Sorry if this has been covered. I see the whole Tent-Only section is a good option if you don't have to carry a lot. Which parking lots (by name, ie. The Gimp). I plan on getting to Roo at around 11:30 PM on Wed Night.
This word also has a underground meaning once you break it down. Let’s take “Bonn” for example and it actually turns into the word “Bone”. We all know gays use this word to describe the action of when they are fecal fisting their Cuban cabana boy at their sex bath house parties. Now let’s look at Roo, “Roo” is short for “Kangaroo”.So put the full true message together and you get“Bone a Kangaroo
You can't go in until 6am on Thursday. I'd suggest getting there early and going camp-only or just winging it wherever they place you - a long walk is a long walk, and hopefully you dont have some sort of physical ailment that prevents you from walking 20-30 minutes (maybe more) to get to Centeroo. Either way, I'm sure you'll have a good time! No worries.

you don't have a choice of where to camp - they put you where they want to and if you get there Wednesday night - you will get put into BFE - then if you want, you can go to tent only on Thursday morning
A correction: although Thursday morning is the official time, in order to diffuse some of the line they do let people in Wednesday night around nightfall. (But you do end up in James Bond camping. I like it, it's self-contained, there are some trees and they've made improvements in the hike to Centeroo.)
Meg, do they really not let you into tent only until Thursday morning?

Can you guys elaborate a little more on this BFE? I thought getting there at Midnight would be fairly early. Should I go later or earlier to avoid this "BFE"?
BFE just means you have a long walk to the shows. It is quiet and partially shady so the camps are nice but the walk can be a beast, especially in the heat and after a late night.
They fill up one BFE (lower right on the map) first for traffic reasons so you are all but guaranteed this area if you arrive before 6-7am Thursday. After that it's a crapshoot as to where you will be.
Word from people who've been there is they keep you in BFE until it's full so no one gets run over (there's a one lane bridge into BFE) and don't open Tent Only until Thursday AM aroung 8-9am.

Okay, so arriving later (ie. Thursday around Noon), I'll probably get ushered into a better campsite than I would if I showed up really early?
I for one don't think the early-arrival BFE is such a bad place. I had a blast out there, myself. It does suck walking all the way back there (sometimes you'll be thinking "holy shit, am I really only halfway?), but it's so quiet, and the people back there are all early arrivals...i.e., people stoked to be at Roo.
It's what you make of it. Unless you hate walking.

Yeah last year I got in Wednesday night and was up early Thursday ready to move to tent only. We had to wait in a long ass line until about 8-8:30 before we could start moving our gear over there.

Sucky, especially since I'd need multiple trips from BFE. Looks like I'm staying put!!!!
