you know, I got totally worried earlier today; I called at least fifteen people trying to figure out how I was getting to roo and I figured out that my options are getting to nashville (without a car) wednesday night or waiting until thursday to leave from sevierville (near knoxville, tn). my question to the world who sees this is: which should I do? my fate is in your hands, fellow humans. I don't want to wait until thursday to leave because who knows when we'll get there, right? I'm not sure how to react
well you have 2 options.. both are pretty resonable in their own way.
first... you can get there wednesday night. not a bad time. I get there wednesday night every year. BUT you will have to stay out in BFE; about a 20 minute walk to centeroo. but it's also nice because the camping spots are bigger, and the people are really nice. never had any type of problem out there.
second... you get there thursday. you may have a really long line to wait in. and if you wait long enough, you may end up further away than BFE. friend of mine said he had about a 30-45 minute walk last year and he got in around 6pm on thursday. but you also have the possibility of being like 5 minutes away. its really just luck of the draw.
First off, welcome to the board -- karma to get you going!
Like Matt implied, it's really just a crapshoot. The odds of ending up in BFE are much higher on Wednesday, but you hear a ton of exceptions and lucky/unlucky situations from just about all points of arrival. There have been countless threads (for good reason) on this topic and every single one seems to arrive at the same conclusion: nobody really knows!
