Looking for some advice for a draft attendee rookie. For those who have attended Day 1 of the draft before-- what time is it necessary to get there to wait in line to get tickets? I know the ticket office opens at 9-- I'm hoping I don't have to get there much before 6 AM to wait in line. Also, I've heard tickets are free, and I've heard they cost anything up to $50. Anybody have any info on that?

They are free but I wish you could pay for them. That's better than waiting in line for hours on end.

Ok I'm new to this but me and my family want to attend the draft. Judging on the topic near this one, I hear tickets are free but you have to wait in line. When is it, what time does it start, and when should I get there for relativly decent seats.

Yeah, I saw the other threads, I was more looking for info on what time to show up to get tickets. It sounds like 4 AM is a safe bet to get in and get good seats. Anyone else have any info?

Has the draft been announced as being at Radio City Music Hall? The NFLMedia site isn't showing a venue yet.

What is there to do at the draft (if you are in attendance) other than sit and wait for draft picks?
