The Front


Your 15 minutes are up: Justin Durell waits at the front of the line in the crowded basement hallway of the Faubourg to get tickets for Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, which went on sale Wednesday at 3 p.m. Durrell, 18, has been in line since 9 p.m. Monday, when he pitched his tent outside the Faubourg with a sign reading "The Star Wars line begins here." Durrell proudly told the Mirror he had been interviewed by the Gazette, CFCF, CBC and other media--but was stumped when asked if he was doing this for the tickets or for the celebrity.
