    Wait In Line Gear for a XBOX360

    For those that are going to spend a few hours in line before midnight release for the XBOX360, what are you going to bring with? It will be a cold one by me tomorrow. My wife went and bought a few essential supplies to help me from freezing.

    -Scarf, Gloves, Thermal Underpants, Umbrella, Mountain Dew, Doritos, and my PSP.

    The temp is going to drop here to the 30's so it will be a cold one.

    I'm going to be wearing an Arctic coat, atop of a heavy knit sweater, t-shirt, thermal underpants, heavy blue jeans, 2 par of socks :y4: (I need two par) and heavy Timberland boots.

    As for food, probably Dorito's, Diet GingerAle, and who knows what all else...

      Candyman, if you are going to the Ford City Best Buy, would 9pm be a good time to get there?? or is that too late?

      I was going to the one in Downers Grove at around 6am, they open at 9am.

        I'm going to Ford City. I don't quite know what time to go there either, so I'm going to drive past there during my lunch break from work to see how the line is outside. If this fails, than I'm going to get over to the Countryside Best Buy at 4-5 am.

        I think 9 pm should be fine since tickets aren't going to be handed out till 11:00 pm.

          I think I might give it a shot. If I pull up and see a long a$$ line, I will just drive away. I am almost at the point where I would be happy even with a core system. I think that Best Buy is getting like 160 something premiums.

            Hey Candyman, if you do go there on your lunch break, can you post something here saying about how many people were there?

            I appreciate it.

              30 degrees! Ouch.

              The most comfortable warm gear I can find!

              Make sure you guys double check you have your method of payments upon entering the line!

                Heading to Sterling, VA Best Buy for midnight release. I planning to get there by 7 pm. I'm bringing warm clothes/leather jacket, umbrella, folding chair, the latest OXM, and my Zen Micro mp3 player. Someone else at my office should also be there, so I'll have someone I know to talk to. Tonight is the night!!!

                  There are already 25 people standing outside at Ford City. I take it that I won't be getting one at this rate.

                    You're in trouble my friend. It was in yesterday's Chicago Tribune(The Best Buy ad) so a whole heckuva lot more people know about it now.

                        It's near Dulles airport. No go at Best Buy, though. All units were spoken for as of 3:30 this afternoon.
