<p>[QUOTE="Weston, post: 1965121, member: 58878"]Well, the Kennedy's turned out to be a success. Made about 4K(with expenses taken out) for standing in line 2 days, 12 hours each. Easy money if you ask me! We arrived at the airport on monday night and we went right over to just check things out. Try to see where to go and what to do in the morning. A bus pulled up while we were checking things out at the entrance, and we joked, "they are probably getting in line for the Kennedy's already!" We thought, we will head back to the hotel room and catch a few Z's before we check in again at about 2 AM. Turned out those people were actually standing in line for the coin. I was number 170 when I got in line.</p><p><br /></p><p>The next night was even more chaotic with no one being allowed on the convention center property until "6 AM."
