Waiting in line for the PS3

[Clouded Sky]

I'll say this much. If it wasn't Finals Week in school right now, I'd be doing it too!

Not because I want a PS3 at all, but if you were paying attention, when the Xbox 360 was released, do any of you remember how much money people paid for them on Ebay?

Now that's a good reason.

Someone apparently doesn't remember how long some people waited in line to see the Phantom Menace. It's hard for me to see a week as fanatical devotion anymore.

HOw long?

I was Working at Pacific Theaters when the Phantom Menace came out. They started camping out 3 weeks in front before the movie came out. The first guy was there about 2 days before the others came. I was taking tickets at the door one afternoon as he walked up with a lawn chair and a small cooler with drinks.We even hired a bunch of extra people to man the concession stand for the mad rush.
Titantic was the real thing though as for as being busy. Every night we had to sweep after each showing I picked up at least 5-10 dollars under the seats. One guy beside me picked up $199 off of the floor!
