Is there any sense in buying (out-of-the money) put options, to make sure you can taste some of that sweet lucre that your overlords are getting?

If you like gambling, sure. Market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent, or something like that
You're normally not allowed to trade derivatives during the IPO lockup period. Otherwise it would defeat the whole point.
Options are not initially available. Conveniently.
