So Patti and I survived Summerfest, but the day/night was not without some raised eyebrows and a healthy dose of laughter. The raised eyebrows were the direct result of having to pay $4.50 for a single beer, a fact meant Patti and I spent close to 40 dollars on beer alone. Thankfully we ate before we left for Summerfest, so we didn’t blow too much money on food. Other than the exorbitant prices for food and drink, Summerfest itself was a blast. We listened to a lot of great music, met up with some of Patti’s friends, and in general just had a good time. At the end of the night, we headed over to the Marcus Amphitheater for the Daughtry concert, which was as good as I expected, so all in all it was a good night.

Perhaps one of my favorite things about Summerfest is the opportunity it affords for people watching, which has always been a hobby of mine. Yesterday was like an all you can eat buffet for people watching, because the hot weather + no shortage of alcohol will always lead to hilarity. Patti and I saw plenty of folk who had no business wearing the outfits they were wearing, and we saw no shortage of drunk folks acting like complete and total fools. All in all we had a great time, and Summerfest definitely lived up to its billing as The World’s Largest Music Festival.
