    From the FWIBF FB page:

    "We knew tickets would sell fast... but not that fast. To those who secured tickets, we cannot wait to celebrate with you in May! To those who were placed on the waitlist, please check your emails within the next hour to see if Eventbrite has contacted you! If you receive an email, you have ONE HOUR to purchase the tickets, NO EXCEPTIONS! To those who did not get tickets and are very angry with us, we’re sorry and we’re equally as sad you won’t be there in May. Please enjoy a beer today and know it’s “just” a beer festival and hopefully you’ll join us next year."

    Looking for 3 tickets for my buddy @theperk, his girlfriend and myself. Anybody willing to hook us up would be greatly appreciated and we'd be deeply indebted. Missed it for the second year and can't handle swallowing that pill again. Haha

    I love the entitlement on the FW and FWIBF Facebook pages - bunch of whiners. See everyone there! Fourth year for me.

    People are even complaining about the hotel room prices.

    Was just perusing those. Some were saying they will "never attend another event". Perfect, more opportunities for tickets for the rest of us! :grinning:

    I was reading those posts too. People are acting like they aren't going to be able to attend the birth of their child or something. It's not that serious. I didn't get a ticket, didn't try actually, but I'm not the least bit concerned about it. I just see it as more money I can put towards other things in life.

    Goes to show how insane the craft beer community has become.

    I got two tickets, none of my friends did, though. Currently have a room at Motel 6, but damn, another reason to move the event date would be to reduce room costs. Might be selling my tickets if none of my local friends find some. Especially if people scare me out of them with tales of long lines. Hahaha Just not up for that any more.

    So glad we booked our rooms in November. A friend couldn't get in the Adelaide with us and is paying $260 a night down the street. Supply and demand...

    I got shut out, but my gf got 2 tickets, so I'm good. I did however get on the wait list and received an email around 10am from Eventbrite allowing my to purchase 1 ticket.

    After reading some reviews on the FW Facebook page, apparently if you contact Eventbrite about getting 2 tickets, they will send you a link for another ticket.
