    Chances are mighty good that a few weeks before the Invitational, folks will have stuff come up and will want to dump their tickets. Never fails.

    Got a pair of VIP tickets during the public sale. There was a t-shirt included. I got VIP a few years back and the first hour is nice because you can hit all the hype stuff early with no lines, watch the running of the neckbeards then hit all the below the radar stuff rest of the day.

    Catch me poolside at the Adelaide on Friday

    My thinking on VIP is there are so many great shares Fri & Sat, I've always passed on it.

    During the festival there are so many great breweries with short lines, you can spend the day on those lines, getting many more pours, while others park on the long lines.

    A case in point, there was virtually no line for Private Press last year, all day.

    Looking forward to what is always an enjoyable weekend.

    See people looking for tix on Facebook. There are separate pages on FB for Firestone Walker and FW Invitational.

    Found the FB page for FWIBF!. Will keep my eyes on the page and see if someone will release the ticket when the event is coming close.

    Never stayed there. But I believe people say the Adelaide is best. I know ten years ago they’d have a bottle share the night before the festival. I would assume it’s already fully booked though.

    Adelaide or Best Western have the best bottle shares. If you're a Marriott ***** like myself the Courtyard is about 1.5 miles away and usually has a decent share. I end up at the Adelaide most years for ease during the share but also it's a 5 minute hangover walk to the event center the next morning.

    Soooo maybe I’m just a jaded SOB but if one was looking to buy secondary market tickets would you do it from someone whose first post on the site is about having tickets to sell? :thinking_face:

    Now know of several other available GA tickets (due to their participation and pouring at the event ). So if anyone is short ticket(s) message me and I'll connect you with them. 30 more days until the best (beer) fest

    I am looking to sell a pair of GA tix at face value to the greatest beer festival in the history of beerkind. My bonafides are gosh darn impeccable.
