Quick RH question (or any adult beverage experience). Do they card you there on site or is that info linked through the MB for staff to verify? Just trying to see how much I can leave in our room and NOT carry with us. Thanks!

They card you onsite. Sadly for me I haven't been carded at all in the past couple of years, I guess I just look over 21

I suggest that we all purposely avoid the first post of page 1,000, as well as the last post of that page (#20,000), and reserve those honors to @yulilin3 because, well, you know...

no worries...that'll be hard to time it out. Maybe it'll happen this weekend

Its hit or miss weather you'll be carded but if you want an adult beverage I'd bring your ID just in case.

How early would I need to get to HS for a FP for a Session with Jeremy? And would he sign my Boba Fett stein?

I was carded at one of the pop up stands, but I wasn't carded in RH any of the times I was there.

I'm a little sad that it's Thursday and I am not getting ready to leave work to head to the airport like I was the last two weeks.

latest 5:30am. And I'm sure he'll sign the stein. Are you trying for tomorrow? If you are can you report back

It's only an 8 hour drive from Atlanta, you have time

Thank you, that helps. We are buying for the 1 reserved seat at a show and the desert party\fireworks honestly. How is the view for the fireworks and is the desert party any different?

My DH was allowed to stay with us at the PP area for the dessert party so I don't have any direct comparisons. We chose a table at the back next to the rope along Hollywood Blvd and thought the view was great.

I just cancelled my DTech Me for 6pm on 06/12. Hopefully someone here that wants to do it can grab it. Didn't want to cancel but A Conversation with Frank Oz wins this year. Just gives me another reason to come back next year.

Thanks @SethandMac for your Jedi Mickey dinner! I just released my 6:25 Jedi Mickey for 2 on 6/13! Hope someone here can get it!

UGGGHGHGHGHG I am NOT a morning person. And no unfortunately I have to work and I have yet to find a virtual job but I might try for Saturday

How long has Chewy's line been? We were there 5/15 and I thought CMs were saying two hours. Has that been consistent?

If you want to do D-Tech, just go by and they'll probably let you do walk-up. My DH had an appointment but was there shopping several hours earlier and they took him right in when he asked. And they didn't look busy at all when I was there.

consistently an hour and a half all day long. That's why, if he's a priority, you should do the Chewy run first thing

Thanks! We did the Chewy Run on 5/15. It looks like we may be doing it again and hopefully we'll get a better time.

I fear people getting to the park at 4am and seeing that they have no chance to get Ray Park will jump into Jeremy's and Ashley's line. That's why we are skipping this weekends Rebel (Ashley) and trying for her next weekend along with Taylor Gray

Thanks for the tip! I will try that.

Well I would want the latest possible time he had. If I stay in on Friday night then I will see how I feel at 5 am. Do they do standby on a limited basis for autographs.

They do give a limited number of standby. Just keep in mind you have to sit and wait in the sun through all the signing sessions hoping that you will get in. And they take standby in the order of their tickets, so even if you waited there a long time, they will take any lower number that shows up by the time they get to standby.
