I think this will be interested. We did this for the 6 Plus launch.

Post pictures of the lines from where you're waiting and say which carrier/Apple store it is! I'm heading to my local AT&T soon and I'll post a picture.
 
First in line! At my local Verizon store. No guarantee ill get one, in fact theres a good chance i wont, but gotta try lol.
SO6JeDE
Are you there alone? And what time zone? I just got to my local AT&T and no one else is here.

When the 6 Plus came out I got there at 10:30PM and was first, but once other people saw me sitting there.. people slowly started coming in.

Thera someone else here but they are sitting in their car and left their chair on the sidewalk. I don't really care as we are the only ones here and their car is parked like 7ft get from their chair.

Central time btw, in Minnesota. Been here for 3 hours, got here at 8pm.
 
Don't know how to upload a picture, but theres about 10 of us here, all college kids lol
I'm first in line, been here since 6:45. More people showed up around 7:30
 
That chair with the side tray may be the greatest ever made.
I actually don't like it! The side tray is great but it sits too high and you can't really lean back in it as the seat isn't deep enough. I'm actually thinking of having a family member bring a different one later when they come relieve me for a bit while i drive to a gas station for something to drink and use the bathroom.

Ahhhhh if might be a different version from one I sat in Saturday. It looked similar and was great. Good luck!! Dress warm.

It wasn't taking pictures uploaded right from my phone for shine reason so i just uploaded it to imgur and pasted the link.

And yes i will be snelling in the chair lol. Got warn clothes, a pillow and blanket, and a raincoat incase it rains later.

Edit- **** typing on this phone. Writing this on my work phone which is a galaxy s6. I HATE Samsung keyboards. So that's why the typos are out in force lol.
 
Hey man, like i said in another thread, no sacrifice no victory lol.

But yeah it is pretty sad lol.

Me waiting in line at my local VZW in West Texas. Well not a line yet, but waiting in my truck until I see someone else roll up and then it's a brisk walk to the door with my fold out chair lol

Lol you may have just decreased your chances by being second, hopefully you get what you want. My store has a sticker if you will on the ground saying line starts here or something of that nature. So there is no confusion.
 
I'm sitting in my car. No one else is here yet. Been here approx 2.5 hours. I don't have a chair. :(

Well hopefully you can find a wall to lean on. Yup I have my fold out chair and a umbrella since we have like a 30% chance of rain here within the hour. I also have a bottle of water but want to avoid drinking it since I have the bladder of a 99 year old man sometimes. Lol
 
Well i am going to head out at 3AM to my Local Verizon Store since there is no one there just checked at 10PM so its safe to say if I get there at 3AM it will be ok.

I'm first in line. It's about 2:30am here. A guy in a funny looking brown outfit should show up about 11am and hand me my phone.

Looking back I should have done the online preorder thing but this is my first and last time waiting in no line at zero dark thirty for a iPhone. I guess now I can say I did it, since I only get a new iPhone every two years using my upgrade.

Everyone needs to do it once. I did and I immediately swore to never do it again. You should make the most of it. Hopefully some fun people show up. The time I went there were 150+ people in line. It was fun but torturous at the same time.

What number where you in line and did you get what you came for? I take it you were at a Apple Store?

Download the Google Keyboard. It's much better.
