I KNOW THIS SOUNDS CRAZY BUT I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A BUFFETT CONCERT! I WILL BE GOING ON APRIL 21 AND WILL BE TRAVELING FROM OUT OF TOWN. WHAT WOULD BE A GOOD TIME TO GET THERE FOR PARKING AND PARTYING?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, a virgin!

For the 8:00pm show in Cincinati each year, we roll into the lot to start tailgating at 6:00........................... AM.

No seriously, we do.

Enjoy your first show!

He's right....you shouldn't pass out until AFTER the concert! Make sure you're able to cruise around the parking lot and take it all in.

and yelling in caps the whole time wouldn't make to many parrotheads happy, either.

enjoy yourself, and remember you paid to see buffett, not pass out in the parking lot.

welcome to BN.

Beer...water...beer...water...beer...water...beer...water....

I did it in Anguilla and it worked like a charm! I actually outlasted most the people I was with!

Did you spend the whole concert in the bathroom? I tried the whole water between drinks once. I still got drunk, just peed twice as much.

Great plan!

I was in Vegas a couple years back and there was this one dude....passed out against the wall right next to the entry to the concert at the MGM

Be sure to EAT something too

Remember not to get TOO much sun.

If you absolutely have to get wasted, do it around lunchtime and spend the afternoon coming down to a nice relaxing buzz just in time for the show.

EAT.

Dress accordingly, and don't let anyone shame you out of cheezy hats, beads, leis, etc. No matter how crazy you dress for a Buffett concert, rest assured there will always be SOMEONE dressed crazier and/or doing something crazier.

HAVE FUN and welcome to BN!

I am another first timer going to my first Buffett concert in Houston. I have been a longtime fan though since my college days. This is my first time to a concert because, in times past, I have always tried to go see Jimmy whenever he came to Houston, but he was always sold out or tickets were just too expensive. (I am a teacher/coach and therefore don't make much.

) However, I was able to enter a contest online through the Houston Chronicle newspaper and I won some tickets to see JB!!!!

WHOO-HOOO!!! I can tell ya, I was dancing for the next 2 days and all of my co-teachers are jealous...

crazyfins · Post by **crazyfins** » April 20, 2007 2:15 pm

AAAAHHHH..... I REMEMBER MY FIRST TIME .......

GOTTA PACE YOURSELF....I ALWAY SEE THE YOUNG ONES TRYING TO GET A LOAD ON AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. I LIKE TO KEEP MYSELF AT THE HAPPY DRUNK LEVEL AND NOT TO GO TO THE PUK & TIRED DRUNK. YOU KNOW YOU WILL BE HOOKED ONCE YOU GO! I WISH I SCORED TIX. ENJOY! HAVE A DRINK FOR ME

With all these replies you would think it's your first time drinking. I'm assuming it's not.

crazyfins · Post by **crazyfins** » April 20, 2007 2:49 pm

WELL, IT IS A LOOOOONG DAY OF DRINKING. DID SOMEONE SAY 6AM? WE USUALLY START AROUND 11 IN PHILLY/NJ

WHAT'S WITH THE YELLING

I'M TRYING TO PACE MYSELF HERE

Seriously, don't hang in one place, check out the entire parking lot, stop and play the games, chat with others, enjoy yourself, you don't have to be falling down drunk to have a great time; that's my calling

caly · Post by **caly** » April 20, 2007 4:15 pm

Most important suggestion.
Enjoy the experience. You never forget your first time!!!

dawgfan · Post by **dawgfan** » April 20, 2007 4:17 pm
