Oktoberfest Gets Crazier This Year
By Wyatt Earp | October 5, 2010
Oktoberfest was busier than a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest. With babes like these, it’s no wonder!
Police in the Bavarian capital told daily Süddeutsche Zeitung that during the annual autumn festival’s final weekend they observed an “unprecedented flow of visitors” not only on the Wiesn, but also in the city’s streets.
On Sunday, beer tents, beer gardens in the area, and the special historical area set up in honour of the anniversary had to be closed for several hours due to overcrowding. Oktoberfest organiser Gabriele Weishäupl told the paper the festival visitors, which police estimated to be as many as 800,000 on Saturday, had “spilled over.”
“There’s no longer a folksy mood,” she said.
Apparently, some revelers wanted to get drunk and invade Poland. Heh. But seriously, a German beer fest was overcrowded? How is this news? The next thing you know, there will be a news story about the popularity of candy among children.

News story about the popularity of candy among children…. There is. It came out just a few days ago.
Grown-ups like beer. Kids like soda. It’s breaking news!

Kim – It’s astounding! And you know full well what happens when someone gives out apples on Halloween. The kids frown and plan to egg the house.

Oktoberfest is full of beer and busty barmaids; why wouldn’t it be popular?

800,000 people at one party. Holy Cow that is a rager. Here in my town if 200 college kids spill into the street the police bring out the 4 foot night sticks and the tear gas.

Ingineer66 – As well they should. Lousy hippie college kids!

Really? Five comments in and not a single comment about jugs? All of you are slipping in your old age.

Dr. Evil – Hockey game last night. Going on 5 hours sleep. At least that’s my excuse.
