Eggtoberfest tickets sold out in less than 5 minutes? Cook tickets sold out in less than a minute?

I've never seen general admission tickets sell out so fast? In the years past they've always been available all day on August 1st, what gives?

I don’t know if you could take the huge cloud of white smoke. I’m not joking either. Imagine hundreds of eggs being fired up at the same time with Royal Choke aka BGE Lump. I wasn’t the only one in our group that noticed it.

Just like the Great American Beer Festival in Denver. I've seen 60,000 tickets sell out in less than an hour.

Does anyone know exactly how many tickets they sell to the event each year? 

OhioEgger

I've seen estimates from 3,000 to 5,000 so it's somewhere in there.

I say double the size of the event and double the ticket price...

Works for me every year.

My only complaint is the line to get in.......I just plan on showing up 45 minutes late.

Second chance!! From the BGE website: A smaller allotment of tickets will be available on Thursday the 8th @ 6:00PM Eastern.
