Did you get some sort of a "time out" or were you disallowed from drinking any more at all?

My biggest issue was waiting to get in. I was not anticaipating a 2.5 hour wait to get on the property so I didn’t bring any bottles to enjoy while I waited and the folks in line around me didn’t have anything, not that I would have mooched off them anyway. I was fully expecting to wait for bottles once inside, but that fact that we waited that long outside the party with no access to any of its benefits really pissed me off.

Extend the fence to include the street so they could serve Zombie Dust to everyone in line and I think the event would be great.

not possible since it would have broken several laws.

I was being more theoretical than literal.

And where was the "chef food"? In the brewpub? I am not upset that I didn’t get any, I just never saw any evidence of it. The only food I saw was the taco truck and the other food truck (don’t know what they were selling because I never saw them open).

The Taco Truck, I’m assuming, is the Big Start truck. Was it bright yellow? if so, that would have been the Paul Kahan food...

I heard reports of de boned pork face cut thin with loads of awesome on top of it.

Got in early...had a great time. It seems easy to put all of the blame on FFF’s for this, but I truly think they didn’t anticipate every single person getting in line immediately for his/her bottles.

When my wife and I got through the gates, we made a bee-line for the tent........crazy as it may sound, there was no wait for any brew. Chilled out in there for a few hours, grabbed some schwag, got in line for our bottles and bounced.

I really don’t understand why everyone wanted to get in line for bottles as soon as they got in, other than trying to score a "RARE" BA brew.

Good times...IMO
