Jordan XI Bred release December 2012 in the Bay Area

Serramonte will be a problem. Got dudes camping 10 hours for a wristband. During the concords release, they ran out of wristbands after handing out 300+ wristbands leaving another 300+ empty handed. Security was lacking and had dudes run up to the line and get a wristband. Raffle route will be a headache too with the families coming out in full force. Imagine calling all the winners also :x
 
^I will never go to serramonte again for a big release like this. Last year was stupid, security had no control.
 
Looks like FNL will do the release like they did GMPs. Make sure your a winner circle member to enter. This is gonna make it hard for employees to hook homies up! Sucks for me.

I'm guessing FTL will do raffles, pick up tickets week b4 the drop and hope to get picked.

I'm hoping if i hit up 10 spots, I can get the few pairs I need.
 
sorry to side track the thread but does anyone know a place thats selling the DMV's early??

and for anyone living in the SF/DC area i would suggest not going to serramonte for a release like this. Last years concord release was madness.
 
I was part of the madness last year and let me just say that after that I will never camp again for a release. So many things went wrong from me being in the top 50 in line and getting a wristband with 250 on it to hella people cutting in line including an old lady that straight up came in when they were handing out wristbands! I was like :x

Just a little flashback.




But anyways onto this year I'm 99.9% positive that all the major stores, FTl, FNL, Champs will be doing a raffle starting the 16th so that is when I plan on getting my tickets. As far as shoe palace and sheik stores does anyone know if they will do FCFS? Also for the Black/Red IV's FNL at tanforan did FCFS so they might also do that this year? Unless the winners circle raffle is for all the FNL stores in the country. (Haven't gotten that email yet :()
 
Will try my luck at ftl or nt. it's going to get crazy one the release is near

I remember that old lady along with her 20+ family walked to the front like it was cool. Them females in front was trying to argue that they were there for hours making line. Bullshiet.

Anyways, it was crazy and I'm not gonna lie. My girl and her friend were working and I had them cut in front of me, but I would see groups of 5+ cutting. It happens. This year it's a raffle though.

Expect this time you can take your whole family in to sign up for the raffle... I know a guy who won 8 pairs of the bred 4 with about 20 raffle entries.

And that is the reason why the raffle is a bad idea. I may not be so lucky this time. I've always had an opportunity to get a pair or more of every XI release.
 
I heard that FTL might be doing online raffle same way FNL is. Not sure how much truth there is to this but my homie who usually has good sources told me this. Guess we'll be finding out soon.
 
Man!!!! I'm pissed!!! I got so much to do on Sunday so I would've been free on Friday but now my plan looks like it back fired! Stupid raffle! Hopefully I can make a few raffles in time on Sunday....
 
Do you guys think that raffle tickets will be handed out with no cap on them? For ex. say hoh serramonte has 200 pairs (this is just for example purposes) and they give out 250 raffle tickets. Will they continue to hand out tickets through the end of Monday?...Anyone get that fnl emai yet? Still waiting on mine even though tomorrow is the last day to enter the dumb raffle.
 
Looks like I'm doing the tour around the Bay on Sunday, picking up tickets. If anyone wants to carpool with me, send me a PM :p

You serious!??? The guy didn't say that it was NTSF, he just said he's local NT. Unless you know him.

I think they going to be handing out tickets the whole sunday and monday. No cap on the raffle tickets. They will be drawing names until they fill out their inventory. I know my local FTL says their getting about 140 pairs.

probably will do the same thing but not go all over the place (ie Sunvalley or Oakridge) because i work in SF, and there's only so far i can go once im off work. man if there really are 900+ pairs at NTSF, then i like my chances i suppose. the rsvp sure would help, but :{ at having to go through all this.

hoping to finish before the niners/pats game! good luck everyone.
