   You apply to go... then they pick so many for each stop.  If you get   
   tickets, you bring two items for each ticket, so that's up to four   
   items.  When you get there, you stand in a line according to your time   
   and they have someone looking at items in passing to spot potential   
   cool stuff, from there, they sort you out by item and you go to   
   tables.  Once at the table, if the person evaluating the item thinks   
   you got something good they call a producer over who does a quick look   
   and gets your story (and makes sure you're not a flake or something).   
   If you pass, you go to the "green room" which is just a curtained off   
   area and they bring you out and film.  That's what I was told anyway.
