there's a post on BA right now where a guy admits to fishing his dark lord out of a porto and then got them stolen

Scanned up-thread, and holy ****, this guy takes beer way too seriously:

Regular BA seemed to be passed over, but it's a safe bet, low risk, low relative hype for the fest, but huge payoff.

But seriously man, what is your friend going to do with $150? Pay a cable or phone bill? Why get a variant at all? At the very least, trade it up, otherwise the suffering through that whole ordeal and all the insanity of the day isn't worth a soggy $150 in place of a guaranteed variant. He should have just not come and saved the potential ticket for someone who cares.

[MarcatGSB1]

was this the legendary party I heard about on BA five years ago that involved two BAs inviting the internet into their home and someone wiped their ass with the shower curtain?

At deer camp, you don't know where the bottom of the outhouse is so fishing for Ice House cans is a real trick.

OMG. This guy is my leading nominee for Golden Neckbeard for outstanding achievement in extreme loss of dignity in pursuit and ultimate loss of a beer everyone hates.

-Food options were solid if you were a carnivore, but I actually felt bad for the vegetarians there. mishuggah had the sorriest looking tacos I've ever seen in my life.

Vegetarianism obviously isn't metal.

Do not judge, good sir. I've been on that side of the wall. Its tough sleddin.

No judgment here at all, just pointing out the obvious.

I can't quite follow the story enough to determine. he was able to grab the cardboard tote with four beers without incident, but had to "fish the bottle out of the port o potty" for the fifth, but says his variant "didn't fall in."

if he srsly like was digging in the liquid/solid area of the porto for a regular DL I'm floored. I'm not saying I wouldn't do it for a BVDL I dropped in there, but the regular DL would be left there.

idea for 2k17: re-wax empty BVDL bottles, drop them in portos, watch to see if people come out with them.

Maybe too metal for metal?
You want to keep telling yourself you really like what you are hearing/eating but in the end its more a test of will and survival than enjoyment.

Executive summary of his post:

OMG. This guy is my leading nominee for Golden Neckbeard for outstanding achievement in extreme loss of dignity in pursuit and ultimate loss of a beer everyone hates.

I hope this honor is conferred with more regularity than the Mongo Awards.

with some of the stories about people being black out drunk, miscommunication between friends, forgetting where the tent they were drinking at was located.. how many of these "my beer got stolen" stories are actually "i was so ******* hammered and forgot we drank that/i dropped it/i gave it to some random"?

at least 25%, right?

My group was missing a Vanilla Militia and 4 regular DL when we got back to the hotel but I could definitely be at fault. Like you said, who knows if I dropped them, set them down, chugged them on the walk back to the car, etc. As I said to someone else, if you're gonna get blackout drunk then losing some bottles is just a cost of doing business. I had way too much awesome beer this weekend at the hotel, in the compound, and hanging out in line that being upset over 5 missing bottles of dark lord really wouldn't make a lot of sense.

I think he had the cardboard tote and variant in the cloth tote bag and when the bag fell over the cardboard + 4 bottles fell in?

The 100% needs to be a traveling TB Award with name plates and everything.

One good one and one that's like the sacko

 

[YoDudeguy1]

I got a couple pours, then got into the ridiculous food line to order one of everything and spend the rest of our tickets. Dark Lord ice cream is... interesting.

I really wanted to try that ice cream. But I was already so ******* soaked and wet and cold I couldn't even fathom getting colder eating ice cream. Interesting bad? or interesting good?

Hell, make it the bottle that got fished out, assuming one of you guys stole it.

I thought I stole someone's Madeline but remembered today someone brought me one. I wondered why someone would put it in the pouch of my seat. Drunk powz is smarter than I give him credit for.

Sweet, chocolately, spicy, much dark fruit. It came in a Ben and Jerry's like container and I don't live too far from FFF so I just put it in my bag and took it home to re-freeze.

Guys, guys, guys!

There's a dude on BA that has the perfect solution to the problem of people having their bottles stolen:

I've reached out to Three Floyds with my potential solution and sincerely hope they take me up on it if they continue with this year's format:

I've proposed a "locker-type" arrangement where we'd be located on festival grounds providing a glorified coat-check operation that would allow for a safe and secure place to store one's goods for the day. Everything would be categorized and held under lock and key. In order to keep everything in order, your ticket number would be tagged on your belongings and required to pick them up later in the day. A premium service would be provided that would transport the remaining items to major cities around IN and IL the next day; stopping at key POPs (points of pick-ups).

I think I've been to a brewery release that did this. I just can't remember who it was.

Waiting for a suggestion that involves drones. Then I'm sold.

Rizdac caught me still drunk from the night before DLD rocking to Miley dancing like nobody was watching.

 

[mrpeterandthepuffers]

Maybe we just need to invest another $5 a guy in compound security. I think it would be worth it, he could monitor the DL stash and deter theft, keep JEG out, and bop me on the head with a night stick when it's time for a little nap.

 

[evilc]

keep JEG out

You gonna post your JEG video on here?

This was at 7:30 AM. powz87 went to bed approximately 3.5 hours previous, had already been up an hour, and was almost complete with a bottle of Boone's Farm at this time.

Dammit I laughed too hard at this.

Your or Rizdac need to post my quotes. Those were gold
