Toy, statue, picture, whatever.

 

In 2016, I brought a 4 foot tall plush neon bird. I had someone throw it into the crowd during Chicken Huntin, I thought it would get destroyed, someone kept it.

Anyone remember the redneck dummies ICP threw into the crowd? Would be tore to shreds in no time. Was always rumored to have merch stuffed inside. I only ever came away with crinkled flyers. This was back in the 90's. Old school, whoop whoop!

If you get a ghetto hockey table, I'll bring my portable ping pong table along with paddles and balls.

Learn the timeline.

After you figure out everything you WANT to see...

KNOW that you will NOT be able to see it all.

You may have a "schedule" in your hands...

...just know that whoever you WANT/EXPECTED to see... may have been delayed. Maybe they stopped off to say 'Hi' to so-n'-so... maybe their golfcart was beset by well-wishers...

Give yourself about a 15min. intro/outro when you're looking at your watch and compare that time to the PHYSICAL DISTANCE you will need to traverse between venues.

Given the time of day/night and "various other" factors....

Keep in mind, that when it comes to GATHERING... "failure" is NOT an option... BUT...

... You would be hard-pressed to be able to be the first Juggalo to be able to see all that The Gathering and the Dark Carnival has to offer in just one viewing...

Take in and enjoy.

I spent my first few years "on my own".  - There are benefits.

..but Lemmy tell ya... There are SO many more, Gathering with FRIENDS!!!!

Even if you DO "Gather Solo" (as circumstances may force)... make friends of your neighbors and GATHER TOGETHER!!!

Many roads lead to Shangri-La. Not all have signs along the way.

 

"'Tis so," said the Duchess:  "and the moral of that is- 'Oh, 'tis love, 'tis love, that makes the world go round!"

"Somebody said," Alice whispered, "that it's done by everybody minding their own business!"

"Ah, well! It means much the same thing," said the Duchess, digging her sharp little chin into Alice's shoulder as she added

"and the moral of that is - "Take care of the sense, and the sounds will take care of themselves.'"

"How fond she is of finding the morals in things!" Alice thought to herself.
