If they are open just like Vito pecoraro said 5am or earlier. You will not be alone trust me on that some people arrive the day before when I went. Bring a chair a comfy one. If I'm not mistaken, they give tickets out a hour before they open. The line will wrap around the building. You will probably sent home to come back. The earlier you go the earlier the earlier you come back. Also IF YOU DON'T NEED PHYSICAL PLATES DO IT ONLINE.
Yes get there like 5am and you'll get a ticket for your time to return later that day.
Don't know if lakewood is open on Saturday but if do go plan on being there really early.
