    By the way has anyone gone out on recycling day to the recycling truck and screamed at the top of there lungs???  They get freaked out!

    Eh.  Was sort of disappointed at how CF’ed it was at Moore Square last time.  As well as going to plastic sample glasses.  The Bull City version is a little more spread out.

    I didn’t get tickets this year either.  Last year’s late session was downright scary.  Hundreds of passed out folks, the infamous vomit corners, and the fact that most brewers were out of the good stuff.

    if you go to the beerfest website, they are already sold out of tickets at ALL of the raleigh and cary locations….

    The crappy thing is that they dont even tell you who is going to be there when the tickets go on sale. 


    They also booted a charity event that weekend so they could have the Beer Fest instead.


    I guess the charity even wouldnt make them as much money.

    Yea FootHills is always the last place to sell out…
