FREE BEER!

TheMilwaukeeChannel.com - News - Lights Go Out At Summerfest

    Ooops...  I'm supposed to be heading down to the Fest shortly, but it seems there is absolutely no electricity throughout the entire festival grounds.  So, there are no live bands other than those who are street performers.  And it's supposed to be powerless for another hour or so. 

    However, and this is the truly beautiful thing, when the power's out, the cash registers don't work.  The beer still pours, and, since it's best to get rid of it before it gets warm, well...  I can only imagine it's going to be pretty insane by the time I roll in.  But, hey!  I may even go early to help get rid of some of that potentially warm beer!  I know...  Community service such as this is a horrible job, but someone's got to do it.

  6. After the Perfect Storm, all the local delis were giving away free stuff. My sister and I actually cooked a pizza on a shovel, over an open fire.

    My sister was a mere child then... "This is how they made pizza back in the Dinosaur age, right?"
