    There's people sharing bottles at all times between 3:30pm today and the end of the event tomorrow. When you get there in the morning a lot of people will be sleeping but there will definitely be some sharing going on by crazy fuckers who happen to be awake that early (I may be one of them. We'll see).

    I've never been. What are overnight restroom facilities like? None? Inside the brewery? Portas only near the building? Portas up and down the line? I assume that with all the beer being consumed over the night hours that there is some provision.

    If memory serves, there are typically two clusters of porta-johns. One is near the front of the lines, the other near the middle/rear. There will always be a line when you need to use it most...

    Thanks. I was hoping this would be the case. Now to hope for relatively easy parking between 11pm and 12am.

    Of course! It reads, "Steve Mc-Kenn-a'd: inebriated to the point where one loses control of one's actions. Examples include: drunk dialing, streaking, etc. "Sorry I hit on your mom last night, I was Steve McKenna'd"

    Thanks for all that kind words and offers of assistance. And by that I mean none. Have a good time and watch the drinking and driving. There are families in the road. CHEERS!!

    You do know that with minimal work, you will be able to get it in store starting next week, right?

    It sucks that you hurt yourself, and I am sorry. I think everyone is excited about the event and also we are not sure if this event will be more of a crapshoot or not than previous years. But that comment with the attitude is not called for. Just chill, between it being in stores and someone probably willing to hook you up after tomorrow, you will be fine.

    Dude is a total dbag, my dad has the opening night print with a signature from everyone person on the inaugaral team. The only one who didnt sign it was Steve McKenna. My dad tried to get him to sign it when he was with the Penguins. He just ignored him and my dad yelled out, "You aren't even good." He laughed and walked away...

    Just curious, you thought "don't show up before 3:30" meant what, exactly?

    EDIT: I guess I shouldn't assume everybody knew not to arrive before 3:30. Sorry.

    I wonder if you guys are talking about the same Steve McKenna. Google suggests one is something of a professional drinker, the other a former professional hockey player.

    I believe the shirt is in reference to the drinker. He's the friend of the host of 3 Sheets. Watch the Bourbon episode for a better explanation
