Seriously though....

We did have a ball at the concert. We showed up at 230, and were shown to a room where we waited for TWO hours. We were beginning to have some serious doubts about what we had gotten ourselves into, but just about the time we were ready to pack our bags and get out of dodge was the time when they came and got us. So we were informed that we were all being taken to the main venue, meaning we were going to be INSIDE the concert. Then we were instructed to fan out, not bunch up, but to stay about 10 feet apart and patrol the grounds. They wanted us to walk through the crowds and bust people for underage drinking, and just keep the peace. They fed us anything we wanted from the food tents all night long, and we got all the pop, or water we wanted for free. They paid us a pretty penny for 10hrs work, and we got to get up close and awesome seats for the concert.

While they walked us up the hill, past all the fans waiting in line it was kinda strange. I mean here we are walking past everybody and going to man our post. But the fans were cheering us on and clapping. (Mostly because they were pumped that they were going to be let in soon) So that was funny. Then when they opened the gates it was crazy. People were running like crazy to get down in front to see Kid Rock.

The highlights of the evening were trying to talk 2 incredibly intoxicated individuals to sit down. The gal kept telling me she was "Oooookaaaay" and that I didn't have to worry cuz she had a room that night. However she took great care to point out the fact that "I need to get laid in a bad way, Ya know what I'm saying?.... I mean... Ya know??" I was dying it was so funny. The whole time she was wobbling forward and backward and forward and backward. So I kept asking.... after the third time of grabbing her to stop her from falling.... "Are you sure you don't want to sit down. I know you're fine, but I'm worried about your leg. I mean, it looks like maybe you need a rest. I don't want you to hurt your leg." I KNOW it didn't make sense, but it didn't have too, she was drunk! lol

The other highlight was when I got to use my assessment skills and make my sister hand over her Coke to a Hypoglycemic guy. He wasn't making much sense, and he was shaky and sweaty, and asking for sugar water. So I started talking to him and realized what was going on, so I told Kerry to give him her pop. I think she was a little ticked, but she handed it over. He drank it and started to come around a bit. Which was cool to watch actually. You could tell while he was drinking it that he was starting to get a little more steady and calm.... It was cool to watch. After about 10 minutes he decided he was good and went back to his friends. I then had to explain to my sister why I made her give up her coke to the stranger. I was mostly happy that I passed that whole Diabetic test with a 96% the week before! lol. You never know when you might use that!

Overall the crow was pretty tame, I didn't really get into the pit where all the crazy stuff was going on, I stayed on the outside. I could of gotten as close as I wanted to but I personally chose to stay about mid-way back. I was happy. I felt it was an awesome concert, and heck for free, I wasn't going to complain where I was.

Note to self though..... Whoever came up with the idea of putting 12,000 drunk imbeciles on a MOUNTAIN to watch a concert needs to be knocked upside the head! Hello!!! Sloping ground, unsteady people.... recipe for disaster my friend, recipe for disaster!
