Just a heads up Deven. You can't even get into the parking lot/property without a ticket. The best bet is to come early Sunday morning when they open at noon. The place fills up but you can get a seat and get some tasty beer.

They announced on Facebook this morning 200 additional tickets to be sold to "locals".

2 hours later, this was the line, seen from the middle back, and then the middle up.

That stuff could taste like Candice Swanepoel in a bottle and there'd be no way in Hell I'd stand in a line like that just to get a ticket for an opportunity to purchase one.

Crazy. Someone I know was able to get in and get tickets.

I was thinking about doing a road trip this morning.

Stub Hub had them for around $250. There's always going to be people looking out for themselves. The only way to stop it is people to refusing to pay the stupid amount of money for those tickets. $50-$60 I can see but anything over that is crazy.

I did not, Dave, I didn't even know about it until I saw an earlier post from you anyway. Besides, this hog had to work.

I'm going to try and wait around at the end to see if they open it up again.

So, what is Dark Lord? Is it a beer or something? What's the fuss about?

Well I can't really tell, there's talk of tickets and what not... And pictures of kegs... But they only thing that makes me wonder is, why would someone buy tickets to drink beer?

One, it's great beer. Two, it's an excuse to hang out with friends, smoke cigars, and share rare beer from across the country with strangers.

Sign me up.

I dunno, we got a bar in town that does all that, no tickets required.

I'm just curious why people are paying 200 dollars a ticket to get into this event? What's the perk?

The tickets are only $15 (max of two) when they go on sale. The tickets last a few minutes before they sell out. The only reason they are $200 is because of scumbags.

Seems kinda weird... You would think that if its that popular it sells out in minutes that they could raise the price, get a larger place to hold the event, and then have more people thru the door as well.
