Ticket Time again

Well its that time of the year where a young mans fancy turns to camping overnight to get Great Taste of the Midwest Tickets.

So Saturday Me and the boys (Glen, Tim, Paul, Perry) headed out to the fine town of Lake Mills and Tyrenena brewery.  Set up camp and waited.  Nothing like early May camping to make you feel young? old?  not sure.  We had a table, ate dinner:

Played cards, drank beer until the told us to go to bed at 4:00 AM.  

Next Morning rise and shine to break down camp and sit and wait, some more.

Mind you there are only 400 tickets to be had and each person can buy 2.  Sad to say some of the later arrivals were not getting any tickets.  The line snaked all the way around the grounds, to my right and down the side of the building behind me.  All seemed well until the storms started showing up.  We all got moved into the actual brewery floor because there was serious lightning in those storms.  
Pretty nice of them to let us do that.  A hoard of people among hundreds of thousands of dollars in equipment.  At noon they started selling and we were on our way home.  
Can't wait until next year....
