Bloom or anyone who goes. How easy is it to get in? What time should I show up? If anyone is going post here. So we can meet up.

I am a big-time NFL junkie bit I have never understood the enjoyment of going to the draft.

I've gone a bunch of times, use to be you could get there early (5 or 6am) the morning of the draft, the last few years you have to almost stand in line the night before. Last year we went to the ESPN Zone in Times Square, ton of fans cheering, better food and drink. It is a fun time and if I decide to go this year that will be the plan. But honestly with the later start I'm thinking of just playing golf in the morning and watching it at home. Half the fun before was a guys trip in, do the draft until the end of the first round, hit a couple bars and still catch the 9pm bus and be home by midnight. Now with the late start the first round will barely be over by 8 or 9. Way to go NFL, screw up a fan friendly experience for TV.

I would love to see them have at the Hoosierdome, Ford Field, or somewhere similar. See what kind of crowd they would have then.
