Anyone else going to make it to the St. Louis Galleria on the 1st? Since they're not doing preorders this year, I figure I'll go to the launch. I'm going to try to be close to the front of the line, preferrably first, so I can get out of there as quickly as possible since I have stuff going on later in the day.
Got a tip for us?

I considered West County, but that's an even further drive (I live across the river in Alton). If I'm going to wake up at 4:30 in the morning, I want as quick a drive as possible.

Well you make me feel better about my drive. I am about 35 minutes away and live in St. Charles. Lets hope for a quick line. If I lived in Alton I would still drive in for the first day pick up.
To be fair, the drive isn't so long (about 45 minutes), I simply have to wake up that early so I can be out of the door by 5.
But yeah, I'll probably try and wake up at 2:00 to reserve one just to be safe, but I'd still like be early in line so I can get home as soon as possible, seeing as I'm out of town as of tomorrow.
I preordered at West County Mall and picked up on launch day. I waited about 10 minutes for a sales person to free up, and they had a queue for that. They clicked a pad a few times and someone else brought out all my stuff and I signed for it. It couldn't have been much easier.
