Slothberries on 12/29/12, I went to the bathroom as soon as Haleys Comet started up. This dude walked up to the urinal next to me, mumbling under his breath about how Haleys is his go-to piss song. Without looking at him, I tell him that I agree...its a dumb song.

Turn my head.....its dumbass OP

Not Phish, but at bonnaroo this past year me and my friends were laying down right before Radiohead's set. Two dudes walk by us and one says to the other, "I mean, I'm not gay, but I would totally suck a dick for a pack of cigarettes." All of us just died in laughter.

MySoula Oh man, conversations with the people next to us on lot were hilarious at blossom last summer.

My wife was pregnant so one of them ended up giving us a classic old school painted plastic picture frame as a gift to put in "the little one's" room. We called him Uncle Steve the rest of the time. Good times. We still have the frame somewhere around here btw.

Hit a few shows with a pregnant woman and you end up hearing some gems walking in.

I've never been to a Phish show before, but lately, I'm just feeling down, and someone told me I should come here...it's like...I don't even know anymore, how do I enjoy myself?"

TheArgus Permalink
TheArgus My brother has been to a few shows with me. He always says funny shit cause he is extremely straight edge and not all that fluent in the language of Pssshhhhhh. His first show was Knoxville in 2009. When Frankenstein began as the encore, he looks at me and asks, "So is this where the drummer takes off his dress?"

He accompanied me to Charlotte this year as well, and walking back to the car after the show, some spunion was trying to sell him nitrous. He didn't know what they were inflated with "You want me to BUY a balloon??!?!?"

TheArgus oh, and in the spirit of 2010, an ex and I had just arrived at Walnut Creek. I was wondering and looking around when we got on the lot, she asked me what I was looking for. I told her "Shakedown Street, its the heart of the town"

About 5 minutes later, she says, "Cory, there is no shakedown street around here" She had pulled out her smartphone and looked up "shakedown street" on it's GPS

MySoula In honor of 2010.

"Wook fight!"

This was at alpine after a wook threw a bottle or tookba swing at a girl post show in lot sat night. All I know is a bottle and punches were thrown and rather than looking like a wook fight, it looked like a mahl on mahl mating ritual before the police arrived.

During this same time some passed out dude was leaning against our friends rental car, a cobalt. So our friend keeps saying "cobalt armed!" and would flash the lights and beep the horn by locking it and half-passed out dude looked like a fly trying to get away from landing on a sticky pad. Try as he might, he couldn't get away, stand, or stay vertical without the car.

JTodd My buddy Ben from River Falls relayed this story to me @ @seth2112 via email the other day:

So there I am new years eve at the garden standing in line for
beer when this very young clueless sweetheart starts talking to me.
First she hands me one of those Uno cards and says she wants me to
have it. Okay maybe I am the clueless one that doesn't know what the
Uno game is at the shows but I accepted it anyway. She tells me that
this is her 2nd show and asked how many shows I have been to. I
replied that it would be difficult for me to come up with a number of
shows but if it helps I started to see Phish in 1990. Her eyes popped
wide open and her jaw dropped! She said she was born that year! Funny
stuff. Wish you were there. Hope all is well In Ohio Can't wait till
we do it again.
