Is it just me or does there seem to be A LOT more interest this year? I remember thinking last year I'd fly out every year regardless if I won the lottery as I ran across a handful of folks with an extra, plus sales onsite that week.

definitely having a harder time getting tix for friends
 
Hello thread. thinking of driving up tomorrow for those FoFa tix. and a **** ton of Mary.
Anyone know how long they typically last in one day? do i need to get there at opening or can i roll in around 2p and not get up before dawn, questioning every life decision i've ever made?
Yo Brooklyn homie, you got room for 2 bottles of Mary for another Brooklyn homie (from Bay Ridge?)
 
If it were me, I'd be there at open, but if you like to live on the edge.....

No guarantees, when blckout20 and I went for tickets there were enough people in line to account for them somewhere in the 10:30-11:00am window. That was day 2 of 4 though so your mileage may vary. Demand might be filled at this point, I know in past years the tickets have been fine until later in the day, but when we went we would have been out of luck if we got there after opening.

thanks for the info. it was the answer that i expected, yet feared.

shouldn't be a problem as long as you're willing to come to Clinton Hill

Welp, so much for that HF trip I've been talking so much about.
Got to work to find out the boss has a family emergency. Since I'm the only person at the bar with a food handlers license and a health department inspection due any day...
The end result is I'm never posting in this thread again!

A couple weeks ago, on a Friday, I bought mine at 4pm...but I'd get there early if I were you
 
Difference & repetition cans for onsite. Really tasty!

2013 was 300 people give or take. No idea if they've expanded the number since then
I'd wager it's a bit larger now, but I'd still guess it's somewhere in the 500 person range based on when I attended last year. Might be way off on that number though since I didn't try to actively count.
 
I still don't understand this onsite can thing.

All I know is they're $5 and delicious.

Probably the best $5 I've spent on beer in ages.

My unfounded theory is that they are canning some of their regular beers under different names to see how they do in cans and avoid people saying things like "canned what is enlightenment is worse than on draft, or canned Susan is way better than draft" etc. But by my own admission I can't think of any of their pre-existing offerings that match the descriptions of the two they canned so far. So I could be wayyyy off.
