Looks like they aren't letting anyone else in line now.

The EarthCam link posted earlier... that line wrapping around Clark and down Addison... is that for Merch or is that for the 10C Will Call? Seems to be moving too slowly for Will Call (just opened at noon), but Merch is another block north of that spot. Need to pick up my tickets on a lunch break but if that's the Will Call line forget it.
One they opened the Will Call Box Office, that line moved pretty quick. It's virtually gone now..
They should hire the will call people to work at the merch booths.

Just checked out, they still had just about everything including all posters. Out of some of the stickers and patches and some shirt sizes. Showed up at 4:20, took 3 hours. Yes, they had tables for rolling posters. Had about 8 guys working checking out customers.
Took a little longer than I expected but pretty smooth, much better than 2013. And at least I'm all set and can enjoy the next 3 days.

I don't think anyone gets in line expecting a 7 hour wait. At a certain point it becomes about diminished returns, and that point is different for everyone. The longest I waited in line at Fenway was 1 hour 20 minutes. I was here for 5 days total. I'm only in Chicago for 2 days really, so I'm not spending one of those days in a line. Nothing is worth that. Well...almost nothing.
Really? After Wrigley last time and the first days of Fenway, everyone should have and a lot did expect 7 hour lines on day 1 and 2. There's a hundred posts on here saying that a week ago.
I'll be there tomorrow around 10:30-ish... hoping to be in and out in 2 hours... fingers crossed! Thinking with a second stand open (albeit a trailer) things might go quicker. Walked past the trailer today and saw them setting up tons of t-shirts...
or you can come to terms and realize you're the only one who can forgive yourself oh yeah... makes much more sense to live in the present tense...

4 hour wait (2pm-6pm). I must say, very much appreciate the work ethic of the staff at the tent. There had to be 10 guys all busting it to get people through the line. That can't be an easy job but they impressed me so bravo to them.
It was also great watching the jets of the Air & Water show practicing. One of the jets buzzed Wrigley while we were in line. Thrilling.
