# REMINDER: All your Ignite Portland 5 tickets are belong to you tomorrow at 10 AM

![Ignite Portland 5 tickets](https://i0.wp.com/siliconflorist.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/ticket-150px.gif?w=925)Tomorrow, [Ignite Portland](http://igniteportland.com "Ignite Portland") will [open ticket “sales” for Ignite Portland 5](http://www.igniteportland.com/2009/01/get-ready-tickets-to-ignite-portland-5-become-available-feb-5-at-10am/ "Ignite Portland 5 tickets") at 10:00 AM sharp.

Ignite Portland 5 on February 5th. Get it? It’s a mnemonic device.

No, not that [Mnemonic device](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113481/ "Johnny Mnemonic"). This [mnemonic device](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemonic "Mnemonic"). And the 10? 5 + 5 my friend. Easy easy easy.

Now where was I?

Oh yes. I say “sales,” because you don’t have to pay anything for the tickets. They’re free.

Okay okay. I don’t want to get into some kind of neo-sociological argument about how you pay for Ignite with your attention and social capital and whatnot. They’re the “don’t cost you any cash” free. That kind of free.

Or as the hip (drinking age) kids like to say “Free as in beer.”

To quote [a famous Portlander](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Peterson "Tom Peterson"), “Free is a very good price.”

I don’t know about you, but I’m going to be camping out in front of my computer—all night long—just to save my place in line. No cuts.
