    That just makes you a line cutter then.

    First, it is my opinion people are worried way too much about this line thing. If done correctly, darkness day should be 99% beer drinking and 1% worrying about being in a line.

    Second, anyone have any grill space for some meats at night and some breakfast burritos in the morning? FT: Meats and breakfast burritos. Also beer of course. Otherwise, I'm going to buy a $20 piece of junk grill on Amazon.

    We should be able to accomodate you in the grill space department. ISO: Meat and breakfast burritos.

    Raise your hand if you understand the difference between sleeping in a tent two blocks away & going to a hotel! You do? Good on you!

    A little over four days away. Can't wait to see a bunch of familiar faces (even those of you I despise) & see a bunch of new ones that I won't remember on Saturday morning. Hoping to make it past 9:30 PM this year & avoid the mass of "WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU" texts I woke up to last year. Love you all.

    I swung by earlier and drew a "D" in the sand to hold my place in line. I won't be there for the bottle share, but will probably show up around 9am.
    Don't anybody stand on my "D".

    I think I speak for MOST, no one wants to see your "D". :grinning:

    Then I hope I can trust you not to stand on it.

    I just showed up to claim my spot. Glad you gave me a heads up about your "D", it was so small I almost missed it!

    So darkness day is 6 bottles this year...does anyone know is that regular and barrel aged (ex. 3 of BA and 3 of Reg) or just regular darkness or just barrel aged darkness? I remember seeing labels for both.

    Question... What time do they usually go around and hand out wristbands?

    Last year was about 8:00 for the 21+ bands and 9:00 for the Darkness bands.

    Thanks.

    This sucks. I have been planning on going to DD for months now, and now I have a contractor coming to work on my house at 9AM on Saturday. I need to be here when he starts to go over the work to do. He says this is the only time and date that works, and the work needs to get done before winter. I'm screwed, it seems.

    I'm curious about availability also. Based purely on what they list, it sounds like regular Darkness (unless its a mistake). Maybe all the BA stuff is for distribution only?
