Well one I'll never forget happened in '05 at Peter Rowan and Crucial Reggae's set. I look over and there is this wooked out hippie woman sitting under a tree pumping breast milk out of herself. This was both gross and entertaining so I kept looking over and her friend comes back with a couple cups of coffee. They both proceed to use the newly pumped breast milk as creamer for their coffee. Absolutely disgusting and hilarious at the same time.
Monday morning in 04 when everyone was leaving, this really really hot girl was walking around completely naked handing out free shots of Jack Daniels. It was a fitting end to a great roo.
Cut'n'paste from my post in the Shakedown thread ('cos it wasn't on Shakedown):
Remember the glass blower who was there in '05? (Maybe he's there every year, but 05 is my only Roo to date) Not on Shakedown, but in Centeroo. He had some beautiful glass work for sale including some dildos that were at least 10" long, if not more. As I was browsing the display a guy picks one up and yells at his partner who's up at the other end, "Honey, look at the cute miniature penises".

Ooh I've got another one, even though it wasn't actually at Bonnaroo.
My BonnaBuddy and I left last year at about 8pm on Sunday, I think, and we stopped every few hours to stretch and wake up and switch drivers. At our like 2am stop somewhere in Southern Virginia my friend had like two huge Cokes, a coffee, and a No-Doz pill to stay awake (so, something like 500mg of caffeine). He started talking reeeeeeally fast for the next couple hours. It was hilarious.
Last year on Saturday (Buddy Guy, Beck and Radiohead) I got a little too drunk near the end of the night. I also ate something my 'roo buddy bought for me. I stayed up all night drinking whiskey with our neighbors, come dawn they wake me up and point me back towards my tent. I take two steps and fall sideways onto someone else's tent, flattening it completely and crushing them. I stand up walk about five more feet and do the exact same thing to my sisters tent. I crawl over unzip a tent and crawl inside, and pull the blankets up over me. I'm laying there for about ten seconds before I remember " I don't have an air mattress..." I open my eyes and I'm looking directly into the face of my other neighbors girlfriend. She stars screaming when she realizes I'm not her boyfriend, and I start screaming back when I realize I have no idea where I am. I sit there for another minute or so as my friends come get me from the tent. They pull me back to my own tent and I pass out face down in a pile of peanuts (long story). I wake up the next day without any memory of that morning. As I go around our camp cleaning up, people keep walking by saying "Hey, It's Godzilla!" After my friends explained what happened I felt ashamed and extremely embarrassed. No one was mad though, not the people I squashed or the people whos tent I crawled into. They even said they appreciated us warning them that we were going to be doing some wild stuff later, and that I shouldn't feel bad about it, because it was Bonnaroo, and no one was mad. This is why I love this festival so much, you can go completely out of your mind and people just smile and help you back up. i can't wait until 'Roo this year.

Last year during Radiohead...All my friends and I were super close. So close we were all snapping pictures and what not, amazed by the closeness. I exchanged my memory card for another one, and thought nothing of it! After the show, and into MMJ's set, I decided to recount all my stuff. As it would go...I was missing a memory card. Not only a bunch of pics of Bonnaroo so far, but also some of my daughter and the early stages of her life. A video of her birth, first christmas, birthday...etc. I had them saved on a disc (somewhere) but the memory card was my reliable source....and so easy to use.....
so i was devestated. I asked to get into the main stage later that night, just to check if I can look on the ground (abouts where i was from memory). The security gaurds were quite rude and said no in several different places around the main stage. They even said that the clean vibes vacumn machines had already swept everything up! (big lawn mower things)
I got a VIP moderator and sked them, and somehow the poor girl got me in the mainstage area. For like a half hour I tried to remember where i was in relation to the video screens, the stage, and the metal flooring in front of the stage. I thought i was in the right spot, but nothing.... then all of a sudden in the middle of the field..a small memory card, smaller then a dime...just gleaming at me.
I couldn't belive it. EVen after everyone left, and stepped all over it...I got it back. It worked, and I cried. The VIP moderator was very excited for me. One of the security gaurds who wouldn't let me in had come over to see how i got in.....I shoved the memory card in his face, and said' Dude..all you had to do was walk me over here...and instead you were a jerk" ...Happy Bonnarooooooooooooooooooo
To this day I have that memory card and all those memories of bonaroo and especially my young daughters life..... Thank You VIP MODERATOR....

during tom petty me and my friend mark were sitting on chairs we brought in and really really enjoying the show. eventually mark got the mucnhies and sighted a ben and jerry's stand right next to us litterally like one chair over. he went to get some ice cream and i didn't see mark for literally 25 minutes. apperantly he soemhow got lost on the way back, even thoguh it was ltierally a 10 second walk. the really weird thing is he eventually found his way back in a crowd that large
2005 Late night. Probably a few hours before sunrise, Trey had ended, my friends had gone to bed, i had been transfixed by the sonic forest so i couldn't really go anywhere, and was just hanging out. I walked over to the cinema tent, had to leave that because some horror movie was on. I walked out kinda behind the tent, there was this Tiki Bar looking thing set up, and standing behind it were two completely naked, gorgeous girls, just laughing their asses off. I thought i had lost my mind; no one else was paying them any attention, but they were definitely there, laughing, screaming etc. Absolutely bizarre.
Later that night, after i got back to our campsite, i went to use the bathroom in one of those porta-potties, and there was a couple having sex in the one next to me. It wasn't normal sex though. They would go at it for a few seconds, and then he would proposition her for oral sex, she would decline, he would beg, she would decline, they would proceed with normal sex. This is all i heard, i started cracking up hearing this and they got quiet.

omg sex in a porta-potty
i think i'd rather just do it out in the open if those were my only two options

So last year, all my friends and I were out at the late night Lyrics Born/Common/Blackaliscious show, and my good friend had to go to the bathroom. So, he did as any normal person would do and went to use a porta-john. After Common got off stage, we realized it had been an hour and he wasn't back. I took the good friend role and went back to our site to try and find him. He wasn't there. I went back to the show and told my friends. Towards the end of the set we left and looked around the porta-johns to try and locate any passed out people. No luck. We gave up around 5 AM, and figured that he would eventually come to his senses and go back to the campsite. Around 8 AM I heard someone stumbling around the site. This perplexed-faced soul was my friend. Upon asking him where he had been the past five hours he replied, "I really don't know".

Something very similar happened to my friend while we were there. The night of Tom Petty, after the show he gets hung up talking to this girl, but I think he's still behind me. No big deal I think and walk back to camp. He has no sense of direction and wanders off towards shakedown village. On the way, he says he saw a man dressed like Uncle Sam handing out samples of something. He eats three and keeps walking. He says he tripped out and could only see swirling colors for hours. When he came to he was standing by the side of the interstate wearing someone else's jacket. He finally makes it back to camp at around seven the next morning, crawls into the tent, kisses us all on the cheek and then passed out for the next eight hours. For months afterwards he wouldn't tell us where he had been, because he wasn't sure himself.
Well one I'll never forget happened in '05 at Peter Rowan and Crucial Reggae's set. I look over and there is this wooked out hippie woman sitting under a tree pumping breast milk out of herself.

During Radiohead last year... close to the stage on the right. I see this guy bent over coming through the crowd. Hes got a flash light looking down moving pretty fast. He finally gets to us, and we see he has his hand over his mouth. Poor guy, he just kept going. Probably the nicest thing i have ever seen.
^^ i was kinda confused on that too, but im guessing its sarcasim, as from what it seems like the guy was going to throw up? or had just thrown up? why would you need a flashlight to throw up?
yeah he was holding throw in his mouth. and it was nice because he didn't want anyone to have to sit next to it. he had a flash light trying to find the end of the crowd.
Not really that great of a story but did anyone else see the dude that was by the overflowing water trailer shinning a flashlight across the puddle and jumpin around all crazy yelling "puddle, puddle here, puddle, puddle, puddle, watch out for the puddle..."
I saw him once at like midnight then like 3 hours later. I think he was here all night. that was pretty memorable...
