    I've been in line since 10:30, still about 75 feet from the truck. I haven't heard anyone complaining of anything, it's just a lot of people. The basketballs and duffel bag look really cool from what I've seen people walking by with.

    You probably aren't that much ahead of me. Can't remember exactly when I got in line. This is not the longest line I've waited in but it is moving slow.

    The problem is the per transaction time when people get to the truck. It’s honestly taking close to 5 minutes per transaction. I walked up and observed for 10-15 minutes. Way, way too slow. Not much sense of urgency. I’m prob 150 yds away and it could be another 2 hours. It’s honestly not worth it…

    Yeah, this might be the shortest physical line I've been in and might take the longest time once all is said and done. It is pretty silly at this point. I still like the experience but this shouldn't take this long.

    Flying in from Phoenix Saturday afternoon before the show- if anybody is able to grab a duffel and basketball tomorrow (assuming they release more) I'd be grateful!  I've got no shot with out arrival time most likely...  I'd toss in some extra $ and a sticker from the last Phoenix show (not much, but all I have to sweeten the pot)  Let me know if you're able to help out- thanks!

    Yeah I waited 4.5 hours and they were sold out of basketball, duffel, and only had size medium of the hockey shirt. Super bummed to not get a basketball. =( Maybe Saturday.

    It reminds me of deboarding a plane. Just stand up, grab your shit, and get the fuck off.

    There are 6 employees in the truck and each is serving a customer at about a 3/4 minute clip. So the math…

    I’ve now walked down twice to check things out. It’s SNAIL pace slow. 

    Maddening but lesson learned on my end. Hadn’t camped out for merch in well over a decade and this will be the last. 

    But, on the bright side, talking to other fans is always fun.
