    Got to love that 18% fees and taxes added.

    Don’t worry, everyone will get a free bottle of it. It’s just rebranded 2023 infected Rrhari with “sour cherries” added.:wink:

    Uh, yeah, I stopped to do the math trying to figure out if I accidentally added a third ticket.

    Managed to snag two regular ones without incident which was nice. Didn't even choose the group, it just went straight to Group A, which is fine since that doesn't matter anymore. I'm happy I don't have to worry about that non-sense and can just focus on grabbing the allotment before I leave so I don't need to be loss prevention while enjoying guest taps. Cheers to all of ya'll who also snagged sports.

    I get D so I ensure maximum punishment for myself every year.

    Getting some punishing D every year sounds like a fun time

    The junk fees were actually a 19% markup on the original ticket price which is a absolute outrage. 3 Floyds better give me a free beer for the extra money I spent.

    TBH, prior to last year he hasn’t gotten D in 3 years.

    How unfortunate after 3 years without D when he finally gets it, it’s the year with the infections.

    I’m sure some penicillin (that has been grown in infected bottles of Dark Lord) would be the perfect cure for an infection from D.

    Does anyone know if Reggies will be offering shuttle services this year?

    Pretty sure they do one every year. Open bottle (Tinley/Lockport) posted that they are offering a shuttle this year as well

    I’ll be celebrating my 40th by giving in to the dark lord and attending for the first time. I’ll be sure to share some quality MI brews with everyone until I run dry. I’ve researched as much as I can, but I can find nothing about parking near the fest. Where is there parking? I do not mind walking some. Thanks in advance and I hope you all get the variants you desire.

    Many of the nearby businesses sell parking in their lots. Figure to pay around $20-40 or so.

    If you take a look at Google maps near the brewery, places on Superior Ave, Valparaiso Ave, and Progress Ave are all close walking distance and should have parking available.

    It's your first time, park wherever you want, you will be 30 minutes away from death before you leave. You'll never find your car anyway so it will be safe. This is the way for all first timers.
