Far less so than I was expecting. A couple people cutting in line with sob stories. People were pretty calm though. Partly I think because it was expected (that changed my outlook considerably) and partly (I speculate) there was a little bit of ‘we’re all in this moment together’ spirit like you see during a big weather event or tragedy of some kind, though I don’t want to exaggerate that too much. The most stressful part was when the line was snaking through the front atrium. It didn’t look like a line, it looked like a crowd. The only thing that made it a line was everyone knowing who was in front of them and who was behind.
