They’re lining up in Lawrence, Kansas

Hey, we can kind of understand camping outside for concert tickets or playoff tickets (not for a Wii, mind you), but what we don’t quite get is getting in line outside a bar (a chain, no less!) to ensure entry the next day. Then again, we’ve never been to Lawrence, Kansas. From the Lawrence Journal-World (and thanks to Ron H., a dedicated Kansas backer, for the link):

The wait has begun.

A crowd of about 25 — seemingly growing by the minute — was lined up outside Buffalo Wild Wings Grill & Bar at 9 a.m. today in preparation for tonight’s 8:21 tipoff of the National Championship game.

“Hopefully I’ll get my favorite table,” said Eric Swanson, a 28-year old Lawrence mutual fund representative.

If not, he’ll be kicking himself. He only got in line at 1 a.m.

“I think I have a pretty good chance,” Swanson said. “I was the second one here.”

You can’t just get chicken wings anywhere, we suppose.
