    My wife and I are heading in to Chicago for the BCBS releases, and was curious what the scene is like for this. I have heard that the lines start pretty early. Is there bottle sharing, or is this frowned upon? Also, are there any locations that are more fun than others? Let me know, and thank you!

    Thanks for the advice y'all. I was a little bummed out that I couldn't score more than one Prop, but I got one. I also had a pretty good time hanging out with a bunch of cool beer enthusiasts. Cheers!
