    Final background image all the way at the bottom -> ***** Riot headlining act confirmed?

    (EDIT: I thought this was actually a cool idea, but they're playing the Hangout Festival in Alabama over DLD weekend. Sad!)

    Efforts were definitely made to force us to spend more inside the festival; no outside food, beer ounce carry-in limit lowered, cashless. I'll be impressed if they can enforce this. Outside food saved my ass, im in trouble lol.

    Im a bit underwhelmed by the guest brewery list, the tap times is a good addition but will also cause likely mad rushes and long lines to try rarer stuff.

    Hopefully finally the year i get a variant, 3 years of bad luck, hopefully no late surprises this year announcing vintages.

    I've not read on various forums and heard from many people that "outside food saved their asses last year". I really hope they change this. I really was looking forward to packing a lunch in my bookbag and being fancy with my meats, cheeses, and crackers. -_-

    I think the only practical possibility left, to get around the beer limit and outside food ban, is to construct and place a perfectly calibrated trebuchet in the hospital parking lot.

    72oz! Weak! That's probably less than what I give out in pours. This will either take away from the bottle share experience it once was or possibly make it an all whale fest!
    Not crazy about the guest taps either. Surprised Mikerphone is not on there.

    Outside food banned? How will Attendees be able to smuggle pretzel necklaces in a bag in their ass without breaking all the pretzels? Asking for a friend...

    I did like 70% of my bottlesharing outside the festival while waiting to get in. To be honest I don't think the 72oz is going to kill sharing like some of you guys are thinking.

    No outside food is a bitch though. The beer limit just means you have to plan out what you bring a little more. I definitely brought in more than the limit in 2016 and nothing was said by the way.

    The other option is to vote on the new arrangements if your wallet. Share your bottles, get your dark lord, go home/back to your hotel. If taps suck as much as they did last year, you probably won’t regret it.

    72oz is what I always tell myself is the right amount to bring, then I bring way more than that and by the end of the day I am just popping bottles and taking 2oz pours and then leaving full bottles to get warm on a table somewhere.

    Then a few days later I sort of regret doing that instead of just hitting up more of the taps.

    no

    I'm not at all. Mike's been pretty anti-DLD

    This isn't true. In fact, when talking about Pale Pauper Day in the past, he commented that he was wearing a 3 Floyds shirt as he posted.

    Much ado about nothing.

    I thought they weren't doing pale pauper day due to being a guest at DLD.
