Well for Christmas my girlfriends parents told us they want to take us to Germany, and knowing that Oktoberfest in on my "to do" list they thought we should go in mid Sept. I've been to Munich before but I was only 17 and it wasn't during Oktoberfest. What are some "must do's" while I'm there. Do you need to buy tickets or anything like that in advance to get into the tents or just show up early? I thought seeing the official tapping of the keg by the mayor would be fun to see but it looks like the tent they do that in is pretty small so I don't know if that is possible. We certainly will not spend more than a couple days in the actual tents and will then want to do some touring of the country. Help me out. I want to get a decent plan of what we should do while we are there. Thanks
