    Serious question, does that mean every single transaction requires a voucher? You can't just pay cash once you run out of your original allocation?

    Yep, voucher system only this year for food & taps. Kinda sucks if you ask me but it is what it is.
    ETA: Just noticed it mentions FFF food so not sure if Donermen is cash or vouchers. I'd guess cash (?)

    Thumbs down, never saw this part of the FAQ until now...figured I knew what a voucher was why the fuck would I need to read it. :flushed:

    So you have to go stand in a line to buy tickets in order to be able to go stand in a different line to continue to be able to acquire the things you want?

    This is officially the first thing I've actually been annoyed by in this entire thread. You may mark this significant event down in the captain's log.

    I haven't been since 2013. My backpack cooler is 13 X 20 X 8, which is bigger than the dimensions they listed. How strict are they? I probably don't really need it given the weather, but thought I'd check.

    They didn't really care last year. I think they put it in a milk crate if it fits your good. Doesn't matter if it is taller than the crate.

    Guys (and girls), I need your votes on what to eliminate from my shares and what to keep. I just finished packing my suitcase and realized it's over the 50lb check-in weight. Let me know what can be easily obtained there so I don't have to bring them.

    1x Grimm Tesseract
    1x Grimm Psychokinesis
    1x Other Half City Slickers
    1x Other Half Lime Green Galaxies
    1x Plan Bee Bartlett
    1x Captain Lawrence Barrel Select Gold

    Non-NY Local

    Treehouse (1x of each): Julius, Sap, and Bear
    1x Epic Brewing Big Bad Baptist (Batch #66)
    1x BCBS Coffee (thought it'd be fun to test if it's infected together)
    2x Weyerbacher SMS
    1x Westbrook/Stillwater Gose Gone Wild

    First time to DLD, not part of any groups, so just pulled together something that I thought would be fun to share :slight_smile:

    Don't sweat it. Just pick what comes to mind. It's not about availability or rarity, but about shareability (is it even a word? hey, it rhymes though :wink:). Bring some proper clothing for the weather and most importantly, have fun. Cheers!
