So who's braving the merch line today? It has to be better than Thursday, right?
Been in line for almost 3hrs - was about 100 deep when we got in line. It’s prolly 500-600 people deep right now. We are in the shade but it’s still pretty hot out here.

I was hoping for something Golden Knights related given how much the city loves them and being the last cup winner.
Shocked there wasn’t a jersey.

The N1 shirt very much had a Raiders feel to me. Tonight's leans a little Knights but not as clearly. They obviously wanted to do their dice and cards but a jersey would have worked too.

Hope it moves faster than Thursday. There were people who got in as early as you and it still took them a few hours after it opened. I only want the poster and sticker tonight so not even considering outside and am going to be pretty reserved even on when I try inside.
For the Vegas dice, I've mainly seen red being sold but I've also seen pics of green dice. Are both colors available or is the color just random based on what merch stand you go to?
Edited: Apparently the green dice were made for the 2022 shows and some vendor stations were selling the green 2022 dice along with the red 2024 dice. Never saw green at a station I was at but learned that info and wanted to update in case others wondered.

Yeah - the guy in front of us is saying the same thing. He said it was super slow once the truck opened.

Gotta love the people who try on every item of clothing they have before making a purchase.
Do they have both nights posters? How is the line now?

This one woman at St Paul last year took 30 minutes to decide what she wanted.
I take 2 minutes. I know exactly what I want (and what size I need) before I even get there.
Do they have both nights posters? How is the line now?
I just walked by. Only tonight's poster. If I had to guess at best 2.5 to 3 hours. If it really goes.
Thanks.

I've always said the merch booth needs an express lane. When the person gets up they hit a 30 second timer. Once it goes off you can be rung up but no more questions or items. If you need more time, back of the line.

They can’t even enforce limits
Money is the incentive to keep it moving. Dare to dream.
Anyone by chance snag an extra keychain? Going to try in merch tonight. Friend saw the show the other night and wants a keychain. Before I give him mine, seeing if anyone has an extra. Will pay for time in line as well.
Edit: was able to make this happen. Thanks to those who offered!
I thought I'd add since I did the miserable wait on Thursday, we got in line around 3 trying to decide how to get the merch for tonight, really only wanted a sticker and poster but would take a t-shirt if they had them. Not sure it took an hour and a half and still had everything but dice and cards. They still had at least some sizes of Thursday's shirt and Thursday's sticker. Even looked like they had the duffels again. We were done before we were done on Thursday. So a much better experience and shorter than waiting for doors by my estimation (inside the MGM was already packed a bit after 5). It's funny how these things can differ by day.
Got to the arena around 7:30 tonight. Got thrown out of the merch line twice by a couple of ladies working that seemed clueless. They kicked people out of the line and told them to go inside to the other merch stands, then less than 5 minutes later they let the line re-form again.
I did eventually get through. Passed on the poster again (does pj not QC the quality they let through???). Dice and cards were long gone. Show shirts were in stock, but at no bigger than large size. First world problems.
Has the bag been hard to come by? Good quality? Haven’t seen much info on it but I think it’s the thing I’m interested in most. Headed to LA Tuesday!
I really dig my bag. It was the one thing that I "needed" to get. It's sturdy, but not heavy duty. It unzips on the part that is against your back, which is something I've never encountered. I guess that's what makes it more of a duffel than a backpack, but it does have those straps. All around really happy I was able to get one.
