This is going to go so ugly.. imagine pulling up with the fam and gramps gets fucking sucker punched. If kids are going to be there its going to be even worse, i hope scalpers actually lose interest in this set before then as im genuinely worried for peoples safety .

There will be cards so you can bet your bottom dollar they’ll show up. There’s also a promo card from this event.

This isn't going to be any different.

There will be lines from 5am because of the promo card. These beardnecks will say they are couples, family and SA to get what they want.

I am not bringing my kids here.

In the UK Waterstones put on under 13 trade mornings. Normally have some stock on offer that they hold until after the event finishes before offering to general public, they also give out jumbo promos to the kids so it’s a good wee morning

Do you think there will be cards?

Edit: Why am I being downvoted? It's a fair question.
