This will be my first time attending Darkness Day. Would arriving at 7am saturday morning be too late to get a wristband? I am flying in late friday night and I am not too sure what time is considered "Too Late" to get a wrist band. I think they said they were handing out 1200 wrist bands. Thoughts and advice would be appreciated.
Throwing this out there too, if anyone needs a ride in the chicagoland area I live in dekalb and will be driving
You might want to head over to the Midwest thread where Darkness Day is being discussed. Overall, I think showing up at 7:00 would be too late to get one of the wristbands. They were gone by 7:15-7:30 last year and I imagine more people will showing up this year. They come around in the morning and hand out the wristbands to those waiting in line.
its usually pretty early, like 8 or 9. get there the night before and come check out all the tasting tables, bring something fun if you can.
Anytime after 7 would probably be cutting it too close for comfort if last year was any indication of the growing crowd. My crew didn't get there until 5:45 or so and I was pretty concerned we were going to be left behind. Alas, I was gladly mistaken.
