    You don't remember having fun in lines? Man, you must have killed a lot of brains cells over the last decade...

    They will actually circle back and get a double allotment just like last year.
    Also last year I walked into the bar area grabbed a couple beers then when out and waited in line. I was way in the back so I had plenty of time to finish my beers before grabbing my bottles and pour of nilerzzzz.

    It not selling out and some people getting double allotment wouldn't surprise me.

    I had heard from a few people that got VIP tickets that they were going to the dinner and were going to put out their chairs prior to going to dinner. So a pretty good chance that the front of the line will be people who already have VIP bottles and are hanging out there.

    I would guess there are 250-275 people in line now. Lots of tents and beer sharing going down.

    Just woke up from a nap and did a little walk. I am gonna say we are approaching 350-400. That may be a conservative estimate. When I got in line at 9pm, i figured I was in that 250 range. Probably some line budging going down per usual...

    I may have been wrong on this one. Apparently the line is like 500 deep. I turned around a half hour into my drive to salvage the rest of the day.

    The guy making rounds just quoted 450. They’re about to handout wristbands.
