What the longest time -
 
- you have queued for anything? Tickets, a place, a book, game etc. Have you ever camped out in a queue for example? You know, like those on the news who sit for 3 days on the streets for the Royal Wedding or tickets to see Donny Osmond

I think I've spent more time in the que at primark than I have actually shopping in primark.. they're always so massive!

2 hour queue in Game once. For a ****ing Sims stuff pack that wasn't even new. But it's the ONLY place that sold it. :bored:

Everyone was buying some new ****ty Xbox game though

Alton Towers rides. What a joke that place is

About 2 hours to get on some ride in Alton Towers.. it kept breaking down while we were waiting. Was all over an hour late back for the coach back to college.

Marsh. 27-07-2011 09:15 PM

Wow, I don't think I'd stay in a queue if I knew I was going to be more than about 20 minutes. 2 hours? I think I'd have died of boredom.

Chuck 27-07-2011 09:17 PM

3 hours queue for a ride on:

Your college took you to Alton Towers? :confused: Did you mean school?

For me, it's the London Dungeons.

No, college. We went every year with school aswell, but we went on the last day of college last year.

6 hours for tickets to Eminem in 2006, got in the paper and all for being first in line to get tickets......3 weeks later he went to Rehab and cancelled it :(

Kerry 27-07-2011 09:19 PM

I've queued for rides before. I wonder if anyone here has camped out to wait for anything

Callum 27-07-2011 09:19 PM

I queued for hours to get Half-Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows books but I think my longest ever wait was something like 4 hours at the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey ride in Florida, it broke down like twice so we had to wait ages in the blistering heat.

Kerry 27-07-2011 09:20 PM

Doesn't it put anyone off if the rides keep breaking down? :joker:

I waited for less than an hour to get on that. theres so much you have to walk around though

King Gizzard 27-07-2011 09:22 PM

never in a rush to get anything, just wait for it to get cheaper/get it online

Doogle 27-07-2011 09:22 PM

I wouldn't mind queuing for rides if they have things to do/look at while you wait like in Legoland :joker:

Yeah I went it on again and there was like no wait, so much easier and the single riders queue goes even faster. I didn't mind waiting that much though actually because there's so much to see in the queue, it's like an attraction in itself.

I finally got to see him live 4 years later than originally planned :hugesmile:

Kerry 27-07-2011 09:25 PM

Last time I went to Alton Towers it was pretty quiet. Think the longest wait was 20 minutes for the Nemesis so I went on twice :D

Once waited three hours to get on Air at Alton Towers. The sign said it was only 40 minutes and we ended up being really late for the coach. Luckily, there was about 30 of us so we didn't actually get in that much trouble.

I bought the last three Harry Potter books at midnight too, I think they were about an hour and half wait each.

joeysteele 27-07-2011 09:58 PM

I think the longest I have been in a queue was for the London Eye,I think we were in the queue for tickets and then to get on for about an hour and a half.

Vicky. 27-07-2011 10:04 PM

3 hours for AIR at alton towers :bored:
