My daughter and her friends headed out Thursday night to get in line for the newest Harry Potter movie.
Now, the movie wasn’t opening until Midnight and from what I understand all of Smooch’s friends along with herself were at the theater around 6:30-7pm. There was no one in line for the movie.
We live in the boonies, but the theater they were going to was in a pretty popular town, but waaay outside of the cities which I’m sure was a zoo.
They went to Culver’s to grab a bite to eat and then I think someone did a Caraboo Coffee run. You have to understand that it’s November in Minne”snow”ta. It’s stinkin’ cold outside! These kids were determined to be in first and get the choice seats.
Well, they did what they wanted to accomplish and were first inside. Sounds like they all loved the movie and it was worth the wait.
Back in ‘89-‘90 when Michael Jackson was touring the States I was a late teen/ early 20’s and waited overnight to get some sweet 4th row tickets to his concert. I bought like 4 of them. A month or so later he cancelled. Not sure if it was the entire tour, but he wasn’t visiting Seattle. I was so ticked. I mean, I waited overnight for these tickets and getting so close? Oh well, that’s how it goes sometimes. At least I got my money back!
Have you ever done something like this?

I'm kinda jealous. :P lol I blocked myself from the online world so I didn't hear anyone talking about it. We went the next day to the first showing, there was only about 10 other people so it was great. I LOVED IT!
I remember we went to the midnight premiere of Fast and Furious. Teenagers were sneaking in and there was no seats left. My aunt started such a riot it was hilarious. They checked tickets for EVERYONE and everyone knew it was us. The next day at school, I was getting some pretty dirty looks from those that were kicked out. :P
Thanks so much for being one of my sweet followers....I'm following you, too!
WE WENT ON FRIDAY AND LOVED IT:) GREAT PICTURES:)
What fun! My son made sure we were the first ones in in our showing, though we didn't go to the midnight showing.
My husband and I used to wait to be one of the first in line for amusement parks and then RUN like crazy to the newest rollercoasters so that we wouldn't have to wait in as long of a line to ride.
Awwww looks like they had a lot of fun. :)
Yep, U2, Joshua Tree tour. Sometimes the adventure is just as good as the movie or concert!
