Though San Francisco’s Union Square Apple Store didn’t develop an iPhone waiters line until yesterday evening, the line has grown to quite the monstrosity as of this morning, running from the store’s front door for a good block and then rounding the corner. There are tents, a bizarre pie-throwing booth, and the people look restless.
I didn’t get a shot off before my bus rounded the corner en route to Caltrain. Anyone out there in line already? Who’s got photos? What’s the mood?
