You know I really can't believe that these Malls think they can just say no lines allowed. This is going to be a major event, and they will HAVE to control the crowds! I know they are all uptight, but they can't just have everyone milling around and then have them rush the store when they re-open at 6.
They should form the lines in the middle of the mall to keep the stores from being blocked, or give out numbers...though I doubt the numbers would work.
I might just call the Malls and ask what they plan to do. Probably get the same "I don't know" crap that everyone else is giving out.
If they were smart they would allow the lines with all the hype and coordinate with the local media to capitalize on all this hub-bub.
