| - I was all psyched to go to Ditch Fridays. I put our names on the 9group guestlist, but the bouncer said i wasn't. (big minus). He directed us to another table where there would be a "promo sign-up." Half the table was for the midsummer's vip checkin, the other was the promo signup that wasn't opening until noon, so there was a bit of confusion there. we ended up just waiting in the general line since we saw it was moving. the girls went to sign up on the promo list and were able to get a line pass (which we saved for Rain the next day) and 1 free drink pass (+!). guys ended up paying $30 to get in.
when we were walking in, the bouncer checked our bags... and took ALL my snacks. mistake on my part... i should have known they wouldn't let us in with food or bottled water. once in, this place is beautiful. 2 big pools, the first one in wasn't that crowded because the dj is farther in. there's nice looking cabanas along the far side of the pool. also random ankle high water areas to wade in. there were also tables to gamble at but i didn't see anyone play. we were probably in around 12:30, and all the chairs were already taken. we managed to snag a random chair in front of the dj and speakers (very loud). the 5 of us shared a chair and took turns going in and out of the pool.
also, bartenders were nice. waitresses were cute... the crowd was pretty chill, and it wasn't too crazy (yet). overall, it was an ok experience, but we were getting tired from the sun and the loud music blasting right in front of us so we left around 2. :(
