    Line status update: as of 10:24 a.m., the main line que back to the street barricades is filled. If you are headed this way, bring sunscreen, chair, umbrella, etc., because it's bright and sunny and hot, no chance of shade any time in the foreseeable future.

    Can confirm. I’m currently in the last row before the line that stretches up the street.

    So, inquiring minds want to know. Those getting in line now won’t get a Thomas. What are you all buying that wasn’t/isn’t available in a 30 minute line prior to the show?

    Thomas was pretty easy to get inside the venue... though lines were long well into the night. I can’t fathom standing in line for merch and missing half a show. Crazy. 

    Get in line at 5:30 when Gates open, hit merch when walking in and you will get anything you want..

    where was the merch inside? Entered 10c reserved line in the outfield and only saw the tent on the field which didn’t have posters. Between now and end of show tomorrow I can’t figure out the best chance to go and get what I want

    not true. Was in line before 5. Centerfield. Went in right to merch all posters gone except the brain when I got to stand in about 45 minutes I think (I really don’t remember how long).

    thiught it was crap to have such a small allotment at that entrance

    I went to one of the outside stands after the show, maybe 15 minute wait. Only things I noticed completely sold out were Thomas poster, stickers and the Chicago t-shirt with the away logo on back (sold out while in line). Not all sizes available in other clothing, but got what I wanted.

    I entered the left field reserved line and the merchandise was to the right a quarter way up the concourse.  People were buying stacks of posters but I did score my shirts. Sat in section 418 and the concession area outside behind me also had merchandise.

    Yeah no...Thomas wasn't easy to get easy inside the venue. That dude got lucky and maybe doesn't realize it. I was in line over an hour before gates opened to get in at right-field entrance, got in right away to the line and still missed it by a couple people. I think what screwed me is that they channeled all the tenclub people in to a few entrances. Where in the past we could go in any entrance and it was easier to be closer to the front of the line.

    That said, some people have complained of getting screwed by the merch people. The lady that handled my order kept messing up over and over. I said give me an XL of shirts 1, 2 and 4. And my wife wanted a 2 also in her size. She gave us that ugly double eyed shirt for both of us...thank God we caught it. Then she got the sizes screwed up. It was a mess. So this morning I go through the bag, and she gave me an extra of the #1 XL size, which is my favorite. And it appears she undercharged me on top that.

    We just missed the Thomas poster. I was 3rd in line when the last 2 posters were bought. Pretty much everyone was buying 2. They would of had a lot more happy customers and a lot less flipping if they just limited it to 1 poster per person.
    Limiting all items to single purchase should have happened years ago. I sympathize with your frustration.

    There were merch trucks around the venue. Looked like they had everything and it didn't look like the lines were long.  At least not when I walked by them on my way to the pre-party around 2:30pm.  On my way back about couple hours later though, the lines were pretty crazy, but seems like people were still getting Thomas posters
