Mandy has posted photos, and reports the person first-in-line arrived at about 11 p.m. the previous night for the Country Club Plaza (Mo.) grand opening, and several others arrived at 2 a.m. By 7:45 a.m. there were only 36 people in line, but that increased quickly as opening time approached, including people from Dallas area (552 miles) and Tulsa (246 miles). Another tipster estimated there were about 800 people in line when the store opened, supported by attendees to the shopping district’s art fair. By all accounts, the line was very long and enthusiastic, and wrapped around the block.
