The box office is open from 3:00 - 8:00 next Monday to Thursday.

The wristbands are cloth style with slide-lock closure. Once the wristband is closed, you can't adjust the locking mechanism as it will destroy the wristband.

Thanks Dr. Ace. Looks like I'll have time to get mine Thursday night.

Who else plans on getting a wristband early ?

I like to go during the week and get it out of the way. Plus, I'd rather put my own wristband on than have security do it at the gates. They strap it on with a death grip.

indeedy.
I hope they don't stay damp if they get wet (shower, hand washing, etc.) That could get super irritating.

I'm glad they are using cloth wristbands this year. Those plastic ones were really uncomfortable.

I bought a co-worker's ticket so I have to try to pick it up with her e-confirmation on Monday so if it doesn't work, she can pick up her own on Tuesday (before she goes out of town for a week). So I'll be picking up mine really early.

I think on friday you exchange your ticket for a wristband at the entrance gates.

so with this slide-lock closure apparatus, will you be able to make the wristband whatever size you want, as opposed to previous years with the few predetermined band sizes based on where the holes were?
