I didn't get there way early (about 15 min before 6), and there was already a line out the front door. I figured I was out of luck for the black mugs. I did see people walking out with black mugs in hand, and when I got to the door of the South Seas room, I saw Holden handing out #15. I counted the number of people in front of me, and if each couple got a mug, I would be #21 or 22. But when it was my turn, it turned out I was 20, so I got the last one. The strict rule was one per household, but based on the number of people in front of me, there must have been some people who passed on the black mug.
There was a couple in front of me before I got inside, but they got out of line to talk with some other couple. So I really lucked out!
You did get lucky! What a drag it would have been to be #21. I figured the price would be a deterrent for some, so I held out a little hope when I arrived; clearly, I didn't have a chance. But that's okay. It was so cool to get a chance to meet some of the people who's mugs I have collected and who's talent that I admire. And I did get this guy, along with Derek's and Headhunter's posters and a carved necklace from Lake Tiki.
