    Finally back home. Honestly I didn't think it was possible to do worse than 2013 Wrigley. I was wrong. However, tomorrow should be much much better since more stores will be open. Those who balked at the lines had the right idea. I think as the week goes on it will be better.

    The lines were long because of a few things:

    1) There was 3-4 people working the table. (yes just one table)
    2) They were letting in people 4-5 at a time. People took advantage of this and decided it was okay to try on every damn shirt to see if it fits. This takes awhile.
    3) People didn't know WTF they wanted.... They kinda just stood their in awe.
    4) People were buying $500 plus worth of shit. Do you really need to buy that much PJ apparel for a complete wardrobe? Do you really need 10 posters for the wall? It seemed every single person was buying this much crap. Unreal.
    5) Flippers.... enough said on this

    If you didn't go today, you didn't miss anything. As I said it should be much much better this week as it goes along. (IE more stores, more staff, etc...)


    How long were you in line, and what time did you get in line?

    Did fenways lines die down day of second show? Or about the same everyday as in ridiculously long?

    Saturday, the day between the shows, the lines were virtually non-existent.

    Can you imagine being in Chicago for the first time ever, and waiting in line for 6 hours for a particular poster, and when you step forward, it's your fucking moment, you lock eyes with the sales person and they tell you that they just sold the last poster right before you...
    My god, I would go full Michael Douglas in Falling Down.
    This stuff needs to stop.

    It happened to me today ... Depressed yes.... but I just told myself it's just a fahqin poster... (BTW I am a native of Chiraq)

    It does! It helps me eliminate any hope that I will get one on Monday.

    Thanks to all for providing updates today. I feel your pain and the struggle is real.

    Still no pic of the Nosebleed shirt?

    Probably not until Saturday after they let people inside the stadium, since the Twitter post said they would only be available at a certain section inside the stadium.

    All I'm hoping :prayer: for is to be able to pick up a BK AP when they go on sale. Can't get one at the show (not paying evilbay prices), was supposed to be there, but the trip got canceled last Thursday, because my dog broke her leg and had to have surgery. :frowning:

    Tuesday is BK's sale. Get on his email list for details
    Thanks. I already am, I've bought from him before. But things could happen, internet down, or something strange. The way the last week has gone, I won't rule out anything. I should be in Chicago, not nursing a dog with a broken leg, that cost me a lot of $$$. But, my dog is more important then any concerts or poster Hey if I get one, I do, if not, then it wasn't meant to be.

    They died down the first day. People reported going up in the late afternoon/early evening to no line and nearly everything was still in stock (not Thomas poster)
    Good news :) thx I arrive Monday and dont to deal with 6 hour lines or even 2 hour lines lol
    They did however run out of stuff on the last day, so Monday you may be SOL for the hot posters...
    Thx I figured that the best posters will be gone but that's ok I'll hopefully get all the other stuff. What other hot items sold out besides the Thomas in Fenway?
