    Called Bay Area specs last night just before closing and was told they still had some.. So drove 30 minutes to be there at 10 this morning and of course that person was wrong. Good times!

    I was actually there talking with you guys for a while. I was the mexican dude with the Maroon polo hiding from the camera lol. Talked to Matt, Danzborin and a few others but I didn't want to introduce myself as Azzy and start a riot lol

    For CLear Lake peeps.... it doesn't seem like our area HEB's have received it yet.. so hopefully we'll still get a chance.

    Was anyone there or still in line when they ran out of BCBS? How many people got shut out?

    Getting there early was actually pretty fun, hopefully next year they cut the line off so people don't wait for nothing... I'm bringing a 50 gallon drum to make a "Politically Correct Domicile Lacking Individual" fire... apparently calling it a "hobo fire" gave the wrong connotation.

    The line kept growing and was still almost out the door when they ran out, but I think everyone who got there by 10 got some. I know Joey kept asking people what time they got there to gauge things, and I heard a response of "9:30" about 20 or 30 people before he ran out.

    Man that sucks, every time I call that store I seem to get someone who doesn't know anything about beer. If you don't score some hit me up, I have a couple bottles for you.

    Thanks bro.. I'll keep trying to score though so you can hopefully keep all of that deliciousness to yourself. I'm hoping our HEB's will get some.

    A few of the HEBs around town have said they didn't get their shipment Friday and would be releasing it Monday. Hubbel & Hudson in the Woodlands got a few cases and they're releasing them Tuesday.
