(Munster, IN) – No, I am not at Dark Lord Day, but some folks online are posting up live shots so that the rest of us can be jealous. Here is a link in case you want to follow the DLD shenanigans on Twitter (#dld and #dld09). For the record, a report from Beermapper, Evil Keith, said that people were in line drinking before 3am. Wild.

Anyway, the photos below come courtesy of Twitterers. Click the pics for larger versions.

Left: @jverburg shows us the line before 10am, one hour before bottle sale. Right: @theinebriati are still somehow sober at 10am, pfft…

Left: Shot of the long line at 10am by @realbighugebeer. Right: @photobortism updates us at 10:15am.

Left: @jverburg looks like the Dark Lord is now pouring. Right: @Beer_at_Kahns must’ve got there early.

Left: @surlygrl is way in the back of the line and it is noon. Whoops! Get to the door by 6! Right: Pretty decent ratio if you are a single female (via @photobortism).
