I was worried that my lame neighbors had decided they wanted a free pass from my mailbox and had helped themselves

Music festivals don't generally deliver wristbands until a month or so before the festival. They have to get the actual wristbands made, and if they send em out too early then there's longer for people to make fakes.

Plus there's always the jackass that puts his or hers on the day it arrives. Shipping them out sooner would mean a longer time that some idiot has to walk around wearing it before the festival.

Considering I still have my sasquatch 2012 wristband on, amoung others, ouch.

Choosing to keep your wristband on after the festival is one thing, wanting to "try it on" then realizing you can't take it off is something altogether different.

I'm just kidding I'm not sensitive about it all. I fully acknowledge keeping them on is pretty stupid. I did it for a bet and I actually won a couple months ago but now I feel like they are a part of me...

What's the oldest one? More than one festival or all Sasquatch? What did you win for the bet? Finally, what part of you are they?

Did you cut off parts so that you wouldn't be carrying around a lot of germs? Wiping your ass with one of those on for years builds up fecal matter and other nasty bacteria. Live long and prosper.

My camping ticket arrived in the mail today. Still no festival passes, but I imagine they'll be along shortly.

I've tried to keep one from most festivals that have wristbands.
I have a sasquatch, 2 coachellas, a squamish, a Tall Tree, a Pemberton, primavera Barcelona and primavera Porto. I think the total value of them would be something like $2000 or so.
As for keeping them clean I shampoo then when I shower and happen to wipe my butt with my left hand so no issues there.
That's something I never thought I would divulge on the Internet...

Are you left-handed? I don't think I've ever wiped with my left, and dipping the loose ends my wristband in Honey Bucket sludge is always a big fear.

I try to always put them on my left for this reason. I've been lucky in that security hasn't really ever had a problem with it. Also I don't know how Davers does it. I usually leave mine on for about a week afterwards because I'm not ready to let go yet and by the end of it I'm pretty annoyed at having them in real life. I can't really handle even having a bracelet on though so maybe I'm weird.

I also brush my teeth with my left hand though. I figure I wipe with my left because the toilet paper dispenser was on the left in my parents house. It's pretty much the only logical reason that I do that. Any more questions about my pooping habits guys? I'm an open book it would seem. I started taking probiotics and my poops have been better, would recommend.

And also why you use your left hand to wipe when it seems more logical to use your right. I visualize sitting on your parent's house stool, and if the dispenser is on my left, would it not be easier to reach across my body with my right hand to grab the paper, then come back to the right and wipe? Your left hand would be somewhat contorted reaching to the left for the paper and then down for the wipe, but maybe that's just me...

I won $100 and a case of beer. It was a very drunken bet a wee or so after Sasquatch 2012. We both still had ours on and my friend be me that he could keep his on longer. I didn't even expect him to remember but sure enough he did. Initially it was just a case of beer, then it went a year and we added $50 and then another $50 the next year. Eventually his fell off. Mine is hanging on by a few threads so it was pretty close.
I don't know about the butt wiping. It's just how I ended up doing it. The idea of using my right seems strange now.
