    This has nothing to do with your post. I just like your avatar.

    Yeah paying attention pretty good. They wrote what 1 ticket and then everyone kept drinking. Sounds like the people in here care a lot more than the popo

    Cop misspelled "container". Dude might have an opening to get off without a fine. :rolling_eyes:

    The $ for gas and the aggravation of the drive up from PA might be payment enough. :wink:

    well this couldn't have went worse. I waited an hour and a half this morning til 10:15, got frustrated and left. Went back at 12:15 and waited another hour until they ran out. Fun day of waiting in line.

    I live on long island and decided to drive up to tree house instead of waiting for hours on line for other half and most likely not getting what I wanted. I got to tree house at 10, they opened a half an hour early and I was out of there by 11 with my cans, bottles and growlers and home by 1:30.

    Well overall it was a bizarre day. Almost the whole line was drinking but no one seemed to care. Even when the police showed up no one actually put anything away. So they wrote one ticket told other half to fix this and left. Then a guy brought a bottle of de garde into the brewery garage at 9:55, 30 seconds after the cops left and pours his buddy a red solo cup full. I was impressed by the amount of proper glass wear and whales hahaha.

    Positives was once line started it moved. I was at the end of the block and out by 10:20. They were moving quick today. But going forward it looks like other half may start to get some heat from the authorities about this. I wouldn't be surprised if the attitudes of customers stay the same that a release gets shut down. One guy infront of me left McDonald's bags, bottles and cups all over the side walk claiming he would be back to get them. Once we all started getting on him he finally picked his stuff up. Amazing what people think is acceptable

    Got in line at 10:30, two and a half blocks away, no wristbands left. Figured we'd try our luck. By 12:30 had reached a little over a half block away with maybe 60 people ahead of us and they announced they ran out of ACE and GD. Stayed in line another half hour for the forever and the rum barrel. Definitely disappointing. Will probably give up on these releases until the supply can match the demand.

    Street Green, All Mosaic Everything and their new unannounced treehouse collaboration. Up to a case of each per person. Heard line already started. Those who got shut out today just stayed on line for next release. Whalezcrew has a beer tent set up with proper glassware for all. Two week mega share just started
