People have been rescued off mountains with that app. Sending a string of GPS coordinates is too complicated and it’s hard to see if you’ve made a mistake. That is really granular. There are like twenty of them just in my house. I wish that they would have at least made some fun ones.

I suppose that they want to be a part of history and the more people, the more respect. In hindsight, it would have made more sense to have tickets online or at a kiosk which gives you a time to show up and a 30 minute window either way and then an overflow first come first served to fill in any gaps. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/breaking-the-queen-is-unwell-has-died-8-sep-2022/971212)._
