If you can get there earlier than midnight, you can keep eels in some seaweed and on ice and they will stay alive for over 24 hours. I keep eels in one of those minnow buckets where the smaller bucket fits into the larger one. I drilled a number of holes (from inside-out), about the size of regular phillips head screwdriver into the inside bucket, so the eels' slime could drain out. It works great and keeps them from drowning.
