I hate to see people drop money on concert or sports tickets and then not get to use them. There was enough of that during 2020.

don't use the bathroom if all possible.

other than that, no. There is so much BBQ you won't go to the spot twice.

I haven't had an issue with the bathrooms themselves, but one thing I will say as advice is if you are bringing any women/female children with you, pack lots of napkins in their bag for bathroom trips. Port-O-Potties run out of TP quickly (and the booths run out of napkins) and no woman wants to be without that. I bring an entire roll of TP with me in my backpack, plus a bottle of sanitizer, when I go to music festivals. I'm always the popular person in line at the bathroom for this.

In the same realm, I always save my first couple of forks I'm given for the same reason. By the end of the day, a lot of booths run out of forks.

What’s the consensus on bringing some foldable chairs?

plenty of people do it, especially camped in front of the stage.

I suspect that you won't be using them tho.

weather coming in reminds me of times at City Park.

We always bring 2. They have the strap to go over the shoulder, so it isn't much more annoying than carrying my purse.

Also, you can set them up in front of a stage of your choice and nobody will mess with them. I've left mine for over an hour with zero issues.

Speaking on the mud, I usually bring a few plastic grocery bags to put our shoes into if we will be getting into an Uber. Or even just to put them into before you get into your own car.

Do you order specific things or just get samples or what?

Menus

See link above for some menus. You order at each booth, usually the serving sizes aren't huge so you can get a bunch of different things throughout the day.

You can follow them on Instagram and find the popular dishes / menu prices. I usually pick 10 or so things I think I'd like and work my way through them.

ETA:. Friday night is bacon night and Saturday is considered the main event. So most booths usually have a different menu for each day. Friday you'll usually see bacon inspired dishes or chicken wings. Saturday will be the main pork dishes.

each booth will have their own menu with sometimes unique items. Everything is a la carte. Some things are small items for $2/3 and others are $7-10 for larger items.
