    Have this mike piazza feeling about him where one day I just open up ESPN and see that he is (still) a met.

    Regardless, where we're going we won't need cespedes!

    Well it's a beer store and a bar. My ideal situation would be a combo of the way Grimm releases beer and other half. A week before the canned release at the brewery they send cans to union to distribute much like Grimm does. It would alleviate the hype for both releases. people from out of town can line up hours early for the brewery release and I can just grab a few cans as I get out of work. Simple as pie.

    But can you really do this for Grimm releases? For all of the Grimm can releases you basically have to leave work and get to the store within an hour or two of the cans arriving to actually get it. This would only work if there were timed drops or something.

    If you can stroll out of work and leisurely pick up Grimm cans, we need to hang out.

    Thanks for posting these updates, I was just about to get on the subway but decided to turn back. Kind of a bummer that this is what it's become.

    Line is about 1/4 down the third block, but the guy handing out bracelets just said everyone in line currently should get the full allotment of everything, including Orbit. Pretty organized.

    Wait, what? 700 allocations? Minnesota location has me skeptical, but I want to believe.
