WWDC is set to kick off in less than 90 minutes and the lines (and hype) building around the event have reached an all-new level of insanity.
Showing up a few hours early to the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco was not enough to secure a front row seat to this year’s keynote, thanks to the lines that are so huge you’d think a new iPhone is launching.
Check out how long the line was at 6 a.m.:
Some developers started lining up for the event as early as 2 a.m. I’ve never been to a WWDC keynote, but now I’m starting to feel glad that Apple hates Cult of Mac and never gives us an invite, because this looks like pure hell:

Once you get inside, it’s apparently even worse. Press and developers are packed like sardines waiting for one of the 7,000 seats in the auditorium.
