Did anybody get the "Christian apologist" bottled water while they were in line?
Yes. I still have it.
Here what it said if anyone is wondering.
^Hey that's kind of good idea. Good message. And a good/helpful way to get out. Definately does a better job than the guys on the side of the road with signs telling you you are going to hell
I saw them coming and thought they were selling it. I was willing to buy anyway, so I rolled the window down. They said they were giving it away and all but one of us in the van took one. We collectively groaned when we thought we had a proselytizing evangelical bottle of water. The guy in the back seat, the one who didn't take a bottle, joked "I hope it says 'Sorry for raping all those Indians!'" And then the bottle actually did, and we all had a good laugh.

I love the message on the Christian water! As a Pagan who deals with basically non-spiritual people telling me, quite the spiritual person, that I am going to hell ALL THE TIME, it is extra nice to see some Christians with an attitude like this. You go Christians! On another note: heard from the backseat on the way home from Roo, my friend says : "Damn, Christmas is just going to suck now"
I'm sure Bonnaroo already makes Father's Day suck.
I haven't seen Dad on Father's Day since 2002 and I've been at Bonnaroo every year since. This year, my brother went for his first time, leaving only our sister behind to mark the occasion.
This may not be as funny now as it was then, but here it goes anyway...
I was outside a port-a-potty in Centeroo one night, holding my friends bag while she used the facilities. The door of the port-a-potty next to her opens up and this guy stumbles out wearing the headphones from the Silent Disco. he walks away dancing.
When my friend comes out, she said" The guy next to me must have been taking the biggest dump of his life cause he was making all sorts of noises and rattling the port-a-potty around." When I told her about the headphones, we realized he had just continued the silent dance party in the portos.

No, no, thats still funny!! Wish i'd seen some of the stuff you guys had!! Mind you, i did witness some very random acts over the weekend!!x
During Metallica this girl on some substance in front of me is handed Barnoculars, they look like binaculars but they hold alcohol. The lid was off and she proceeded to pour liquor into her eye. It was hilarious.

This is more like misheard at Bonnaroo... at the Inforoo brunch, beltwalla said to CarpeDM, "So you're the Sanuks guy!" but I thought she said, "So you're the Xanax guy!" ;D
Me and my buddy were walking by the dollar grilled cheese stand friday night while it was pouring. This man (about 25ish) comes running over and says to me, "DUDE I WAS JUST IN A TENT WITH THESE 2 NAKED GIRLS AND THEY WANTED TO quack BUT I DIDN'T HAVE A CONDOM! WHAT SHOULD I DO?!?! In my then current state of mind, I just responded, "GO BACK NOW!" and then he went running back.
Did anyone see the curly headed camera guy at the Wood Brothers try to sit in a chair while filming and the cord holder guy reached and "accidently" pulled the chair out from under him? He hit the floor on his butt, but didn't drop the camera. It was so funny.
Also, the two guy playing guitar while another guy that had just finished in the port-o-john sang a song about how good it felt to pee. This was close to the entrance off I-24. It was such a Bonnaroo moment.
The look on Willie's face when he spotted the lady with the painted boobs at his show. He got the biggest grin!!!!
There were some guys running the 3 card monty type game with the balls and cups. We were watching and being entertained. Another spectator said to me “I bet this is a scam” I concurred and said don’t waste your money. The guy then proceeded to bet and lost a few hundred…so sad…

the entire reason I came all the way from Florida to feed my obsession with Robert Plant, and the greatest thing in my whole life happened: I was standing alone in the front pit area, happily dancing-singing-groovin along, and in between songs I hollered out "I love you Bob"!! He then looked right at me, placed his finger to his lips and shusshed me! I cracked up and he smiled! I will forever live with the idea that I was told to shut up by the man of my dreams!!
anybody see Prince?! Dude was dressed in a tight crushed velvet purple suit and white blouse whilst quoting Chappelle's Show lines in people's faces. Classic.
"Shoot the J! Shoot it!" "Pancakes, blouses..." "You just met Prince at Bonnaroo. How's it feel?!"
I finally went through pics and found one of Prince. At this point, there were around 20 people taking pics/video. He was atop this truck singing "When Doves Cry" on repeat. It was the jam! So Julia got up and we took some cool pics.
"I have never seen a band control the weather before!" - during the My Morning Jacket show.
"The only thing that could top this is Eddie Vedder playing Jack Johnson's weiner!" - also during the My Morning Jacket show.
"I just puked... outta my weiner." - during the Pearl Jam show.
i'm not really sure, but i might of said the weather comment at MMJ. I remember talking about MMJ and how it always rains when they play at bonnaroo and the more intense they play the harder it rains. that might have been me.
did anyone see all the crazies running around yelling "Jeremy" after the Metallica show? That was my group and me. We never found him that night. Same thing happened to him in 2006.

i was sitting with my friends and remarked about how dirty my legs were.. something like, "I can't tell whats dirt, scars, or my skin." My friend who's out of his mind goes, "Dude... that's cause... everything has become nothing..."

1. My buddy preparing our entire campsite hamburgers, then, seeking a refreshing rinse, proceeds to pour vodka from our wodka bottle all over his face. Priceless.
2. Space Ghost.
3. Canadian Adam remarking about my sparkly gold shorts- "MITHRIL!!!!!! You Texans are so medieval."
4. The line of people(yes,girls included) waiting to pee in the corner between port a pots.
Thursday night in Centeroo, me and my bf were waiting for Vampire Weekend when this tripped out kid in fairy wings came up to us and said "I'm a fairy!" He then went on to explain how he just moved to NYC, then said "Yes, I was a catepillar in NYC, now I am a fairy!"
I was walking around after Dark Star Orchestra and I stopped to people watch at the silent disco and This taller very attractive blonde woman next to me began commenting on my height. After A conversation about how we should hook up and make a basketball team, she takes a few pictures with me and gives me a big hug. After the hug love ends she looks at me for a moment with bleary eyes and remarks "You smell like excellence" It was the creed for all things that smelled for the rest of the weekend

was anyone else there when the female mounted officer was trying to get the crowd waiting to get into Centeroo onto the grass? This was at the other entrance, without the Arch. Everyone was just waiting to get searched, and she starts screaming "GET ON THE GRASS, NOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!" She was so angry about it too. Someone yelled, "Calm down lady, this is Bonnaroo!"
My friends told me when they were leaving Chris Rock, the crowd was really thick. They heard this guy yelling "Umbrella lady, coming through! Make room for the Umbrella lady!" and the crowd was started to part for a random guy being followed by a lady holding an umbrella. My friends started tagging along behind the umbrella lady to take advantage or the escape route, and they talked to the umbrella lady.. "Why is this guy making the way for you?" ... "I don't know.. I gave him shelter from the rain for like, a second"
I'm really disappointed that no one has mentioned me and my friend Matt who were skipping around together holding hands pre-Kanye wearing a George W. Bush mask and a Saddam Hussein mask.
If anyone saw me, after Saddam went to bed, I was the guy in the George W. Bush mask who was dancing and high fiving everyone at Ghostland/Chahli 2na/Kanye West.
You are in a youtube video! It was during the Kanye show, I think.
Here is the link...I watched a lot of them today...but I'm pretty sure this is the one I saw the Bush mask in.
At Kanye right by the food vendor on the right side of the stage we saw two guys @#$@ their balls off...their eyes looked like slot machines. One was shouting, "where's the #%?". His friend was laying in the grass in front of him JACKING off. He had no idea where he was or that people were there. He was on an entirely different planet. It was weird b/c I saw the two dudes again the next day at Deathcab but they weren't as quacked up anymore.
The other thing that I thought was interesing was one of my neighbors was a self claimed eco girl vegetarian...who designs bombs for the government for a living. Very ironic.
I guess jacking off was a recurring theme for us though...the eco bomb maker girl told us that when she was at Drive by Truckers she met some teenage guys who were discussing the "circle jerk" they had in their tents the previous night and how only two of them didn't finish.
I also saw an older man get detained for fighting with a garbage can and saying it broke his leg.
