Curt Von Feldt: Sweat down her long neck I craved her with all my soul I've a thing for blondes
fatj: Beer Mecca beckons. This heathen hath no ticket... Westword the savior?
Original post: It was all such a blur. Within 45 minutes of their release on August 2, every ticket for the Annual booze-a-palooza that is the Great American Beer Festival had sold out. All of them. While some dreams were achieved, others were dashed. Plans were changed. Beers were poured out in small moments of silence. (We can't verify any of that.) But if you were one of those who barely missed the mark on getting your own tickets, don't fret: Westword has extras to the first night on Thursday, October 11 at the Colorado Convention Center, and we'd love to give them to you.
Keep reading for how to get your hands on them. (Spoiler: It requires a haiku.)
