So...what's everyone planning on doing while waiting in probably the longest line ever for C3 
Myself...I'll be bringing my camping chair (with cup holder), gameboy, and lots of snacks. Hopefully the weather will be nice.
I'm especially interested in hearing what the people who will be wearing costumes will be doing. I thought about bringing my Sandtrooper costume, but I don't know about walking 3 blocks in it, then waiting for hours and hours

Light speed, too slow?
Yes, we're gonna have to go right to ludicrous speed.

Well wookiesrus, if you mean staning in line to get into the show early in the morning, then count me in!! I am bringing my Darth Vader costume! I think it will be a blast! I am esspecially looking forward to talking with other fans from around the world about Star Wars!! That will be the best part for me!
I too am looking forward to seeing what kinds of costumes people will be wearing. I'm driving down with my Father-in-law! He said he wants to get into the feel of the thing, so he is dressing up as a Jedi! I couldn't believe my ears when he said that! The costume is similar to Anakin's in Episode 2, but not quite as good of materal. But he says he wants to do it!! YEE HAA!!!
See you there Wookiesrus!

Chain-smoking? Hey, you stand away from me...
Everyone in FF Sweden will probably be munching on muffins, our official food. And singing SW songs. That's what we usually do in the queues to cons...

I probably won't be wearing my costumes on the first day just because it's a shorter day and I know I'll be in line the longest on Thursday since it doesn't open until late. I'll wear my Jedi and X-Wing pilot costumes Friday and Saturday.
I'll definitely be getting there early this time, however. That line was awful on Friday of C2. I was at least 3 blocks away that morning, and I'm definitely not making that mistake again.

This is going to be my first time at Celebration and I was wondering about how early the line starts to form for (what I would assume to be) the first day? And for you guys who were like 3 blocks away at C2, how long did it take to finally get in? Thanks for feedback!

Think the leader of our group is planning on getting in line that morning. THREE that morning. No idea what to do to pass time, but I too am looking forward to talking with people about Star Wars. I'm still in awe that I'm even going. I never would have thought in 1977 that 27 years later I would be a part of something like this. Just great. For all the criticism that GL takes, and some is justifiable, he has created something that has really brought people together. Some great freindships and even a few marriages are a result of Star Wars. Okay, I'm finished rambling.

hanging out basically. Not much else to do in a line.

if last time is any indication...someone getting in line @ 3am will definitely be first. people didn't line up quite that early. i think some of my friends lined up at about 5 or 6am on sunday and were among the first few people in line.
edit: also, i arrived at 5:30am on the day it opened and there wasn't anyone lined up yet.
