My wife's in line at Invesco
She and her sister have tickets, but have been in line for over two hours. She says it's a real clusterfuck, everybody just following everyone in line in circles, and no one, even the cops, don't know where the end of the line is. She couldn't even take the light rail all the way to the Invesco stop, they made them get off at Auraria, and walk it. Not a good finale. Sure hope they get in, but they're getting doubtful.

2. It's brutal getting into these things
I made the mistake of bringing my 10 yr old son to the Kerry rally in Center City Philly a few weeks before the election. Not only did it take a long time to get in, we had a special pass that got us all the way up in front. The downside of it was, we were packed tight, standing, in the front, for six hours. My son was a trouper, but it was hard for him.

I also saw Kerry in Allentown - looong wait.
