There isn't a disclaimer on the posting on panthers.com about what interpretation is being applied to "The first 100 fans in line at 5 p.m.".

Having been involved with both waiting in line at things like this as well as organizing/managing lines from the vendor side, I expect things to get pretty snarky.

  • Have you started/posted a "sign up list"? It ain't official, but it does help to show that you have begun some semblance of order for when the Alltel folks come out to determine who is or isn't in line.
  • Is Alltel passing out numbers? Either from a "keep this ticket" raffle roll or something more official and less likely to be faked?
  • Better yet would be wristbands. If you have a wristband, you're good. If not, you're not. The good thing about wristbands is that it prevents stragglers from jumping the line late.
  • Have they said what qualifies to be "a fan in line"? ie have to be over 18, so the teacher bringing her 1st grade class of 99 kids don't get all 100 pairs for themselves. Or "dressed in Panthers gear", etc....
  • Have you set out ground rules for the people who are present, so you don't have Joe Schmoe waiting for a day and then having all of Joe's relatives joining him in the last minute and butting into the line?

If you have a chance to chat with the Alltel folks at all (you know, as a volunteer to help manage the line), you might want to ask what plans they have.

Check out the short film "The Line", done by the folks at SNL during the writer's strike last year. It's no Dr Horrible, but it covers a lot of what you're going through. [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3TN9urUuDc"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3TN9urUuDc[/ame]

And of course, be sure to clean up all your trash when you leave. You might expect Falcons fans to leave all their crap around after camping in a store parking lot for the weekend, but we're better than that. We don't want to give Alltel any reason not to do this again.

Update: it's around 12:20 now, and there are still only 15 people in line max.

we have talked to the Alltell people, and they know the event is going on, but are kinda unsure of all the details about it.

I'm actually about to have my spot relieved by my bro who is coming, so i'll keep you updated when I get back

with a total lack of planning

I wish someone would make you President of this great country, so you could control everything, and make it as great as EVERYTHING that goes on in your own little perfect world.

Sometimes you really need to just quit trying to run every fuking thing you get wind of. DAMN!

Why does someone with all your great wisdom and knowledge choose to stay at home all day, day after day, and post on a message board, instead of getting out there and helping all of other unfortunate dumbasses that can't live up to your standards??

Off your meds again today 9Lives?

Nope....don't need meds, but my GOD GTG.....you really try to run any and everything that is mentioned on here.

It get's old. Nobody can do anything up to your standards, you are the God Queen of know it all about everything, and everybody else doesn't know jack sh*t, and this should have been done this way, and that should have been done that way....and on and on you go.....FOREVER.....

Infinity and beyond...........don't need meds to tell you the truth, but I swear to GOD, you make it hard for a MF'er to have to NOT take meds dealing with you. I wish more of us would do the same.

Flying off the handle like you are so apt to do proves otherwise 9Lives. You really should check into it.

Not flying off the handle.....just built up inside me till I can't take it anymore. Just telling you how I feel, and how I see it..........nothing more than what you choose to do a couple of dozen or so times a day.

Excuse me if you don't like the bluntness, or the tone of it. You just get on my nerves....no other way to say it, and I've bit my tongue long enough.

So...blame it on meds, the rain, or whatever sorry excuse makes you feel better. Makes me no nevermind. :D
