This initiative not only nips their credentialing blues in the bud but also allows them more time to soak in the electrifying ambiance of the main event.
The organizers are cognizant of the inevitable delays and bottlenecks resulting from a massive influx of collectors and have taken these proactive measures to ameliorate the situation.
