In my area anyway, the ticket buying system was changed from a system where you bought tickets in the order in which you stood in line to one in which numbers were drawn to determine in what order you bought tickets.
The old way, people would stand in line overnight or longer to get tickets. Now, you just have to get there before they draw numbers.
The longest I myself have stood in line was about 13 or 14 hours to get Indiana basketball season tickets back when they were even more of a consistent Top 20 team than they are now. They were hard to get, and still are.
Also, stood in line about 12 hours for Pink Floyd tickets.
What system does your area use for in-person ticket sales, and how long have you stood in line? What were the tickets for?
Thanks for reading this long question!

Isobel, were you at that one too? The one where the kid took too much acid and during the video for Learning to Fly, he tried to fly off the balcony?
Some people just cannot handle their acid! lol

Busch Gardens in Virginia. The longest line I easily have stood in there became into possibly approximately an hour. there's no longer something in this international that i % or % sufficient to stand in line extra advantageous than an hour. An hour is the cutoff for me.

i have never stood in line that long for concert tickets. but my local radio station was giving away slipknot tickets and i was so broke and wanted to go soo bad. so me and my best friend got up at 5 am and went to the radio station to flash our boobs on the air for tickets. what worse is we were live on the radio and i was suppose to be at work and was late because of this. i gave a fake name on the radio and a couple guys at work still knew my voice and whistled at me all day for doing this. my dad works there too... i work in a machine shop.. i still cant believe i did that lol. but the concert was soo awesome and worth it...

Luckily I have never had to stand in line to buy tickets. I have either been asked to go by someone who already had tickets or bought them online. Boring, I know, but true.
