    If you're already saying no, then you don't qualify for the people who complain about the potential cost increase when the announcement is made in the next month. :wink:

    I doubt that construction will interfere wit this years Festival, but what about next year? Is it possible that they have a year without DarkLord day? What would all the posters on this board do?? Would they still make DarkLord and then in 2020 everyone gets 4 extra bottles of vintage?

    The Dark Lord will instruct us to convene in Munster in 2019 regardless of any construction.

    That is the kind of exceptional optimism that will damn us all, Accuweather!

    Uhoh! Looks like FFF is going to have to switch from the traditional 10W30 to a 5W30 Dark Lord for the warm weather....

    I'm guessing between $200 and $225.

    It will be interesting to see how they plan on hosting future DLDs after the expansion. I only looked at the overlay for a minute but it doesn't look like there's much room, lots of trees and such. At this point who knows? I'd like to think they took into consideration the annual festival that brings them in a sh*t ton of money.

    That's funny, I looked at that same map and didn't see many trees...just lots of urinals.

    Define “shit ton”. Also does anyone have a good estimate how much they make each year off DLD?

    I mean they bring in almost 2 million in ticket sales alone. Add to that drafts / merch.

    I don't know their costs but I am pretty sure they make a healthy amount.

    In older interviews they have said that they would wait for DLD so that they could afford to upgrade equipment, order more fermenters etc..

    I've always wondered which is bigger, a shit ton or a crap load?
