    I doubt it - $75.00 and a name having to match the ticket limits scalpers. Also, there is nothing tangible to take home (other than a hangover!)

    CAN. NOT. WAIT.

    I was pissed I missed last years, you can bet my mommas nice looking butt that I will be there this year. No joke, my mother has a nice butt, you should check it out. :slight_smile:

    Should be a good time, I'll be sure to let ya'll know what I'll be wearing, so we can meet up for some after party festivities, or just talk about how badass Charzard is the entire time while drinking beer.

    Hopefully they dont make the coat check line part of the line to get in this year. Who is the brain trust who thought that was a good idea.

    Thanks for the heads up. After missing out last year, I promised myself that I'd get tickets this year. Anyone have any recommendations for which session was better last year? Did some places break out anything special for the evening session or were things basically tapped out by then?

    I went to both sessions, and they generally had everything they had from the first session in the second session. The only thing different that I recall was the King Henry was a keg the first session and bottles the second session. Oh, and as the second session was wrapping up, you got massive pours of whatever was left: some without charging you tickets. The benefit of the first session is the extra first hour (if you're a member of Whooseywhatsit Illinois Craft Beer Organization). The benefit of the second was the heavy pours near the end.
