Ok, 'fess up. Which one of you is the guy waiving the Laker's cap? Shame on you for squeezing a little kid up against the glass just so you can take a pic with Lin! Though it doesn't look like there's any room to back up

I think I figured out another reason why those people were pressing against the glass to be the first ones in. Jeremy gave out free Lakers tickets to the first 50 people (pre-season, but still). |

That picture was taken at the end of the event according to posts and tweets of fans that were there. The organizers gave numbered placeholders to fans who started to line up early afternoon, and the holders of #'s 48&49 tweeted a picture of their cards well in advance of the event opening. So the tickets were effectively bespoken by early arrivals long before Lin arrived.
I'm not sure who the fans are in Lin's selfie. Organizers had those wanting to meet Lin line up outside the Mall. Then, only 25 number-holders at a time were allowed to go inside the Mall and que up outside of the store. They stopped handing out numbers to fans in the outside que about 5:15pm so that there was enough time for the others to meet Lin before the 6:00pm scheduled end of the event.
BTW, the tickets seem to be for the Lakers preseason game with GSW. |

The local FOX station was there...it looked like the line was pretty long. It snaked around the mall. |

FYI, his shift ends at 6pm, so if you want him to measure you for shoes, get there early. |
