They want to buy something so they get up early and wait in line. I guess you could say get a life but many people waste time doing stupid things like posting on message boards? Waiting in line with a group of friends can be fun, you bond with everyone in line. I don't personally wait in line very often for things although i did to get good seats to the Duke/MD game this year but i dont blame people for waiting in line for a few hours to get something they really want....also wish i had the money to buy an iPhone
