    This x 1000000. It's not like Marshall is the ghetto.... you're not going to get jumped. Well, as long as you don't cut in line anyway.

    The Livery line was nothing compared to what you'll experience at Dark Horse. We were 104 and 105 last year I believe... I think we got to the front at around 6:30?

    I agree. But at ~$130 a case, and will most likely be anywhere from $15-$20 for things like Monster and Militiagin (i think BBL Perk, and KotF were $17 last year?), some people are a bit weary of carrying upwards of $300 around in their pocket.

    That all being said. Maybe think about still bringing some cash. Last year they were doing tickets for beers, and i don't think (i could be wrong) they were running credit cards for the beer tickets.

    They were not accepting cards for tickets, but they did have an ATM on Site IIRC.

    I'm doing cash the whole way. If someone jumps me at DH to steal my stuff, then we got some serious BA issues.

    whats the expected/typical bottle count on the non BA PT5 & 4E stuff?

    And I guess getting back to chicago by 8 to celebrate my mothers birthday might be a stretch. Sorry mom, I know you gave birth, raised me and put me through college but have you had BA PT5?

    There's no info yet on format or anything for the other bottles. I can't imagine they'd put Monster in 750s though.

    Typical limit on 750s is 2 bottles and there were about 150-200ish of each last year if I remember right.

    There is no typical bottle count with anything at this release. I wouldn't trust any bottle count not confirmed by Dark Horse.

    I'm pretty sure there were like 152 and 162 or 142 and 152, something like that. I remember thinking that that first 75 or 80 people had a shot at bottles (if everyone bought their allotment.)
    I thought I had read something earlier (maybe it was a guess or my imagination), saying that BA Monster 29 and Monster 29 were going to be in 12 oz. bottles...We shall see.

    12 oz. bottles would be so great. (with maybe a 4 bottle limit instead of 2). Then I can drink one by myself and send a couple to friends.

    Confirmed it will be 12oz bottles of Monster 29 and BBL Monster 29.

    It would be terrific if this trend catches on. Taking down an entire bomber of high ABV product is just too much to ask (most of the time) for one person.

    I bet those guys at Dark Horse are smoking a shit load of dope and waxing bottles for the next week.

    I agree. People will probably complain when it is $10 a 12 oz, but happily pay $25 for a 750.

    Most importantly, it also means more people have access to it by virtue of being able to produce a higher quantity of bottles in the smaller format.

    Gotta respect that...2 glasses of BA Monster before I even get my bottles means my budget is out the window...

    Has any pricing for the bottle sales been released yet?

    True. But with my cash back Amex card, I get 5% cash back on my purchase because Dark Horse is classified as an eatery. Y'all can wait.
