  • Hi Y'all I want to first say, I will be trying and supporting the food trucks and go to more in the future! This one star is about the organizers and the police that basically created a fiasco at the opening on Sunday. Did you all get a chance to try out the food trucks that weekend? Guess what, after a less than stellar day on Saturday, We decided to try out the place again! Yep, I felt since we gave it a 2.5 star rounded to 2, we would try it again because we may have been a bit judgmental or just mental....... 1. Orange Wrist Band - Decided to wear these for another 24 hours. Nice, orange, and wearing it on a warm day makes for many conversations. Guess what, I was selling it. Telling all to come to the Silverton, all about the trucks and the variety of foods and etc. 2. Confirmation - Oh yeah, asked the organizers and security how we can reenter on Sunday and they said come in through the exit line and bypass the regular line for the online and the cash paying attendants. (The long line) 3. Sunday - Got there at 11:30, The regular line was already about 120 yards long and getting longer. (Church everyone! Come on it is Sunday:)... 4. To Band or not to Band.... So, we stood in the line with the other orange wrist band peeps which was about 100 people compared to the many hundreds in the paying line. We were near the entrance and the others were lining on the side. We had a few peeps in the front of the regular line who must have been there for hours. I think the first 20 yards of people in the paying line were there for hours. 5. The coppers - The sun burned White Castle devotees in the front of the line were complaining about all us returning wrist band folks. We did not respond but just all explained what the organizers and security were telling us from the day before, just following the instructions and the rules and the benefit of buying the wristbands... The cops came up, and advised us in the exit line to disperse. We advised them of the organizers rules and so the cops said, okay, sorry we just got here. Then after minutes, they spoke to the organizers and the organizers also made comments to the crowd. Now, we were really set, the all the wrist band peeps lined up a bit tighter and the other lines were not happy. 6. The decision - The cops did not like the 12 people in front of the regular line who were sun burned and vocal. Meaning that these folks were complaining that they were there for hours and it was not fair and all that. The coppers made a decision to allow 10% of the wrist band folks to enter the exit line as normal, and the rest of us had to go to the back of the line. I asked the cop why make that decision to satisfy 12 people out of 100 of people who were following the rules. He said "I am making a command decision". Not sure , but when does a respectable decision include making one to suit 12 people who are NOT following the rules against 100 who followed the rule. He said, Sorry, just made a decision, go to the back of the other line. Well, that was the law! We pay for that! Very interesting. 7. The organizers - They retreated back to their cashier line. They did not stick up for their words, we looked at them and all we saw were their backs as they were walking away to count their cash. We headed to our car in the parking lot. All the parking attendants and security were telling the incoming crowd with wristbands to GO TO THE EXIT LINE. Where the cops were directing them against all logic and rules to the back of the other line. Funny. None of this matters. I apologize for ranting and a 1 star. It is just that organization and support are key to any event and this was not acceptable. The food is great, the trucks are fantastic, I give the food, the vendors a 5 STAR and will always support them. The organizers, and the attendants - shame on you for not supporting all of us that support you. Shame on us for paying for and accepting your rules and following them. The cops, I am afraid to comment on your abilities other than fact that I have been to many communist countries for work and all I can say is hmmmmm...... GK says continue to support the food trucks. This is capitalism in action. You get a great product for what you pay for. 5 star for them. Yeah.
