Didnt have a prblem bringing mine in once last year
I think I came up with a new game to play at festivals.
Print off the list of "NO's!" and then cross them off one by one as you see them. No dogs allowed? There's a hippy with a puppy! No fireworks allowed? I saw someone set off some in the back of the What stage field.
And clearly you aren't a rapist (I hope) but the way you pop into any thread where a woman happens to be lamenting her lack of ride to Bonnaroo and tell them to come hop on your bus sounds extremely rapey.
unfortunately my bag is one of the tiny ones that is obviously a camelbak (can't stand to have a full backpack all day)
i was planning on bringing it anyway and playing it by ear, so i guess this is good news
anyway, point remains that it's insane to me that they are prohibited, even if just on paper
agreed.
I would be surprised that if you got denied with a camelbak in one security line and went to the next that you wouldnt get in there with it. But honestly I didnt even have anyone question mine last year.

The whole "beer only in the beer gardens" thing doesn't even bother me. I've had enough drunk idiots spill their Bud Light on me where I won't miss it.

I got busted going through the gate at Roo twice the last two years. One was with corn and corn accessories. The gentlemen was kind enough to give it all back to me and I went through another line. The second was this past year on my Sunday drunk day. The lady decided to look under my camelback bladder and found beer and like 4 premixed jack and cokes. She even said, "oh so you're trying to insult my intellegence"? Like damn, it's nothing personal I'm just trying to get wasted on vacation. I repacked my bag andwalked through right beside her. I made sure she saw that her coworker was WAY cooler than she was.

This year (at Roo) I had the first time where someone questioned everything I said and treated me like a criminal just for walking in with a smile on my face. He thoroughly searched through my entire bag and gave me the third degree about everything. After like five minutes of searching he found a secret spot that nobody in the history of using it at festivals has found and he felt a few things....asked me about it and then said he isn't going to waste time to go through that then let me in.
I was so confused. He hassled me so much and then when he found something after an extensive search he just ignored it and let me in.
I've been hassled about the pills I take when I get a migraine multiple times at Bonnaroo. I have smuggled cans of beer into centeroo a number of times without ever being hassled. Makes no sense.

I had a woman this year on Sunday at Bonnaroo ask me to take out my wallet, and then she proceeded to look through it. Luckily, she didn't feel the beer I'd stuffed in my back left pocket.

That's messed up. I've had a couple of gate people try that crap, I put them in their place immediately. "Why you trying to see how much money I've got?!"
They have no right to go through your wallet I refuse and they give up. Power trip'd

I had a guy in 2011 take everything out of my backpack. Searched every nook and craney. The whole thing took almost 10mins and a long line formed where there was none before. After getting everything packed back up he gives me a pat down. Tries to take my wallet out to look through. Told him no and put my wallet back. Then he wanted to see my pack of smokes... which had a prerolled in there (need something when you're sitting in the sun building a drum). He took the j and put it in his shirt pocket, then put my pack of cigs in his cargo pocket.
I was beyond pissed at this point and started yelling. Security guy calls a cop over and tells him to cut my band and throw me out. I calmly explain what happend to the cop and he turns to the security guy and tells him to let me in and give me my cigs back. Then he makes the security guy leave with him and reports him to his supervisor.
Very odd 15mins at the gate. Never had anything like that happen before or after.
