Went to the Alley Burger Truck tonight, it was in a parking lot at 10th Ave and 5th Street SW. Waited about an hour, but it was well worth the wait. Unreal burger! Pork and garlic sausage patty... I'm drooling just thinking about it.

I'm extremely impatient, and there are very few things that I'll wait in line for, let alone for an hour... but that burger was delicious and worth the wait.
An hour is probably better than whatever the lineups will be like tomorrow during the food truck fest!

I got there at 6:50 and got my burger around 7:30. According to their tweets, there was no lineup later on in the night (however they only had ~20 alley burgers left, which were gone within the next half hour).
Tried the alley burger and the full truck burger, both are quite good. The fries were really good as well.

The alley burger was 5 dollars however if you wanted the larger size I believe that was 8 dollars.

Alley Burgers are $5 for a single, $8 for a double (no choice of toppings). "The Whole Truck" (100% angus beef patty) is $6.50 for a single and $9 for a double (customers and choose their own toppings, with some being free and others costing $1 extra).
Here's a pic I snapped of the menu when I was there Tuesday night:

$25 for a t-shirt promoting their food truck? Really? You want people to pay premium prices for the priviledge of advertising for you? N F L

How is it different than buying a t-shirt promoting a professional sports team or a rock band?
