So that is why that did not happen.

Interesting tidbit. Thank you Ian.
I actually think Quarters would make an interesting story for TV and a different kind of episode for the show.

Four legs good, two legs bad. We're all equal; some are just more equal than others. |

I thought so too!!! I guess we just dont know show business or something?
And MSU Peeps getting in the back? Their bypass was cut before 11, and these are volunteers usually who dont get paid and the little amount of allowing them in without a line (which mind you didnt start forming until after 11) is a goods jeasture. I think if there was a line at 9 full all the way to the back this issue would have some legs, but since you could get in anytime up until 11, then had to wait in maybe a 20 minute line, there is no real issue here.

On another note. If you can't get into Quarters, stop whining and go earlier. I cannot count the amount of times I have either lined up for guest list at 6am, or lined up in regular line at 9pm.
If you don't want to do that, don't complain! |

ah come on! I wake up at 4:30 every morning, and am tired! give me a break!
And thanks, I was trying to say that in a different way. The line is not bad until 11, just go earlier and no issue!
