We all pack a multitude of gear in every year and even more dear to us is the stuff we "sherpa" around in. What is it that is odd that you pack in and on you? Usually I pack a lot of small inconsequential things in my pack this increases the probability that when I do indeed loose something(I always do) that I will not loose something important. A lighter is better then a misty mate personal mister correct? (mad thanks to the dude from Colorado who one year gave it to me when I was balling it in RV I cannot remember your name but I have packed it around since 07' Dustaroo) now onto this year I saw some Corncob Pipes at the Walgreens for $5 I am going to buy one and rubberband a lighter to it that ways if it is lost it is appreciated and by the way I have seen Centeroo Security straight up let people with wooden pipes in. I just feel a Corncob is more appropriate or as they are known amongst afficiandos the "Missisippi Meerschaum" due to its propensity to mimic the fabled Meerschaum Pipe of the 1%er's fuck that I am going Huck Finn Indeed I might just get me a straw hat and walk around with it in my mouth shoeless!

Washington, Missouri has long been known as the “Corn Cob Pipe Capital of the World.” And, in fact, The Missouri Meerschaum Company – the world's oldest and largest manufacturer of cool, sweet-smelling corn cob pipes – began the tradition for which Washington became famous.
In 1869, a Dutch immigrant woodworker named Henry Tibbe first began production of the corn cob pipe. Legend has it that a local farmer whittled a pipe out of corn cob and liked it so much he asked Henry Tibbe to try turning some on his lathe. Because the farmer was well-pleased with the results, Henry made and sold a few more in his woodworking shop. Tibbe’s pipes proved to be such a fast selling item, he soon spent more time making pipes for customers than working with wood, and began full time production of corn cob pipes.
In 1907 the H. Tibbe & Son Co. became the Missouri Meerschaum Company. The word “meerschaum” is derived from a German word meaning “sea foam.” Meerschaum is a Turkish clay used in high grade pipes. Tibbe likened his light, porous pipes and their cool smoke to that of the more expensive meerschaum pipes and coined the name “Missouri Meerschaum” for his pipes. Tibbe and a chemist friend devised an innovative system of applying a plaster-based substance to the outside of the corn cob bowls. In 1878, Tibbe patented this process.
A nationwide distribution system was eventually established for the sale of Tibbe’s pipes. Other pipe firms also developed, so by 1925 there were as many as a dozen corn cob pipe companies in Franklin County, Missouri – most of them in Washington. Today, Missouri Meerschaum stands alone as the first and only surviving piece of this living history. These gentle pipes are smoked and loved all over the world as well as being used as souvenirs, often imprinted with the name of a city, business, or event.

So what is the oddest thing in your pack and how much thought did you put into your version of "odd" doe is have history sentimental value or is it Mardi Gras fodder/SWAG? silly sting? glow in the dark fishnets? beads? baghivad gida you scooped from that dude that always chases me down in the straw hat every year (it is the same damn dude I swear he has a little cart he hauls them around in and is older out looking for lost souls to convert to Krishna and he alway sees me with an Alex Grey shirt on and asks if I am wearing a shirt with Chakras why I won't listen to him)

Yeah if it is wet or if it gets cold at night they are excellent for thermal insulation. One year I believe it was 08 the ground was wet and I tried laying out on one during Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings I got off that thing in 5 seconds because the full on sun was out. They are cheap and serve a myriad of uses. Nobody like sitting on wet ground for sure it helps promote swamp butt when you get up.

Had a dream about Roo two days ago and in it, someone was asking me for spare shoe inserts.. fortunately in my dream I did have a spare pair of orthodic shoes inserts in my Roo bag.... Normally the strangest think you will find in my Roo bag is chapstick from Woodchuck Brewery that I got in 2009.. and it is still in my Roo bag ready for Roo 2013!
Can't head to centeroo without my pocket kite. It's a huge pain to get it in the air but there's something to be said for flying a kite during a great show. L I V I N

Pondo Army membership cards. The dang security people tried to take them. It did NOT go over well. I went off on one of them and they backed off.
I don't believe for a second that security tried to confiscate little paper/laminate cards that were in your bag. Not in the least.
This travesty will not stand! I now have some power that i have taken to Twittering AC Retweeted me yesterday I must think of a constructive way for this not to happen ever again!

When I went thru the second time, they pulled the box out of my bag and asked what they were. I told them Pondo Army Membership Cards. Guy said "you cannot bring merchandise in here to sell." I did not ask why he thought they were for sell Juggo. Maybe he was upset because he was not a member.

At last years Forecastle I was carrying around a heavy, rusty water spigot I took from an old clawfoot tub I had been napping in after sneaking into VIP. Not sure why I carted the thing around all day like some souvenier merch, but anytime anyone would ask me for a lighter or a smoke, I would hand them an old faucet and fall over laughing.

I would have hooked it to my Camelbak and said "I am Aquaman now fuck off and go find Johnny Blaze" and point to helpless receipient of my humour to go towards the Wu-Tang Clan Show direction!
