Dark Lord Day 2010 Poster

Date: April 24, 2010

Overview

Dark Lord Day 2010 was held on Saturday, April 24th. An estimated 12,000 beer fans attended, making it one of the highest attended Dark Lord Days. The huge crowds forced Three Floyd's to make big changes to the festival in 2011. In previous years, the line to purchase Dark Lord stretched either North up Indiana Parkway towards Superior Drive, or South down Indiana Parkway towards Progress Ave. This year however, two lines formed; one from the North and one from the South. These two lines converged upon the brewery parking lot and combined into a mass of confusion. These lines were also mixed up with the draft and food lines also present in the parking lot. Lack of barriers, or direction from Three Floyd's staff resulted in much confusion as to what line went where.

Another issue this year was the use of counterfeit tickets. Since all Golden Tickets were identical, with no barcode or unique identifier, they were easily counterfeited. Three Floyd's staff became aware of this issue, but decided to honor counterfeits as many people purchased them online, not realizing they were fakes. As a result, the allotment had to be cut from 4 bottles to 3 bottles around 3:00 pm.
