 | 	- Thank goodness I had a DealChicken offer that got us in at 2-4-1.  Otherwise, I would have felt like we were seriously ripped off!  We park and get in the long line of what i thought was the line to get in.  Something told me to walk ahead towards the gate.  I told J to stay in line, just in case.  I walked ahead and finally see some signs...which were about 25 yards (100+ people) from where J was standing. Those signs stated that people that already had tickets/vouchers could go straight to the gate, so I flagged J down to come on up.  We get to the gate and get in pretty quickly. I'm glad I walked ahead, cause I know I would have been pissed to have to stand in that line for nothing. 
Pretty much everything from that point kinda just went downhill.  
We walk over to get tokens.  A little voice in my head as we were driving there told me to stop off at the bank.  But I ignored the voice.  Maybe because part of me figured why wouldn't an event like this NOT have Square, so you'd be able to use your credit/debit card.  Should have listened to the voice.  I was informed they only took cash for tokens.  I had $10 on me (which is rare, I never carry cash), so we got 5 tokens.  
We walk around for a few minutes and decide to stop at one stand due to there not being a long line.  Word to the wise, the longer the line - the better the food.  No line usually equates to..umm...slop.  See taco photo.  The vendor that we got the bad tacos from had mac and cheese that wasn't too bad though.  But we were at the TACO FESTIVAL.  Not the mac and cheese festival.  :(
Literally no shade and definitely no seats to be found, unless you were purchased VIP tickets.  Sadly, this is the 3rd S.R.Fs event that we've gone to where we've been completely disappointed.  And honestly, this just seemed like an excuse for some to start drinking before noon and get piss drunk. 
Total Time Spent at the Taco Festival = 30 minutes
Total Spent = $16 (thank gawd we didn't have to pay for parking)
Will We Attend Another Taco Festival = Nope.
