Munich - Instead of sleeping in, many Munich residents had other plans this Saturday (8.2.): They left for the city center early in the morning.
The reason for the rush is not the start of sales of a new iPhone *. The people of Munich set out to get unusual pieces from the costume sale of the Bavarian State Opera.

Bavarian State Opera costume sales: Queuing in front of the National Theater in Munich
However, Amiri does not need to be afraid of not getting a bargain - at least when it comes to the answers to her Twitter post. "Oh, that will be fine - there is so much that they can't buy everything in front in the queue," writes one user.
Another comment shows that queuing is even more professional: "All beginners, nobody has a folding chair, thermos flask and a blanket with them."

Perhaps other Munich residents who, as late risers, also want to sell their costumes, take the suggestion to heart and bring a folding chair with them, which makes waiting more pleasant. The National Theater is still open until 2 p.m.
