I was wondering what everyone's Roo hacks were that they learned by going multiple years.
A couple I've learned over the years:
*Hit up the Clean Vibes tent and clean up a bag of trash for free food vouchers
*The bathrooms by the Comedy Tent have always had the shortest wait
*Tape a lighter to a string and hang it from the top of a gazebo, so you never need to look for a lost lighters
*Tapestries were made for Roo
*If you're gonna ride the water slide, get the weekend pass.
*It's always worked for me with a big group to meet near the water fill up station in the What stage field for headlining shows and move up together. Come join if you like to dance.
Add your tricks to help make everyone's Roo as stress freeee!

Not all the portapotties that show red are actually closed, a bunch just have a broken placement knob so it'll show closed but actually be the cleanest most beautiful portapotty you'll ever see at Roo (with toilet paper too!!)
Planet Roo is a great place to nap, that and the tree by Which
The giant Planet Roo hand is also a great pre-headliner meet up point
and now this last one I haven't tested, but I'm pretty sure if you only eat spicy pie, amish donuts, and lemonade (extra points for black lemonade) for the whole fest you get a colorful pet unicorn like on the new logo. or you turn into a unicorn. still unclear. unicorns are definitely involved though.

May I ask what black lemonade is?
Lemonade with a compote of strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and I think watermelon. Excellent stuff. Good for hangovers, too.
Edit: I think you get them at the Outback Kate locations.

It's the really yummy smushed berry lemonade the New Orleans vendors (the ones who sell gator bites and jambalaya and all that to the left of Which (if you're looking at Which)) sell! It's both lovely and looks silly, which is always a plus.

Oh my god that black lemonade. I have a lemonade budget. And as much of that as possible is black lemonade because it is best lemonade.
That black lemonade is good for mixing with vodka too. So I've heard...
What I want to know is how the hell do you get a hammock spot in shade? How early do you have to arrive? How does this happen? We brought in our ENO every day and all the good spots were claimed.

Phat Daddy's Cajun is NOT a New Orleans vendor they are from Texas. Being from Texas doesn't not make your food authentic New Orleans cuisine or Cajun.
cdevaney said it was Outback Kate's, was that near the New Orleans' poser booth? I want to find this black lemonade you speak of this year.

New Orleans is in Louisiana not Texas, silly. You can't have "authentic" New Orleans' food when you aren't even in that state or city. Stop the madness.

I don't know, I bet some Texans will try and lay claim to NOLA!

I found it at the vendors on the far side of the What stage, near VIP hill. It was on the end closer to the stage, and I believe they were selling mediocre burritos that were about the size of small babies and those alligator nugget things. I'm pretty sure it was Outback Kate's.

I am sure they do but, too bad, y'all have Tex-Mex (and BBQ and authentic Mexican). We have Cajun, Creole and French Creole. Stop the madness.

Yeah, they have a few locations. There's one in the bank of vendors between That and the Ferris Wheel, one on the left of Which and the one that cowgal described.

Just checked the app. They don't list a Which location for Outback Kate's.

I pulled up the vendor pdf thingy on bonnaroo, that fake-ass, New Orleans wannabe, Phat Daddy's Cajun is by the which though.
I hope there are more locations, because I refuse to buy anything from those posers.

you can be authentic cajun without being from new orleans. there are a shit ton of cajuns living in southeast texas along the gulf near Houston and beaumont.

No. I am sure that there are cajuns that have moved out of New Orleans (and the metro surround area) to the southeast Texas border area, but if it isn't in New Orleans (and the surrounding metro areas) it isn't authentic. There are a bunch of ingredients for cajun food that you can only get here. My sister who is one of those transplants and she has me bring seasonings and food to her all the time, because you can't get it in Texas, which is why it is not authentic.
Another thing, I have been to lots of places and I have lots of people take me to authentic New Orleans restaurants in those other places, and it is far from authentic. I like the ones that are originally from New Orleans that missed home so they opened their little authentic Cajun restaurant. Still nothing like when you go to a restaurant here in NOLA. I promise.
But I am not going to argue this point anymore without saying one thing. You can get Mexican food almost anywhere in the US, but just because you can, that doesn't make it authentic.
I have a mental block against actually doing this, but I do admit that it would be so fucking helpful, especially since I have an obnoxiously small bladder.
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
i hope the non-authentic poutine is back this year.
Boner put his seal of approval on the poutine truck. His word counts for Canada as a whole as is tradition.
The gravey was way too runny, but the flavours were enough, especially considering it was a vegan gravey. Not a true representation of a Canadian poutine, but far better than expected.
