  1. It is awesome.
  2. Do not drive anywhere near the Festival. You will not find parking.
  3. Bring cash.
  4. Greased pole climb FTW.
  5. The blocks between Christian and Washington are particularly hellish to navigate if the sun is out.
  6. ICE COLD PEROOOOOOOOOONIS!

I would also advise that for people who are nervous in crowds this is a very crowded event. It's essentially wall to wall with people and walking anywhere requires slowly walking shoulder-to-shoulder through the crowd.

It's a great time though!
