Today was to be the start of Germany's Octoberfest....alas not this year. It is on my bucket list to attend. Anyone here ever attended?

Yes, and it was amazing. Very civilized, and drunken. The food is almost as good as the bier. It was tremendous and worth the effort.
we had a funny episode at the end of the first night there. Since Munich hotels were totally booked, we had to stay in Bad Tölz, which was about a 30 min train ride. The trains stop rolling at a certain time, and at the end of the Oktoberfest, which closes surprisingly early....around 9:30p or so....we hustled off to catch the last train back. As we approached what we thought was our train on the specific track, we hopped on the train and looked at the destination, which in this case was NOT Bad Tölz. We had about a minute to decide whether the train was ours or not. Since we couldn’t sort it out, we panicked and hopped off the train, fearing we couldn’t head off to the wrong town. Keep in mind that we’re pretty drunk at this point. So we’re standing on the platform as the last train of the night leaves. We ask WTF to the people at the info desk only to find out we find out we were on the right train, but that it breaks apart into three sections when the tracks diverge. How could we know that. So, we were on the right train, just not the right cars. Again, WTF. We ended up taking an expensive cab back to our hotel.
Am I a dick if I point out they didn't have airplanes in the year 1810?The first time I flew into Munich, I was struck by the villages on the approach. It looked like I was landing in the year 1810.
Don't matterAm I a dick if I point out they didn't have airplanes in the year 1810?
Mr Peabody.... suhweet! Nice one!Don't matter
Ahhh, if it was only you I had to convince, life on the AOTF would be so much better. Had a couple of my shower pics dinged the other day... Oh, the humanity! Why do mods hate the human body? 'Publicans!I don't see any rules that are being broken.
'Mericans! You know all those German bastards were standing around having a good laugh watching you. How could you know that? Exactly. That's exactly what they wanted. Bastards. (and I'm German by the way. If I was there, I'd have laughed too!).
