    Ain't nothing as delicious as hype.

    Does anyone feel like the run up to FoBAB hasn't been as boisterous as years past? Are people trying to be quiet about it in the hopes that other people forget in an attempt to better their chances at tickets?

    $68 for a ticket this year? Isn't that a substantial increase?

    Oh well, it's not like I'm not buying them anyway.

    With the understanding that more sessions + more people = the need for larger servers to handle the requests for tickets, etc., here's hoping this is the last year Ticketmaster is used for the event.

    Adding an additional 20% on top of the price of the tickets to ImBIBE members ($69.20/ticket vs. $57/ticket) is a drag.

    So the pre-sale people get theirs for $57 because of no ticketmaster fees?

    That was easy... I got 3rd session thinking it would be the session with the least demand

    It's been stated before but UIC Pavilion has the deal with Ticketmaster. Events done there must go through Ticketmaster someone mentioned.

    Paid $135 and some change for 2 tix to session 2. Easiest purchasing of tickets to a highly rated beer event I've had in a long time. Little steep for a ticket but FoBAB kicks fucking ass.

    Session 2 seems to have won as the most popular session/first to sell out.

    Surprising considering all the Pre-Sale Session 1 tickets that made that public sale pot smaller.

    Really well run sale.

    Im trying to purchase a ticket for a friend who is on a plane right now so he asked me to do him a favor. Will the ticket have a name on it? When I go to check out I was looking for the option to put his name on it but dont see it. I know it will have my billing info.
