Picking Up Tickets

Got up early today and joined the line at the Festival Box Office at College Park to pick up my tickets, plus select new films with the leftover coupons. Here's a couple of photos of the line this morning:



The above photo shows the line snaking around the edges of the photo in a counter-clockwise fashion. At the head of the line are the tables where you pick up your completed order forms.

This shot isn't very clear, but the line goes up the stairs and around a fountain.



Once the office opened at 10:00 AM, it probably took us 15 to 20 minutes to get to the head of the line to pick up our orders. And since we had four coupons left as some of our first and second choices were sold out, we got into the line to redeem coupons for new films:



This line took about 45 to 60 minutes to get through. However, when I left downtown at 2:00 PM today, there was still a substantial line up at the box office.
