I'm an OLD BF participant. My wife and I were 1st in line several times, years back in the late 90's..My kids were little and we camped at BB EVERY year. Started going at 1 or 2 in the AM and people thought we were nuts. Met some good friends and up until recently have continued the ritual. Last time we 'camped out' was probably 4-5 years ago when we spent Turkey day in a tent freezing and taking turns going home to cook T-day diner for our campmates and us!!!
