Oktoberfest 2009

[Michael]

Anyone else going to Oktoberfest? Just two weeks away

[RealNC]

Bratwurst und Bier.

I live in Greece now and it would be a pretty big trip, so nope

[d2kx]

I don't drink alcohol, so not that excited. But I'll be in Munich around that time due to a school trip for a week :P

A German that doesn't drink beer?

Yeah, and guess what, not all Germans like "Bratwurst", "Wei?wurst" and "Volksmusik" Gotta love prejudices, and during "Oktoberfest" they all come together

How can anyone not love Wei?wurst? Especially if eaten the Bayern way (zuzeln?) and served with a liter of Augustiner. Haha, but yes I understand.

[frische]

Wei?wurst was actually invented by the French.

Seriously though, Oktoberfest is the worst time to see Munich.

I've been to Munich enough before, I am not going to see the town.. just Theresienwiese and my other favorite biergartens to get my quota of Augustiner and (fresh) Spaten for a while

We'll also attend several "Biergartens" (LOL) outside the Oktoberfest during the time... when you see someone with an "AMD - Smarter Choice" t-shirt, it's probably me

There is another big german Volksfest called Cannstatter Wasen at the same time near Stuttgart. Some people say it's better that the Oktoberfest. But there are always fanboys .
I never have been at the Oktoberfest in Munich but I definitively want to go there. Maybe next year.


P.S. I like Wei?wurst, Bratwrust and of course Bier!
