2016 BCBS Chicago Release (Black Friday & Beyond)

Must be a group, and that one guy? Wonder how the other binnys are going to play out tonight. Imagine if they did this National Lampoons Vacation style. "Sorry folks binnys is closed", at opening.

 

I'm so stupid for accepting the fact that I need to be with family during the holidays. I so wish I was sitting in line tonight to score myself some ultra dudebro killer whale trade-bait in the morning. No, actually serious. The old lady won't let me.

 

Families come and go. But ultra dudebro killer whale trade-bait is forever.

 

Is it possible to run through the line twice at LP? Not trying to hoard, just want to at least get a couple more regulars to last the year without having to hunt around.

 

I want to know the answer to this too.

Proudly, for hoarding purposes...

...in the event all my family dies in a nuclear plant explosion before tomorrow morning.

 

Last year you could.

 

"Not trying to hoard, just trying to hoard Reg"

I'm just playing around (I get what you're saying), but I'd argue that's still hoarding.

 

We want all the stories. BC and the homeless line jumpers, fistycuffs, aliens, **** frogmen. Don't let us down, boys. It's Chicago's time to shine.

 

I've been going back and forth about waiting in line tonight at Binny's LP, but I can't seem to get motivated to spend all night in the cold for 5 bottles of beer. Especially standing here now in my warm house looking at over 200 BA stouts, porters, barleywines, etc.

I'm attending the 10am session at the Goose Island Black Friday tasting. Unfortunately, I won't get out of Binny's line in time to make it to the 10am session unless I get in line like right now.

Maybe I can still score some BCBS at 11:30am when my tasting is over, but I'm not counting on it.

For those that are camping out, stay warm and have fun!

 

Loop




About 100, people in line

 

Going to need a picture... Why can't they price this beer properly?

 

Does anyone know the deal with the tickets? Around what time do they hand them out?

 

Between 8-8:30AM per Binny's

 

Just drove by no pic, many tents

 

Sociopath here. I'm line at the first corner. Yay for my first bcbs camp out.

There are about a good amount of tents.

 

Planning on getting to Schaumburg Benny's about 530/6. Never done Binnys suburbs before. Good luck everyone!

 

Trying to decide if its worth it to hit up jewel in river forest at 5AM. My body is telling me no.

 

Yep, I did a drive-by about the same time and estimated there to be about that many. The line was just starting to curve around the building onto the W. Willow St. side.

I saw one of these out there, wonder how may were inside? http://loomisadventures.com/sites/default/files/images/gear/eskimo_fatfish_6120i_pop-up_shelter.jpg

 

How many tickets were given out at LP last year?

 

Lots. Approx 1k.
