Just left after drinking in the garden and they are still not to the magic 892 number FYI
 
Thanks. So it's possible to avoid the line and still get all your BBPt5. Good to know.

Yeah, I have some friends who waited 12 hours, and some friends who waited 1 hour. The substantive difference between the 2? Exactly 4 bottles of DBPT5. A much younger version of me would probably think that's worth it. The current version of me isn't so sure.
 
Is there anything to prevent people from going and getting a second number? Gotta believe there's folks doing that.

Also, more stories from last night! What were the drunk idiots doing? Lots of line cutting?

I don't think there'd be anything stopping that other than the remarkable inconvenience. You'd have to be one of the first people in line to make that work, I'd think, which would mean you got there sometime before 10 last night, and by the time you were able to pick up your second order, it'll probably be about that same time tonight. But, if you've got the stamina...

Anyway, yeah, I wanna hear the FIB brawl stories, version 2014!
 
Got there a little before 5 last night, was number 41. Got there early not because of the potential for missing out on allocations, but to take in the (arguably) best part of the event with the bottle share. Folks who got there at 8 PM were 250 in line, with a steady stream following after that.

Fairly well run line this year. The contracted security service I believe really helped to make this less of a cluster than it could have been. Still rampant line cutting all over, even up front. When I arrived I counted anywhere from 25-30 people ahead of me.

Looking forward to a great party.

I've been watching it on and off today and I STILL haven't seen anybody say they handed out the last one yet, so I suppose it's possible they didn't sell out? If memory serves, they shut that down at 4:00, so I guess we'll see!
