I love the Dollar Spot! First place I always go at Target
YOU COULD ALWAYS WEAR YOUR TENNESSEE SWEATSHIRT.
or
VIRGINIA TECH SWEATSHIRT.
I've not decided which way I'm leaning that night...
Body heat! I foresee lots of cuddles...Hope no one has personal space issues.

Of course! Great idea! Everyone would be soooo toasty-warm, while still maintaining the use of their hands. It's a win-win.

oh my GOSH! Best idea ever, lightning_on_my_banjo!
Those body warmers are awesome. You stick em to the inside of your shirt and they keep you so toasty. I used them a lot last winter when my heat cut out every single day and I was to cheap to buy a silly electric blanket. In fact, they are much better then an electric blanket because you can walk around in them. Yup, I'm definitely packing those for asheville. Heat packs, a Team Avett snuggie, and I'll be all set.
I won't be there, but maybe everyone will know what I mean when I suggest "antifreeze" (not the stuff for your car). But always in moderation! You don't want to wake up the next afternoon and check the boards and realize you were "that guy." Keep warm everyone, and have fun (as if that has to be stated).

Murray, you took the words out of my mouth, er, hands. lol Ridiculous
Three words that became hard to say...
Team and Avett and Snuggie
I'm going in after the Tech vs. TN game. OR... when the boys come out... whichever is first.
yeah... i'm gonna be in asheville at 10-11 in the morning, to check things out... maybe, if folks are in line by then we'll get in..
If not, we'll go find a nice place to chill in town maybe get some food, then get in line.

Burn the questions. Burn the shame.
Battier1 -- try Walmart, by the sporting/hunting section.
We sell them at Walgreens. Usually on an endstand with the heaters and Duraflame logs.

Burn the questions. Burn the shame.
I missed the part about these being "super" hot hands. I checked the ones we sell at work today and they are "HotHands2" and they say they'll last 10 hours. Which should be plenty long enough.
If someone will kindly remind me a few days before NYE, I'll buy a couple dozen (or more if they go on sale) and hand them out first come, first serve.

so does no one know of any local coffee roasters in the area?
Taryn,
I know a few great coffee places, but unfortunately they aren't near the venue, really. I'm sure there are a few, but I couldn't recommend them as I haven't been to them. Looks like you might have to settle for Starbucks.
One word: Thermos. A good one will keep your home-brewed coffee hot for every bit of the line time.

"We took a pickup, a tent, and a shotgun," recalls Scott. "We went out thinking it was a wild frontier."
Or a flask of NC's finest 201 proof firewater!

"If I were walking through the rain, and I hear you call my name, I would break into a run without a pause."
flask of whisky (scotch is my fave, but i'm an equal opportunity imbiber,) a thermos of coffee, a snuggie, and an empty plastic bottle (for the lads and adventurous (or skilled, i suppose,) ladies,) and that's all one really needs!
