    DLD Newb question:

    So how much tailgating goes on? Is it like an NFL game where everyone has a BBQ going? Also, more importantly, where does this tailgating happen? I've been to Three Floyds before and there won't be much room I'd imagine with everyone crammed in, plus food tents, stages, etc.

    Also, would bringing a folding camping chair be a good idea?

    How don't I know of you and why don't you come to our big bad bottle shares?

    Tailgating happens outside the grounds in local business parking lots and whatnot. It is prevalent, but not pervasive. Not EVERYONE does it, most do not. Folding chair is a bad idea as they will not let you into the grounds with it. If you plan to stay outside the grounds most of the time, it's likely not a problem. If you plan to park your car near the line, you could use it in the morning, take it back to your car before going in, etc.

    I've just recently jumped back in the fray. I saw your bottle share thread and will most definitely need to participate one of these days.

    By the way, we are bringing up a bottle of the infamous Jackie O's Bourbon Barrel Black Maple. Delicious brew!

    You missed out on some insanity. Someone brought an Assassin. So good.

    Are you going to post here when you find a location to set up? I'd love to meet some fellow RB folks and we plan on bringing some awesome stuff to share.

    Yep! There are 2 entrances, north and south side. We'll be set up on the side that's basically a super long road with a curb and grassfronts of businesses. I am not sure whether it is north or south. Hopefully someone here can help me out with that. I'll post more info after I get together with my buddies and we finalize everything. Definitely look forward to meeting ya!

    Dear beer nerd cry baby. Please stay far away from dark lord day so the adults can have fun without hearing you cry about how you are entitled to this and that. Just because your mommy and daddy spoon fed you all your needs and wants your entire life does not mean that is how the world does or should work. Sucks to be unprepared for the real world. Enjoy your parents basement and cell phone plan and do not come to darklord day!

    The older the better. I brought a bottle from early 2012 with me last year and it was fucking perfect. Bring some local stuff, too, people love that shit.
