Hoppers:

Hoppers hits $231k in pre-sales for Friday. Sligtly below the 239k i had penciled in but still a good increase.

For T-1 i would love to see it get as close to $400k as possible but something around $350-370k might be more realistic now.

Maoyan and Taopiao are projecting a $2.5M opening day on Friday.
