Went for the Great Arizona Picnic on Saturday and was not that impressed. When I go to something like this I expect to try something new and exciting. What did I get here? The same Spinato's pizza and Salty Senorita food I can get out in town, not to mention mega chains like Buffalo Wild Wings, The Melting Pot and Chipotle. Meh... The Abolut tent was nothing special either, I mean, you can get that stuff in any bar. Why stand around with a bunch of D-bags in a tiny fenced in area fighting to get a drink?
Let me sum up the event...
1. Wait in line to get in...
2. Wait in line to get a 21 year old wrist band...
3. Wait in line to get tickets...
4. Wait in line to get food...
5. Wait in line to get into the Beer/Absolut/Patron areas...
6. Wait in line for a drink...
7. Wait in line for the Port O Potty...
Repeat steps 3-7...
The only bright spot was the beer garden, got to try a lot of unique beers that I have never seen in any stores in Phoenix, so that was kinda cool.
