Funny festival stories

[Zammo]

I am so excited about T in the Park this weekend but i remember going one year and actually losing my tickets for the following day. I was, as you can imagine, beside myself....gutted!!! Anyway security said they could do nothing but search the ground once everyone had gone back to the campsite at the end of the night. I did, it was a sea of mud and white paper cups but i actually found them,...couldn't believe my luck. Found a tenner too...woop. What festival stories can you share to really get me in the mood for the festival season??/ xx

[ummmm]

Not much really but take the sunblock....Stuck outside in the sun from sunrise to sunset takes it out of you...

Found a few mobiles when at glasto. One had some rather rude pics on. And I assume one was of the owner himself and his parts. So looked up his mums number on mob and sent it :-)

This is no way funny - but it is a festival story -

went to Glastonbury last year for the first time - camping off site ( am press, so get a hotel paid). Was directed to wrong car park at the end of Friday night - spent two hours looking for car - £60 taxi back to hotel, £40 taxi back to the festival on Saturday morning.

Found car - asked if i could park at the Yellow gate, as had to leave late Saturday night to drive home, to drive to london and fly to Canada for another festival on Sunday.

Six (count them - six!) people denied there was a Yellow Gate - must have been 'Orange' gate. Went there - no car. Check with security - phone call to Head office - car was left in 'bus lane' nad has been towed by RAC and impounded - they have left site, not returning until 10:00 a.m. Sunday morning.

No hotel - no camping gear, so a night in the Welfare Tent - freezing, on ground with two blankets and lots of 'lost souls'.

Sunday a.m. - RAC deny impounding any cars.

Enquire again about Chief Security Steward who authorised parking - blonde lady? - check, about twenty? - check.

Ask about Yellow Gate - advised it is a 'farm track' nothing like Orange Gate.

Decide to walk along to see it - find Yellow Gate.

It is an exact replica of Orange Gate in every way - except that my car is in the 'bus lane' where i left it.

Drive 190 miles home, arrive at 3:00 p.m. 3:45 p.m., drive 160 miles to London for overnight stay before flight to Canada.

Sleep like a dead person. Blisters on feet last three weeks.

Magic curses and plagues called down on RAC / festival security - ongoing.

Went to the Donington Rock festival. At the end, tired and thirsty, we had to find our coach home in the dark and with 80,000 people milling around. We looked at the coach park and there were coaches as far as the eye could see. We just walked at random in amongst them, down a couple of rows and found it in 5 minutes. Well we thought it was funny at the time!
