"We’re living about 3 hours away from Richland right now, so my daughter Raechel and I loaded up and left at 5:45 to wait in line.We got there about 9, and got in a VERY long line that went around the corner from Hastings, around McDonald’s, looped back around the block, where we got in line. My daughter was quite a little trouper, and we took turns carrying our lunch bag. Hastings opened at 10, so they were able to get people lined up inside the store."Read Katie's full report at Red County.
"As we were standing in line waiting, someone told us Sarah was greeting people from the back of the line..."

Sarah's appeal is amazing. The Salina Kansas Chamber of Commerce announced today that the Feb. 5th speech by Sarah is now officially sold out.

They had to temporarily suspend ticket sales a few days after announcing her appearance to sort out the incredible demand for tickets. Apparently, almost all the tickets were purchased by Chamber members with only a few sold to the general public because of huge demand. The largest attendance they ever had in the past for this annual event was in 2002 when former President George H W Bush spoke, and 2,200 tickets were sold.
