So i am sooo stoked for the roo!!!!!!!...but there are some things im nervous about:
1: I am driving a ford e250 cargo van. There are 7 including myself but i only have 2 legal seatbelts. now my concern is that in the event i get pulled over i get tickets or upon entering the roo gate will we be question by authorities on the seating arangement? 2: All my occupants are 20 years old now we have no problem buying beer but is it going to be an isssue upon entry...i mean are they going to check our id's before we head in the gates or the lot. 3: Do i have enough cash together to make it i should have about 500 total saved for travel and inside the roo.

The seatbelt issue won't be a factor at the gate but, there's a really good chance that it might be a problem on the drive through Tennessee. TN has a mandatory seatbelt law and the cops are looking for any reason to pull Rooers over. The Roo staff will not check your IDs upon entry, so don't worry about that. How much cash you bring is really dependent on how much you plan to party. $500 a person is my usual allotment.

1. cops on the way in might care if it's not the front two seatbelts. they won't check at the gates...people will be taking them off anyway. 2.no. 3.depends what your doing...or how far you drive...but you can do it with 500 probably

I know im going to see her...lol j/k. My buddy and the rest of our caravan is their. including my 7 people, there are six or so there. My buddy sean has a 5 bedroom house there so we're going to pre-roo party. but we are heading out of orlando on tuesday evening, so we are gunna have lots of time.
Jeez, $500? Seriously? I mean, I can see $20-$30 a day on food easy... Plus beers, I guess... But damn. Are we talking about a lot of "extracurricular" purchases?

$500 is hopefully my maximum for bonnaroo expenses already spent $200 on the ticket and $50 on misc. stuff (not food) so i'm hopeing $250 will cover gas (splitting w/ four people in an '03 corolla), food, and then if there's any left over i'll get other stuff. can't afford any beer or any drugs tho

thanx for the reassurance guys.... youve put me at ease a little more. plus i did some research on TN traffic laws so that definatly helped. lookin forward to meetin a few of you at the roo.
I am looking at about 500 for non travel/food expenses, I don't drink, so that saves a ton, and we bring all of our food but the brownies! I also enjoy other methods of intoxication, and I will probably spend 100 on lemonade, both frozen and regular throughout the weekend.
Does Tennessee still have the law that only the front seat passengers have to have a seat belt on? That was how it was when I lived there. Anyone? Bueller?
The front two seats are the drivers responsibility i.e. his/her seat and their passenger. Those over 18 in the back are responsible for themselves. If they are not belted they receive the ticket not the driver.
