scissors
I don't believe you. They told everyone this several times. What do you even think the purpose of wristbands is?
Show me where it says literally anywhere that they can't be removed
I don't know if it's written anywhere but they literally were telling everyone when putting them on. It's also how wristbands have worked for every event in history that required wristbands.
Except they weren't telling anyone both times I was there yesterday so thanks buddy
I went and got the wristband, they didnt say anything besides "can you put out your arm?"

For anyone else who gets stuck in this position (like I did) I put my hand in a plastic bag and under the wristband. I then pulled the plastic bag up which also pulled the wristband off without damaging it.

How long did it take for you to get the wristbands if you mind answering
Echoing do it tomorrow - took longer to get from the 7 to Javits than to get the band itself. Won’t be the same once things begin
i went today, and it was fairly quick (less then 3 minutes). i bet if you went during the line would be really long.
Literally took my 30 seconds.
in and out of the front door within 60 seconds
