誰說博物館不好玩.... - CSI

這是BTA上的網友Chadini分享的心得，她說雖然展覽有規定不能照相，
但是她問過館方之後，他們還是答應她可以照相。
所以準備去參觀的板友或許也可以先試著問問看吧……

This exhibit was WAY better than I ever thought it could be. It was
incredibly interactive and it looked like the cast was really having fun with
it. If anyone is planning on attending, get there early. My ticket was for 10
am, the museum opens at 9:30. I was there at 9 and there was already a line.
While you are waiting in line, they show a video about the current exhibits,
CSI included. MH was precious. I don't usually use that word, but she was so
excited about the exhibit (it looked like they did the interviews at the VIP
opening) and she was downright cute and giddy. WP was great as well as JF. GE
was also making his comments. I did the 2nd crime scene and I also snuck into
other areas (it wasn't too tough). I spent about an hour and a half in there.
The detail was fantastic. Not only are you walked through a crime scene, but
you can go to a "trace lab" and hear insights from cast (in character) and
actual forensics experts. This is no fluffy piece of museum crap. This was
the real deal. I have a new found respect for Hodges (very very funny). All
of the terminals that are in my pictures at the different stations provide
more info about your case. At the end, you have to "present" your case to
Grissom. Very cool.

The other thing that was fanfreakintastic was the miniatures. Which, by the
way got very smudgy very quickly (but if you tell a museum employee they
clean them up), because they are not a part of the CSI exhibit (which costs
extra), but a part of the regular collection (at least for now). I thought
that this part was interesting compared to the CSI Experience, because with
the miniatures, you have a lot of hardcores (like us) and then people that
have no idea what they are looking at (some woman kept yelling, asking why
there was some guys office in the Exhibit- Grissom's office) and there were
also kids licking the case (ok, one kid, but as far as I was concerned it was
a hundred, eeewww) and running around. Inside the exhibit, there were some
people having fun with it and some people that were freaking out because they
got a clue wrong. All in all, I thought that the attention to detail was like
nothing I have ever seen before in any sort of Museum Exhibit. Maybe I don't
get out much, but this was great. Along the ceiling, they had certificates
and diplomas for the characters, Grissom's office, the assignment board (from
season 1?), just neat stuff. I think anyone would enjoy this, not just CSI
fans. Because they did such a great job of entertwining the show's characters
as your leads and actual forensic experts, anyone could get into it. I took a
ton of pictures of the exhibit and the miniatures (maybe too many of the
miniatures) and all that stuff knowing that some folks might never get to see
it.

A couple helpful hints if you are going to be going:

The Museum is hot as blazes so dress accordingly. At one point I thought I
might be having a heart attack (I of course stayed)
When you get to Chicago, if you are not driving (which I suggest you not
do...ugh), you can get a day pass from CTA (public transport, El and buses)
for $5. They offer them at kiosks.
The Museum is a little out of the way so they lost money on me today, between
museum, shopping, etc.
Get there early
Be careful with your pictures. The lighting is weird, so you will probably
have to go without a flash. No flash for the miniatures. Bad bad idea. I had
to retake most of those.
Stay and check out the rest of the Museum, not only is it the largest of its
kind in the Western hemisphere, but the staff was really nice and helpful
If you can hook up with someone local, there are tickets floating around that
are two for one.

Way worth the trip.
