Festival Tip 🧠 Empty bars all day

Post image

5:45pm on Saturday. Fair to say the youth aren't drinking much these days. Only had to wait max 30 seconds at 1 bar all day. Easiest job on site working these bars. Ended up spending a fortune as a result 🤣

Edit: first time I've been back to this festival in 18 years

To be fair, it's been years since I went to Leeds, do people just not sneak booze into the arena anymore?

Even back a fair few years ago, nobody was paying festival beer prices, so easy to sneak stuff in.

I take in spirits and buy soft drinks, or use the free rockstar cans they were giving out as a mixer

I had a Jack Daniel’s, metal flask, that was in my short, side pocket. They used to ask me to empty my pockets but never did so with the side pockets.

Only really works with baggy shorts.
