Yeah, I will be much more aggressive on stuff I want going forward knowing that group is working it so hard locally. I like talking in line with people, but definitely don't say anything about my shoe size. I like talking to old heads that are wearing beat to Js. Then if one or two of my kids came along I've had them pull raffle tickets. If they get pulled before the old head we'll lock down a card with the size they want while the getting is still good and make sure they're covered.
So, yeah...I will mostly just go by myself unless my kids are wanting to get up early and hang out. I'll make much more a point of bringing them along and trying to out-snag these punks so people that actually want the shoes can get 'em. People are jerks...a guy pulled the only one of a large size for '16 jams and sold it to an old head that had to have it for $60 on top right there in line. The dude was wearing shadows, so he's a J fan, but had made it clear he was only there for resell on the jams. That release was stupid...little 6 year old girls being first drawn and taking my size...but at least there were 5 pair my size and I made the cut.
