    Yeah, I'm not sure where 8pm came from. Started at 11 for sure.

    I'm pretty sure this is going to be a mega lame release. I don't know why you guys are even hyping it up. If I were you, I'd totally just save my money and get a good night sleep.

    You can totally read about how terrible of a release this was the following week.

    yeah, 11pm last time and the only reason it started that early was that some of us were a bit tired of being at the bar since 3-4pm and needed to take a break...

    By pulled pork you mean pulling pork off the face of the pig with your teeth right?

    I made the mistake of skipping the last one. My girlfriend got sick so I had no mule, and didn't want to go alone. Going this September, no matter what.

    Yes, some people lined up just after 11pm at the last release but the majority of people arrived in the early morning hours on Saturday. Almost all of them got full allotments and some bottles were left over after the release. Ironically some of the earlier people missed out on getting bottles because they were blacked out or sick/puking from the bottle share starting at 11pm and lasting so long

    Only 3.5 hours from Columbus...I might actually try and make it out there!

    I might be hitting the release and game as well, plans are still coming together. If it happens we'll need to grab a beer together at some point.

    There was actually a couple of people who started a line much earlier than 8pm at the last release.

    Not true. I was 2nd in line at the release. It started at 11.

    There was a guy out there waiting much, much earlier than that. I was 11th in line, and was out there at 10:30.

    At some point you have to ask yourself, "Does it really matter?"

    It kind of does. If you have one jackass starting the line mid-day the day before it freaks the shit out of everyone else, and you end up with a line starting WAY earlier than it needs to. That's basically what happened here.

    I was worried a little about the line last time. I was excited to see that when I got there (around 8pm if I remember correctly) there was no line. I proceeded inside to start drinking some Cowbell. I kept periodicly checking outside to see who the brave soul would be to start the line. It was around 11 when everyone started making their way out there. I was #27 I believe. I thought everything worked out well as there were only roughly 50 of us or so to start with the bottleshare. People continued to trickle in throughout the night, and I dont think I heard of anyone getting shutout who showed up by morning. Like it was said above, does any of this talk of a line really matter? Just show up if there is a line get in it, if there is not one dont start it.
