    Speaking of which, Bolt Cutter is drinking really well right now. Every bottle I've had has been better than the last.

    Is it bad that I totally believed this until I got to the last sentence?

    Yeah, all of this is true. I was mostly remarking based on the 4/5 written reviews that made it sound undrinkably sweet.

    Unfortunately, I was one of those 20 people. About 5 away when they said they were sold out...definitely disappointed, but what ya gonna do.

    My thoughts exactly, I don't understand why so many people give Bolt Cutter a bad rap on these threads

    Potential issue I haven't seen anyone mention. What do you guys think?

    Scenario: Shut out of online tickets. Buddy nabbed GA tickets with me as guest. Same buddy ended up getting an in-person ticket at the pub this weekend.

    Question: Do you think it'll be a problem still getting me in as the guest? Do you think he can now get in 2 guests because he is using the bottle allotment ticket for himself? In both of these scenarios we'd all be entering the event at the same time.

    He can use all 3 tickets at the same time. 3 Tickets = 3 people.

    I'd assume he could only get one guest in for GA unless both GA tickets look exactly the same. However, I'm pretty sure FFF has explicitly stated 1 guest ticket per person and 1 normal ticket per person.

    I'm not sure about that. If both the GA ticket and his Group A ticket that he snagged from the brewpub have his name on it, then I'm not sure this entitles him to bring 2 other people.

    All 3 tickets have his name on it.

    Just have him walk in with you then exit and reenter with his Group A ticket.

    It doesn't matter. I used 4 tickets last year, all with my name on it. Both the event organizer and Three Floyds don't care.

    I wouldn't bank on it this year as the tickets are color coded. Also, why can't everyone just follow the DLD rules set by FFF?

    I don't know why color coding would matter at all? Last year, an event organizer would check an ID against the ticket and for each person receiving a wrist band to make sure they were 21 and up. That's it.

    I emailed Three Floyds about this exact issue last year and they didn't care.

    Color coding would only matter if you were in the bottle line, which is after you receive your wrist band.

    So if the OP's friend has 2 GA Tickets with the friend's name on them that entitle him to bring one guest (the OP), and also has 1 Group A ticket with his name on it that does NOT entitle him to bring a guest, how is he going to bring 2 guests? I'm so confused.
