    With a 70% chance of rain on Saturday, does anybody have good suggestions for keeping your feet dry? If it rains the grounds are gonna be muddy as hell and I don't have any boots.

    We were group E last year and got through the line around 7:30, but I'm not sure when we got in line. If I remember it was just over an hour wait. Then your DD can pick you up, drop you off at the hotel and order pizza, then go back to the fest to get your cell phone which fell out of your pocket. That's how I do.

    That's what I meant. Brain isn't fully functioning today. Gotta lay off those 18% stouts on a weekday.

    Tuesday breakfast is the perfect time for DFH WWS. Pairs great with biscuits and gravy.

    Accuweather.com says 5%
    Weather.com says 70%

    As I mentioned before, these are all models and have no bearing on what will actually happen, just a guess based on historical data. You wont get an accurate forecast until Thursday or Friday morning.

    I am guessing if it rains the sharing tents will be crazy

    Speculation, Hypothetically if my friend had a guest ticket in a different group couldn't i just jump in as his guest and then go to my group later with my own ticket?

    I opened a bottle of 2012 VBDL last year. Was going to bring my 2012 Bourbon Barrel Aged Dark Lord this year but changed my mind. Thinking about bringing KBS, but seems like so is everyone else.

    Instead bring an Imperial Tanilla Porter from Knee Deep and Central Waters 16 BA Imp. stout.

    I wonder if his friends guest ticket would be accepted if it wasn't scanned in at the entrance?
