I didn't see anyone start this yet, but I have always liked hearing everyone's favorite quotes from the weekend. Here's a few of mine.
From OCMS: "We're from Nashville, TN which is just up the road a bit, so welcome to our part of the world. Good liquor, great music, pretty women. Tennessee sounds good to me, gotdammit"
From our neighbors: "So what's the craziest thing you have seen so far, man?" "I saw two people quacking at Bassnectar."
From Gogol Bordello: "I want to see a real quacking mosh pit. None of this dancing Leno."
Usually, my favorite quotes are written on the bathroom walls. I don't know who would take the time in those hell holes to write a witty coment, but thanks for the entertainment. My favorites this year...
Hey Spud, call me back...Dougie (what are the odds Spud goes into that exact porta potty?)

Us to our neighbors: So where are you from? Neighbor: Well I lived in Colorado for three days. Then I went on tour Us: Oh, you're a musician? Neighbor: Nah, I just hit up all the festivals selling t-shirts.
Guy en route to SCI: I hear there is a giant T-Rex over there. That is where I will be
Me: So if this your first Bonnaroo? Random 50 year old guy with a woman of the same age: See well I'm single and let's just say I do very well for myself. I was gonna go last year but then I saw Montreal Indie Fest and that looked cool and then the girl I was gonna go to Roo with was like let's hook up and I was like hell no so I got screwed out of... (passes out)
Someone in the Arcade Fire pit line: I was just over at Family Camping. That place is insane. There's these hippies tripping out with their eight year olds selling acid. It's like that episode of Chapelle's Show.
50 Year old mom at the Nicole Atkins show: I really wish we didn't do family camping. All our neighbors do is party and these toddlers run wild.
Man at the Sonic stage before Nicole Atkins' set: Hey do you think I could get up there and talk a little bit? I have a lot to say. I'm kind of a philosopher. Guy setting up: It's really not up to us. Man: It was a yes or no question and you didn't say no (wife pulls him away)
Kinda near the Cinema Tent at 4:30 AM: Pictures with my dog. $5.
Me before Shpongle: So did you take anything before this show? Girl: Not really. Just some molly.
Man to his wife inside that place where they have drum circles (which is located next to the breast painting for cancer booth): No babe, it's just too hot outside. I need to stay in the shade a bit longer Then to me after she leaves: There's nothing in this world I love more than painted boobies. I been taking pictures all day.
Neighbor: I don't get how I wasn't able to bring in one oz of sunscreen and there's a guy walking around with a parrot on his shoulder.
During Bassnecter: Woah are you from Baltimore? Me: Yeah Other kid: Do you know Will D____? Me: Yeah... Kid: Yeah dude I met you at a party on Charles Street like 6 months ago. How you been man?

In line to get in, we kept driving over the rumble strips. Our female companion said it felt kinda good, so the line all weekend was "Oh Kia! Ohhh Kia, you're so good! OH KIA!!!"
Woman waiting in line for a porta-potty, sees the Out of Order one: "Fuck it, I'm going in. Someone guard the door!"
Before Girl Talk, girl looks behind her to see a guy standing there: "You'll do"
During Bassnecter: Woah are you from Baltimore? Me: Yeah Other kid: Do you know Will D____? Me: Yeah... Kid: Yeah dude I met you at a party on Charles Street like 6 months ago. How you been man?
Australian guy I met during Eminem: Christ, you're Baltimore too? Me: Yep, and my partner. (introduced them) (As he shook partners hand) Christ almighty, is that all this place has? People from Maryland? I travel all the way across the world to a gigantic festival, and my neighbors are from Maryland, these people over here are from Maryland, and now I've met two fruits from Baltimore. Who next? Me: You sir, are awesome.

"I don't think I've ever heard of quality Salisbury steak." - by VIP bathrooms, random girl's response to her friend's story about Salisbury steak
"I wouldn't know his penis, but I would recognize his face anywhere." - Bunny, during a discussion about Ron Jeremy
"The alcohol in my blood stream is dangerously low." - Bunny, after ordering a margarita at the Mexican restaurant in Murfreesboro right after leaving Bonnaroo
Australian guy I met during Eminem: Christ, you're Baltimore too? Me: Yep, and my partner.
I actually met a pretty drunk Australian guy before the Strokes. He was apparently doing a road trip through the U.S. but the only planned stop was Bonnaroo. I asked where he was headed next and he said "Probably Philadelphia. I hear that's the place to be." I suggested he check out D.C., New York, and of course Baltimore as well. I wonder if it was the same guy...
I also found it hilarious that they were planning to go to Philly after Roo. It seemed so random (and there's a ton of great cities closer/even along the way).
From Gogol Bordello: "I want to see a real quacking mosh pit. None of this dancing Leno."
The pit at NOFX was absolutely INSANE. It had to have been 110 degrees in there, so stifling you couldn't breathe, and absolutely reeked of BO. It was great, and it brings me to another quote.
(Said by the lead singer and bassist of NOFX) Fat Mike - Hey Hefe, what do you get when you cross a Mexican with an octopus? Hefe - What's that? Fat Mike - I dunno, but you should see that fucker pick lettuce!

Holy shit you met the same guy. No wonder he was so fucking confused LMAO
"I wouldn't know his shlong, but I would recognize his face anywhere." - Bunny, during a discussion about Ron Jeremy

My fiance and I had the pleasure of talking with Bunny for a few hours after the brunch, and it was definitely one of the highlights of our Roo!

To add a few more:
At Lookout Mountain Waffle House post-Roo: A regular coming in sees every table is dirty. Regular: "What the hell happened in here?" Waitress: "Bonnaroo let out tonight. This place has been crazy ever since."
Justin Townes Earle comes out for sound check and the crowd goes nuts. JTE: "Settle down folks. It's just a line check. I must piss before I perform."
Justin Townes Earle: "As most of you know, I really like doing druqs. I try not to do them, but I still really like doing them."
Neighbor: "Have I ever told you about the time where we thought we killed our little sister?"
Rev. Peyton: "And certainly don't be one of those people who act like you're yelling but aren't. We know who you are and you look like a dip sh*t."
Les Claypool: "What's up with Tracy Morgan? I wonder if you are born an ignorant a**hole or if you have to grow into it."
Neighbor: "We went to Shpongle last night. We got into the crowd and realized every single one of his fans was on a hallucinogen."

lordhavemercy y'all, we could start an ENTIRE THREAD of Bunny-isms from this weekend! my favorite was, "I've missed all the shows this weekend. But I've seen a lot of people."
