Horror Stories

[crazydonk]

I have been reading up on quite a few festival forums as i am newbie. I just wanted to find out about some of the stories i have been reading up on are true?

That people tents are bombed/wrecked quite regulary?

People throwing piss about a fair bit?

Thefts quite common?

Toilets are unusable? (better of goin in woodland?)

Fighting is common?

Would appreciate if these could be answered.

- Didn’t see any tents bombed/wrecked.

- As sick as it is, yes ppl do normally piss in the pint cups and throw them. This happens at all festivals tho!

- Only had my camping chair stolen

- Toilets, I use desposable womens "she-wee" type things so I don’t have to sit on the seat or travel johns. But just hold ur breath/nose and pee fast and take baby wipes and anti bacterial hand gels!!!

- didn’t see one fight last year.

It's meant to be raining on and off all weekend so you could stand outside and have a shower to get all the piss off u that's what I'll probably do!!

That people tents are bombed/wrecked quite regulary?

Didn't see anyone doing this/anyones tents recked. I was in the first (red) campsite so we saw a lottttt of tents walking up to were the food was etc at the top campsite.

People throwing piss about a fair bit?

Didn't see this

Thefts quite common?

Didn't see/experience any thefts, but theres 60,000 people there, it will happen but only to a small unfortunate number I would imagine.

Toilets are unusable? (better of goin in woodland?)

They didn't seem that bad to be fair. It helps that theres outdoor cubacles as well.

Fighting is common?

Didn't even see 1 single fight which I was suprised about. I can go out in town and gaurenteed see at least 3 fights in one night. Yet at creamfields with 50,000 over 2 nights I saw nothing.

Would appreciate if these could be answered.

Mate, its dead bad, you get stabbed up every 3 seconds. And if youre not careful then your eyelids will get stolen and they will bomb your shoes and piss on your coat.

Nah, I've never seen the amount of trouble at Creamfields that is supposed to go on there. I really havent in all the years we've been going. A chav told my mate to get in a bin one year, but thats about it.

That sounds about right
