Has to be 2 or 3 day total.

With or without the kids,
It's a damned good time when weather is good.

It's not debatable you frickin frick. It's a matter of perspective. You either like it or you don't. There is no debate.

You lost your mind? There's 3000 people in just
rides area any given time.

I'd say there's at least 30k out there when I've been.

Not sure if 300K is accurate, but there are lot of people...If you go, get there early or plan to walk far from where you park.

The Strawberry Festival is in Ponchatoula. Not Hammond. Get your facts and title straight.

Been years. I went with Zeb and Furry a bunch.

It was the one thing we all went to where we didn't stick out like soar thumbs.

That's accurate for 3 days. It's a huge festival. It closes down both sides of the tracks for blocks.
