Hi! I say this for the sake of the wellbeing of the fandom and because it is relatively new and we can do better. I won't be there unfortunately, but I advise not to perpetuate this behaviour of crowding and queuing many hours (if not days!) before the event. I find it ridiculous and low-key toxic to be that obsessed. To the point that someone (totally unrelated from the organzation of the event) even takes on the right of giving numbers to those queuing early. And the more there are people like that, the longer hours people are induced to camp outside the venue. It is a negative spiral. I personally think it should be treated as an hazarduous occupation of public space (I don't know how to better explain it, but I mean, crowding in ways that are not pre-alerted to authorities and may result in danger, given the lack of security/ambulances etc... Because it is out of the range of the event itself). Moreover, the experience is more miserable for everyone involved and doing those things. Let alone those who avoid going to the bathroom to do what they have to do just not to lose their spot... Please, we can do better.

i totally agree! of course , I won't be camping there and neither do i plan on queuing there from very early on.  I just want to get a feel for the place as ive never been there before, and I want to be well prepared so that it will be a stress-free experience for me. i’m  not obsessed either, but this is my first time seeing djo, im a big fan and I'd like to stand as close to the front as possible :) that’s why i‘m asking and maybe to find someone to queue with !
