​This year's BlizzCon is August 21 and 22 at the Anaheim Convention Center, where every installment of the Blizzard Entertainment hullabaloo has been held. It's a celebration of the Irvine-based computer game company's three major, incredibly popular franchises--Warcraft, Starcraft and Diablo--and it's been totally sold out for months.

But the Laguna Art Museum, who are currently hosting the World of Warcraft-themed WoW: Emergent Media Phenomenon exhibit, might be able to help you out. If you check out that exhibit between now and August 8 (check out = purchase admission to), you'll be automatically entered into a raffle for two tickets. Plus, the exhibit itself is probably worth checking out, especially if you never thought the worlds of high art and massively multiplayer online role-playing games would ever neatly mesh. (Insert joke about the unlikeliness of WoW fanatics leaving the house long enough to go to either the exhibit or BlizzCon.)
