Walk up, pay $35 walk in gate.

Took me longer to write this than it took to get a wristband.

Reload at one of about 5 spots inside. Everyone is stopping at the first place inside the gate.

We got there early (11am) and left at 3:50. when we got there it was great, plenty of room to walk around and walk right up to a BBQ vendor.

I had like $35 left on my card so I went to a place where I knew the ribs were good and bought $30 worth of ribs and brought them home.

Lester, same for me. Got here at noon. Lady in line behind me kept calling the volunteer a “fricking idiot” for taking too long. Sigh. It’s like 15 minutes in line is akin to waterboarding.

Turned around and told her it’s a charity for pediatric brain cancer. She said she “doesn’t care and it’s bullshite”. Gotta love the general population.

Didn’t get to try the Barbosas egg rolls but still out here munching on things.

Got there a little before noon and walked right up and swapped wristbands. Had my wife and I loaded with $100 on both of our bracelets before arriving. I held the spot down while she went searching for food, she came back and said her bracelet had $0 and she couldn’t buy food

she went to a loading station and asked them what was up, they told her she had $90 or whatever it was. She went back and got food and it worked

The bracelets were good but there needs to be a better plan in place in the future

This was the most crowded Hogs that I’ve been to by far and I’ve done 9/10

Maybe you found a way to over complicate it.

I really can't believe people are bitching about a minor inconvenience at a brain cancer charity on a perfect day offering great beer, great music and incredible food in a safe, friendly atmosphere

today was a perfect day and hogs is the best festival of the year

?? Not sure what you are asking. I think this is the only one other than one or two that they tried somewhere else.

Coincidentally, the people that were complaining in my line had cash to load their wristband with. Whereas we pre-loaded our tickets and contributed to making the line go much faster.

She bitched that we handed our tickets to the volunteer separately instead of handing them both..

What was the item Swine Krewe won Porkpourri with?

My favorite item of the day was the pimento cheese and pulled pork grilled cheese from RugarouxQ.



Begged Merchant to run those Thai egg rolls as a special soon since we missed them.
