Well it was a toss up and inlaws from out of town won. So I went to the gun show. I had been to the same one a couple of years ago but man I didn't remember it being this huge. Who went to Octoberfest and was it as good as usual or did the tent collapse tone it down.

Octo-beer-fest gets worse and worse each year...

Now they charge $3 just to get in and $14/pitcher for domestic beer. Unless you just want to see fat drunken slobs in lederhosen doing the chicken dance save your money and go to the bar.

I had a great time at Octoberfest...this was the first time I have been since moving here. A bit expensive....but after the first few pitchers it just didnt' matter!!!!

Gun show was OK.... prices are getting ridiculous on ammo and the "collectables" are definately getting up there.

Oktoberfest always has been overrated to me since they really don't serve much real German beer.

I worked Octoberfest Thur-Sun and had a blast, I love seeing drunk people do stupid things. Reference the gun show, been to one you've been to them all.

That's not really true. Some are significantly better than others.

Went to both, spent more money at octoberfest, I am buying a gun cheaper after the show at RJ's. Had a blast both nights I went to the octoberfest.

I think I must have been one of those "fat drunken slobs" doing the chicken dance. But man I did have a good time....

Even found some money in the bottem of several of my pitchers of beer!!!
