    After Memphis, anyone going to any shows the rest of this tour will be lucky to get one sticker. Unfortunate. It was fun knowing you could pick up a dozen stickers & trade them to those who might not have been able to hit any shows at all but would trade for an older sticker or a Euro etc. It was also fun meeting new people & mailing out extra goodies with a sticker all over the world. I'll be sad to have to tell those counting on me I didn't get any.
    It never should have gone beyond 10 per person right from the beginning. Good luck everyone.

    They also limited posters to one per person at the outdoor tent too.

    Stickers sold out before the show started. So a 2 sticker limit still resulted in a sellout. Either everyone that went to the show got a sticker (great), or everyone that wanted one had a good chance and the traders and ebayers still ended up with the stickers they needed. The system worked it seems.

    Ok, ok... 2 is a little effin ridiculous.

    Yeah, it seems low, but when stickers sellout before show time it is tough to argue it is too low.

    this is the most entertaining thread I've read on the porch in some time....

    adults arguing first for a sticker limit, then arguing about what the number should be, and now people bitching that limit is too low...

    you are adults and these are stickers. lol....

    Don't get me wrong, I wanted one from each of the austin dates cause I went to the shows and like putting up stickers around my dartboard (to cover up the holes in the garage wall lol... and thanks Cam for hooking me up), but i think a lot of people in this thread need to take a long hard look at themselves....

    Mercy truck ran out of stickers in Memphis but there were plenty inside later. I think the system worked because I got everything I wanted in under 45 min total wait time.

    That is true... just really sucks from a trading standpoint. Or, for instance, if someone has 3 kids and wants to get one for each child.
