I don't remember there being a visual check at all. I hid my beer where we had to cross the road about halfway to the venue, but other than that it was smooth sailing right up until I was 2 people from the front of the line.

Porta potties and a store on the way. Not sure if that store sells alcohol.

The store sells beer but it gets cleaned out pretty fast. And there is definitely a visual checkpoint, at which the Yellowshirts famously yell "Drink or toss! Drink or toss!"

One year we thought they were yelling 'Dorito toss', which became something silly to yell until suddenly there was some kid using tortillas as frisbees. Then it was all too real.

Those tortilla frisbees had me in fucking stitches. I might have to bring some this year to compliment the dozens of beach balls I plan on throwing.

They have a checkpoint but lots of people just hide it and make sure they are done drinking by the time they get to the entrance gate. Last year when we were babysitting that kid some amazing angel of a girl asked if I would like her PBR tallboy and it was like mana from heaven.

Tortilla frisbees were amazing. Who would have thought.

I remember walking towards the show last year, and I to chug a 4-loko because they wouldn't allow me to carry it past the "no more alcohol beyond this point" sign. I'm surprised I even remember miike snow.

The walk back later that night after deadmau5 was all time. Brings a smile to my face just thinking about it. I'm so pumped for sasquatch now!


You started the day with a 4 Loko? You and I must party together.

Is this a joke at my expense, or do you seriously not remember my rant about this? Pea I love you but if I see you throwing tortillas all bets are off.

Two years ago I walked past this "visual" checkpoint with a pint in my cargo shorts. I walked past the Yellowshirts and soon heard a crazy woman yelling, "Hey white shirt, white shirt, white shirt!" Her voice kept getting louder until I was tapped on the shoulder. The crazy Yellowshirt had actually been chasing me while yelling at me. There were also about 7 people around me wearing white shirts. I might have responded to, “Hey asshole with the stupid face!”

I turned around and she looked down at my cargo pocket and asked, "Wat ya got in der?" I reached in and pulled out the water bottle that was sitting on top of the pint. I was lucky she didn't pursue any further.

That is usually a visual checkpoint, but you must remember that the power-thirsty Yellowshirts can venture outside of their job description if they care to.

unexpected beer is always good. I was standing in line, probably about 10 people back from the pat-down and someone started handing beers back from the front of the line. Apparently they had been caught with 2 or 3 of some type of import in bottles, and decided to pass them backwards and share the love. The problem was that NOBODY had a bottle opener, so the beer made its way back to me. To the amazement of about 4 people around me, I happened to be rockin' a bottle opener belt buckle. The day was saved, and the import was chugged.

There were some 15yr old kids chugging PBR and trying to pocket the rest when they got to the front of the line. I warned them that they would get caught, and even offered up some advice on sneaking it through. They were dumb though, and didn't take my advice. So many wasted cans of beer... :(

The best bottle opener I've ever seen is basically a metal card about the size of any other card you'd keep in your wallet with a cutout for popping bottle caps. Genius.

Everyone should know how to open a bottle with a BIC lighter. It's not hard.

I have a moment of silence every time I walk by that muddy alcohol puddle by the entrance. It hurts--wasted beer = no-no.

On our last day we had a surpluss of Rogue Dead Guys (we bought a case from Costco) and ended up sharing it with our obnoxious who teeny bopper neighbors who may or may not have been underage. We were their heroes for that.

At least it went to good use...
