driving drunk is far more entertaining than trolling
I hope this isn't a serious comment. And even if it isn't, it really isn't funny. That is like somebody saying OD'ing is funny.
But if you know somebody who has died due to it, or killed someone because they were being completely irresponsible... well, then you would have the common sense to steer clear of those comments.

youre right it isnt funny, and remember buzzed driving is drunk driving
And I'm not knocking you ydnac (<----ha!).
You know what I hate though. It seems like all the bastards that do drink and drive with someone in the car are always fine when they crash, but they either kill or injure the passenger.
A couple weeks ago a family friend was a passenger in this drunk guys car. She broke her spine, he got a couple bruises.

This thread reeks of immaturity, though I know people are joking around and stuff, Drunk driving is not funny and when we are young we all think we are invincible, but when you lose someone due to others irresponsibility, you grow up real quick.
Here's to everyone having a SAFE Bonnaroo, something I know the 'Roo Gods would look kindly upon!

Cmon guys this thread was supposed to be fun and just to tell litttle stories that obviously were a coincidence but it had something to do with Bonnaroo and jokingly you look to your friends and say wow it does seem like there is a Bonnaroo god. I am in no way saying that it was ok for my friend to be drunk driving. Yea he made a stupid decision and you would have to be a rare person if you didnt find yourself in a similar situation at some point. But due to the situation taking place so close to Bonnaroo and my friend would have certainly gone to jail and missed Bonnaroo, thats all i am saying. Im not saying "Awesome bro we didn't get caught! Now we can get back to endangering lives!" *high fives*. Dude you have to admit that the typical person who actually cares enough about Bonnaroo to come on the boards and start a thread is going to be one of those Bonnaroo people that is good hearted. You totally just looked past everything and made me out to be a bad guy without you knowing me. So here I am first time logging in after a hard week of school and I see my massive amount of negative karma and read all the posts on here. So excuse if I am upset that people are saying that I think its cool to drink and drive and endanger other peoples lives and also say this thread is immature. This thread is immature but its supposed to be fun and get some interesting stories out of people. Ive been to all the Bonnaroos and most of the people I have met would have gotten a kick out of this thread and sat down and told a story. But instead I get flamed to high hell for trying to fit in on the Inforoo forums. MY BAD. Smite me if you want but I love Bonnaroo; alot of my fondest memories have come from there and met alot of awesome people there. I would do anything for Bonnaroo and the people who enjoy it as I do. One time a couple's car broke down and they needed to get all of their stuff to their friends campsite. So me and a few friends walked clear cross Bonnaroo, arms full and all just because I wanted to make sure that couple had a good time. And maybe JUST maybe after we left they jokingly they said to each other wow there might actually be a Bonnaroo god.
Watchin' a stretch of road, miles of light explode. Driftin' off a thing I'd never done before. Watchin' a crowd roll in. Out go the lights it begins. A feelin' in my bones I've never felt before...

I'm not flaming you for your story, or giving you negative karma. I just had a problem with what was intended to be a joke from candyflippedaround... from what I've seen on the forums, he is a very informative, helpful, and funny fellow. I just wasn't fond of that particular joke. Even though I don't agree with drunk driving, I liked your stories, and the idea of this thread.
I only went to the last roo, so my faith isn't completely full in the roo gods, but I have a feeling they exist.

I know he's not advocating it, I just hate when people talk about it without any sense of remorse, that's all.
Sure he's not saying "hey guyz you should totaly drink and drive it's awesom", but he also isn't saying he regrets doing it. He just says he's happy he didn't get caught. Drunk drivers should be locked up for attempted homicide, plain and simple. I wish more of you got caught.

I believe in the Festival gods. Part of our schtick every year is to have a camp theme and flag that corresponds to it. In 07 it was a big Pink inflatable dinosaur, Langerado it was a handpainted Gonzo flag... the point is at the end of the festival every year we have found someone who was admiring the site marker and given it to them as a token of the trip. In 07 a little girl wanted the inflatable and the Gonzo flag is hanging in some dudes garage ( he sent me pics) and every year ...knock wood... we have gotten home safely post offering, knowing there are foolish people on the roads.
The gods are real, make your offerings, everything evens out in the end.
for the record i had just got home after a night of drinking when i posted that
haha, no worries. i'm not going to hold anything against you for what you said. you are one of the people on this forum whose posts i always enjoy reading... well, except for that one ;D

Viva Camp Antelope! in '09
If a guy walks up to you and is admiring the hell out of your flag... It's me and I want it!
But seriously that's cool of you. I think having a souvenir like that would be way better than anything I could buy at the Roo.
coming back from that bitch's show at 7 am. pissed. thinking that everyone would be asleep and unable to chill only to find everyone wide awake. Handing out beers and starting the party all over again.

I found a clean portopotty once during a moment of desperation and need and let me tell you it was sparkly clean. It had toilet paper and such someone had even strung up glowstiks in it. I never thought I would find something like that during a Pearl Jam show. I will always remeber "LOVE REIGN O'ER ME" from inside a clean portopotty. And I will never eat those giant smoked sausages with peppers and onions again.

This a true testament to the proof that there is a Bonnaroo God.
I grew up worshipping Rock and Roll like a religion. I know its shortcomings and strengths but have loved it unconditionally all the same since I was eight-years old. I ran away and joined the circus and honestly, I'm still as obsessed as I was as a boy. I'm not a kid anymore but I still remember how it felt and it doesn't really feel all that different to me now.
Blasphemy, ye fools. The God of Bonnaroo is Corncat. Corncat is God. Though one night I swear the eyes of the bobbleheads were following me.
The bobbleheads are Corncats disciples just like I have my groupies Corncat is entitled to his personally I would watch out for the mullet one a.k.a "JUDAS BOBBLEHEAD" he is the junior GMAN of the group him an J. Edgar well i will not get into that after the RFID thread got everyoen so worked up he has a third eye and it is a camera lens!!!
