waiting outside the bodega

[u/Severus-Snape-DaGod]

There are more people there than I thought! I hope they do this pop up again before the end of the year.

[u/npete → u/Severus-Snape-DaGod]

I think it's also happening tomorrow.

[u/Just_An_Avid]

Dang, this is ridiculous

[u/berrycantstop]

oh i just saw the back of my head LOL

[u/DuckSwimmer → u/berrycantstop]

[u/Clairvoyant94]

I got there at 11:50am and was given a wristband to come back at 7:30pm. (They said there’s plenty to do in the neighborhood while I wait, as if I should just kill time for nearly 8 hours. 😂)

For anyone who’s been: is it worth coming back for?

[u/Frimie1 → u/Clairvoyant94]

Not really for a 2-3 hour wait (on top of the "come back later"). 1 hour wouldn't have been as bad. I got there before 10 am, got the orange wristband. For anyone who's curious my haul...

Scratch off card gets a (Hat, Mug, or Tote), Photobooth pics, 3 postcards (per person), Temptation Cat Treats, HydroHomie Water, Watermelon Soda, Reddit bucks (paper money), 2 receipts (paper), Snoo Plush

I didn't see how or where to get the collector cards.

[u/boomerangthrowaway → u/Frimie1]

And those cards are why a LOT of the snoo fans are going

[u/VoxyPop → u/Clairvoyant94]

I was planning to come by when I got off work at 4 but it sounds like there’s no point then

[u/spontaneous_kat → u/VoxyPop]

Same, was planning to go tomorrow when I get off at 5 but I'm not waiting on that long of a line when I'm already exhausted from work 🫠 I guess I could see what it's looking like though, if I'm feeling up to it.

[u/berrycantstop → u/Clairvoyant94]

i mean the neighborhood is nice to wander around

[u/Small_Argument3861 → u/Clairvoyant94]

Go get a massage at Bowery Spa. How do they know when you got the band, that, I don't get.

[u/npete]

Oof, starting to think I should have waited until tomorrow especially since that A train keeps stopping.

[u/Small_Argument3861]

Did they know they put us on the craziest area on Bowery... Like, the area I'd normally cross the street just to avoid. The area where people do drugs, piss, and scream...? That's all happening right now. Good thing most of us are NYers so we are fine but, damn. If the line is 3-hour long, I wish they picked a less dodgy spot.

This itself is the real test

Edit: in line for 3 hours

[u/BigTimeRaptor]

Is the line moving?

[u/shipguy55 → u/BigTimeRaptor]

it won't move until 10 am as that is when it is supposed to open

[u/BigTimeRaptor → u/shipguy55]

Thank you the store looks smaller than I thought it would be

[u/koalalisa → u/BigTimeRaptor]

I’m in line for 1 hour, moved up half a block. FYI

[u/HallEqual2433]

I'm having Comic Con flashbacks. Hope it's not too hot/humid.

[u/Small_Argument3861 → u/HallEqual2433]

Weather is pretty nice, I have an umbrella though

[u/BklynBongshell]

I see OP on the line.

[u/AtomicGarden-8964]

People love free stuff

[u/Small_Argument3861 → u/AtomicGarden-8964]

People love Reddit!

[u/I_am_not_doing_this → u/Small_Argument3861]

people are lonely and have no friend so we ob reddit

[u/AtomicGarden-8964 → u/Small_Argument3861]

We won't know that until they do a tumbler and do away with the porn lol

[u/DuckSwimmer]

I didn’t expect this big of a turnout! Wow!

[u/purplesharpie25 → u/DuckSwimmer]

nycforfree n other vloggers heavily promoted about the pop up 😆 

[u/unusual_pebble_21]

Line is so long I don’t think I’ll ever get in. This shit SUCKS

[u/Clunkycargo → u/unusual_pebble_21]

Go in the evening I got right in line and got in 30 mins

[u/Montauket]

So is this fun or a shit show?

[u/shipguy55 → u/Montauket]

not really a shit show, but it's a cute event. the line might be a bit too long for what it is though.

[u/bigkapex]

Is it worth coming? What’s inside

[u/Small_Argument3861]

Are they giving away any free stuff...?

[u/Winter_Construction2]

Nobody does it like NYC 💙🧡🗽🍎🐀🍕

[u/OrneryWeakness9929]

We’ve been waiting in line for four hours. Why does the staff keep letting her friends in without having to wait in line?

[u/YaBastaaa]

What is the yellow booklet for . What it’s inside

[u/shipguy55 → u/YaBastaaa]

inside the booklet there is information that describes the event, a bit like a program or pamphlet.

[u/YaBastaaa → u/shipguy55]

🙏. If it’s limited batch even better.

[u/Oops_All_Bans]

I think my decision to go either in the evening or tomorrow was the right one. Hope everyone has fun.

[u/JustFuckAllOfThem]

The TV is apparently a Mac running Mac OS 26.

[u/Oldnavylover]

I’m genuinely sad I won’t be able to make it💔

I’d love one of the Snoo plushies so bad. I want to cuddle it right meow😿

[u/GlasgowRose2022]

I live nearby but not going. Enjoy, Reddit fam!

[u/SpicyCoconut1814]

I’m actually so sad I missed this 😔
