Apparently this thing is exceeding the producer’s expectations. And since there will now be a huge mob descending on UCF, they’ve decided to abandon tickets or any other forms of organization and decided to make it first-come-first-serve for the debate.

If you’re planning on coming as part of the Orlando Atheists & Freethinkers group, make sure you show up at the entrance to the UCF Arena by 6:15pm. There will be a table set up with a red balloon. We’ll have to go in as a group if we want to sit together.

If you can’t attend, check out the bottom of the notice below. There’s an email address for you to send your questions in. They’ll be selecting some of these for the debaters to respond to during the Q&A.

Here’s the update from TheGreatFaithDebate.com:
