I watched my roo friend David creep up Scooby Doo style on this REAL wizard. He followed him for like 50 feet then got scared he was going to turn around and cast a spell on him. Only at roo.
so i had tara chill with him while i went back and refilled my camelback cause dude drank ALL of it then we went and watched willie...and met boz and meg....
I read your whole post and was thinking - OMG that is so fucked up - then got to the very last line and busted out laughing - because it is just so random - LMAO
During the middle of Pearl Jam after one of their songs (not one of their most popular songs even) this dude in front of me yell, " Yeah, play it again."
During Metallica this girl on some substance in front of me is handed Barnoculars, they look like binaculars but they hold alcohol. The lid was off and she proceeded to pour liquor into her eye. It was hilarious.
I just remembered this guy that came up to us when we were leaving Kanye. His eyes were RED and he was kind of stumbling around. He sort of vacantly asked how we were and then as he stumbled onward he looked backed at me and said "I'm walkin' around with a flip flop." And he continued to mumble about his missing sandal until he turned off toward more unsuspecting folk. It was also here that we saw the slip and slide behind some porta-johns. We knew nothing good could come from it when it was sloped TOWARD the potties.
I'm taking several of the Bonnaroo virgins in my group on a Centeroo tour. We decided we were going to catch a few What Made Milwaukee Famous songs and move on.
We got near the tent and saw this guy tearing off his clothes. It reminded me of the Mr. Show "Altered State of Druggachusettes" sketch. He just yanked his pants around his ankles, kicked off his shoes and starting running around in his birthday suit. He ran up to a hot dog stand, tried stealing one from the vendor, and some security guys yelled at him. They gave him a bottle of water, of which he took a couple swigs before swinging it around and getting the staff and vendor wet.
I think that's about all the rookies had to see to know what kind of weekend they were in for.
Not sure if this has been referenced yet, but did anybody see Prince?! Dude was dressed in a tight crushed velvet purple suit and white blouse whilst quoting Chappelle's Show lines in people's faces. Classic.
I saw him wandering around Sunday night. I told my friends he was dressed as Prince, but nobody believed me.

"Shoot the J! Shoot it!" "Pancakes, blouses..." "You just met Prince at Bonnaroo. How's it feel?!"
on saturday morning some random guy leaving the port-a-pottys covered in what i hope was mud says in a yell " i cant get this damn thing to flush". it was one of the most funny things i saw all weekend.

On driving in at 9:30am on Thursday, dude was getting taken out on a medical cart, flat on his back - now that's full throttle - no pacing himself there.
Passed out wookie with a huge erection, everyone getting a picture with it. Girl dancing around it like a maypole...
Heard in camping "there's nothing like getting real high and crushing a whole sleeve of oreos"
Guy suddenly starts sprinting through the campground for no apparent reason, trips and does a headfirst Lenny Dysktra style slide. Waits a few minutes before attempting to stand up again and wobbles off.
Water balloons being thrown into the crowd on Sunday and this guy's girlfriend gets hit pretty hard on the shoulder and the balloon didn't break. So the boyfriend picks it up and fires it back at the original thrower. I mean, this thing is on a line from 25 yards out and drills him right in the face, explodes and knocks his sunglasses several feet in the air. The expression on the guy's face was priceless - payback time!
Just too many to mention...we were laughing all weekend.
Here are a few my buddy and I relived on the drive home:
“You are not a mute” My neighbor’s friend to me at our camp on Saturday. Apparently Friday night between shows I was sitting silently and napping in between shows.
“Hey, you are the guy in all of our pictures from last night” A girl in passing to me and a buddy.
Some guy was passing through our camp and stopped for a while looking at me and a friend, after a good ten minutes he said “I am so lost” In an attempt to help we take out our maps and ask where he was going. He responds with silence and begins to walk away to finally say WHERE IS MY HOODIE! This went on for a good 20 minutes one morning. We found it so funny…
EDIT: If you are the person that i was in the pictures with let me know...i would love to see them!
did anybody see Prince?! Dude was dressed in a tight crushed velvet purple suit and white blouse whilst quoting Chappelle's Show lines in people's faces. Classic.
I saw him wandering around Sunday night. I told my friends he was dressed as Prince, but nobody believed me.
Yeah, dude was like 225lbs in a way-tight suit. He had like 20 people videotaping and snapping pics as he sang "When Doves Cry" on repeat on the roof of a van.
...another great quote as my buddy Jumbie is trying to describe the crowd's frustration after Kanye, "Basically, what Kanye did was wait for 100,000 people's buzz to wear off, and then rubbed his ass in everyone's face!"
We saw a guy in a suit made out of crown royal bags. It very well put together, I was very impressed.
We also saw a guy on shakedown with a sign that read ... "I bet you $1 you'll read this" and on the back it said "Get a Job".
We were all sitting around camp in the heat of the day when I got out my video camera and asked everyone how they were doing. The conversation went as follows.
Me: So how do you feel? Chris: Its Pretty God damn Hot! My balls are sticking to my leg. Me: Ewww...So Melissa how do you feel? Melissa: My balls are sticking to my leg too. (Laughter) Me:and you Glen? Glen: My balls are sticking to her leg. (everybody laughs)
Our friend Riley was at Phil Lesh and a girl walks up to him and asks for al ight. He didn't have one and she said "That's cool" and turned to walk away. But she turned back to him and, as serious as she could be, said "Just so you know, you have bugs all over your face" and left.
I saw a guy wearing a table runner with the tags still on it. He had just cut a hole out of it and put it on.
A friend of a friend was tripping at Metallica and was seriously concerned something was wrong with his flip-flops so he kept taking them on and off and staring at them. He also believed the lights on the stage were coming to get him. He left after about five songs because he couldn't handle the flip-flop and light situation.

some dood came up to me and was like..."hey, do you want a hot dog comstume?".....my immediate response was, "hell yea"......its not everyday that some dude offers you a hot dog costume.
so....if if any of you saw a dood jumping around and dancing all crazy in hot dog costume during widespread panic, it was me.
