After my experience here last weekend for the Arizona Center for Germanic Culture Oktoberfest, I'll only return in hopes of seeing a big improvement in the layout of the festival. The band faced west so all I saw when I arrived after 5PM was bright sunlight...no band. I could hear them, but could only see sunlight. The line(s) for beer (I only saw one) were ridiculously long so I never even got one!! Same with the brat line, but I was told not to even bother waiting because they had run out of brats before 5pm. All they were serving was poorly cooked turkey legs!
I noticed a sand volleyball court where I parked. Then I saw a few homeless people in the park, but I'm happy they found a "home" and hope they are allowed to stay. They probably pigged out on all the wasted, dumped in the trash food from the Oktoberfest.
