    Just wanted to take a second to say how awesome it is that Jester King allows bottle shares at events like this. Something like Zwanze Day will obviously bring loads of people to the brewery, people who - absent a bottle share - would buy everything they drink from Jester King. They would basically have a captive audience of (never been so I'm guessing) nearly 1,000 people who would all buy beer from them. Instead of completely capitalizing on that they're willing to let us bring some of our own bottles simply because they love beer as much (probably more) as we do. That's pretty damn awesome, and something that I haven't seen in any other industry.

    Based on bottle limits I don't think I could spend more than I usually do. Have to make that 3 hr drive worth it, and a box or two of JK beer is always more than worth it.

    Well, bottle limits, trunk limits, but really mostly wife limits.

    So refrigerated truck with everything that I own? Shouldn't be a problem.

    I really hope to make it down for this. Although I have met many BA's in the DFW area, many of y'all to the south of me I haven't met. It would be an honor to finally do so at such a memorable event.

    Is there some bottle share spreadsheet I missed out on, or is it a true free for all format on what to bring?

    Does anyone know if the glassware will be available Friday? I'm going to be in town for Mondo Con/Fantastic Fest(nerd) and can't make it to Zwanze Day.

    Today? :wink:

    We will select 450 names at random. On Monday, September 15th, you will be notified via e-mail whether or not your name was drawn to receive a ticket, and if so, what session you will attend.

    I wish they would send an email regardless of whether you get drawn at all. There's a possibility that none of us got drawn and we wouldn't know until they hop on here and tell us.

    One more reason you guys are awesome. I would have given up hours ago, but that's because I'm really lazy

    Any way we can find out how many people entered the drawing? I'm curious as to how lucky or unlucky I end up being. Thanks!
