Now, I'm very familiar with the iPhone launch day lines. Judge me as you will, but since 2011, I've stood in line for hours to get a new iPhone - partly because I think it's a little crazy and fun on a personal level, and partly because I want to write and report on the newest iPhones for my job. (It's mostly the former, to be honest.)
I've stood in line at AT&T stores, Verizon stores, and plenty of different Apple stores around New York City. But this experience at Apple's newest store in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, was by far the worst.
