    hopefully you're either kidding or really have left

    no one is gloating... i'm trying to have an organized discussion

    All the vic titles are just overwhelming. This thread is no different than the 100 that are already on the Porch....where Pearl Jam is supposed to be discussed. I personally wish all Vic threads will get merged into one thread that lives on the Given to Fly forum.

    It is just probably a bad few days to be on The Pit. :)


    overwhelming? finding out your dog needs to be put down is overwhelming... the crap on the porch is just annoying

    and this thread is trying to be different.. i just wanted to see who was in... not who was looking for a ticket

    i too wish there was more organization to the vic threads... but lets be real... that's not the way of the pit

    anyway... kumbaya

    im in. my gf is moving in with me, that will be her first night in town as a chicago resident in our new apartment. quite an intro to the city eh? we'll be in line as soon as her dad leaves to head back to ohio, ready to work off an order of weiner circle cheese fries :)

    *edit* it will also be her first pearl jam show. she's pretty excited!

    I'm excited for everyone that got tickets. Mostly because you're going to a city that I am very homesick for right now! :) I guess my jealousy is multifaceted...lol. ;)

    I, by the power of Grayskull, scored a pair. Of course, now I have to find a way out to the show from Colorado. Pearl Jam...always an adventure.

    I got tix. Dont know how but am sooo grateful. The girl I work with was trying on her computer as was I and she is clicking and says "so do I click on this button thats says buy?" I am like "yeah" Long story short got booted a couple times, then she is like "it's saying I cant add more then 1 pair to your cart, thats when I realized they were in my cart. A heart attack later they were in my profile. I so owe her breakfast for the next month.

    The weirdest part is her last name is Ledbetter. Weird right?

    Helen too I see, we must have a line party!
  • my2handsmy2hands Posts: 17,117
    i am in. and i am fucking pumped about it!!!

    not to mention i get to see the phillies smack the cubs around that day in wrigley while people wait in line for 9 hours to sit 12 feet closer than me :rolleyes:
  • MrFadedGloryMrFadedGlory Posts: 207
    There is nothing else that would have me excited about driving 6 hours, waiting in line for ? hours (I don't even know when they're going on), driving back home through the night 6 more hours to hand our babysitter $150 and then be up all day with my kids as well...and they're young (4 and 1 1/2) so it's pretty hands on.

    This will be one for the ages...glad I scored tix, but if I had not I certainly wouldn't voice my disappointment like I was Violet Beauregarde or something...that is just sad and reflects some true colors in a very hypocritical light if you're a PJ fan...some words when spoken, can't be taken back.

    My wife and I will be there! She scored the tickets- Same deal where she had a message "Can't have more than one set in the shopping cart..."
    She got them right at 1 sharp... my other friend never even saw the ticket icon.
    Luck of the draw totally!

    Well, have fun you all...I am off to catch my flight.
    You will see me outside the line waiting for some luck with my bf. I mean you guys need some entertaining while waiting so long, don't you...

    And you'll be able to recognize me! (thsat girl with kushikushun on her T...yep that would be me).
    Why not be mediocre and be the best at it that you can be?

    i am getting there right after the cubs game around 4 pm...

    heard rumors of noon and such ... too early for me

    i'm only in town for a day so I'll try do something in that area... definitely hitting the pierogi factory... being the adopted polack that i am

    then at some point i'm going to a bar for a few and probably heading over to get to the vic around 6-6:30... i'll stroll by before and see if i can get my bracelet

    way i figure there's only about 800 of us who will be on the floor ... i'm totally fine being 20th row instead of spending 6 hours in line to be 4th row
