How many times did you see someone throwing up on the farm. I have to say three times including myself. I saw someone throw up and I thought they were going to die from the horrible sounds they were making.
I can honestly say in the 5 Roos Ive been to I havent seen one person throwing up...maybe Im just never in the right(or in this case possibly wrong) place agt the the right/wrong time
i'll never forget watching WSP in '05 and some kid on the lawn just walked right by me and puked without losing a step. didnt get it on anyone. just kept walking like nothing happened. it really was amazing.
i was a little grossed out at first, then i just started thinking about how truly hard that must have been for him to have complete control of his body like that. i'm not exaggerating when i say that he didnt stop. it was like it was a natural function for him.
I've thrown up once at Roo... it was right before Tortoise in 07, I was laying down, resting, during James Blood Ulmer, then I get up and throw up from (I think) over hydration. It wasn't bad or anything, I'd just drank too much gatorade... like almost a whole bladder pack.
yeah, downing a bunch of liquid really fast when you're dehydrated will do that I've done the same thing in the past. As much as it sucks, I felt awesome afterwards.
There was a dude in the tent across from us in tent only in 06 who seemed to puke every morning. It became our really unpleasant alarm clock. On the last night he even brought a young lady in the tent with him...they both puked on Monday morning...then she washed her mouth out with the bottle of sh*tty bourbon that had floated around camp all weekend.

I've been to three Roos and seen some drunk fratboy or deranged hippie puke each and every time. The worst was in 2006 when this hippie kid puked on the side of my tent just as I was waking up. I looked at him, he looked at me, and all he said was, "Sorry, bro."

puked in 07' and 08'
Both times it was a Thursday, right after we got done setting everything up and started sharing corn...i was just sitting there in 07' and felt fine, but then i think the no sleep/no food/heat caught up to me. along w/ a mix of heady corn.... In 08' it was during set up, overheated immensely! Neither times i had been drinking alcohool. But my stomach is very sensitive. I usually have a plastic container (cut off the top) so i can puke in it, w/o getting anything around the site, and throw away. (plastic milk container)
In 07' i think it was due to mass gatorade consumption 08' I just overheated. and didnt drink or eat enough. (damn adderalls)

One...me. I had alittle to much fun too early. The colors and sounds were just so pretty though mind you this was noon. The heat was raging but i didnt care that was until i got nautious and couldnt keep fluids down. I screamed cabbage from ween through the police, drinkin OJ to hydrate probably also was dumb, the vitamin c apparently intensifies the fun or misery in my case. But it didnt keep med from havin a blast sunday.
Ok, well here is my bonnaroo-puke story, and i sincerely hope it never happens to anyone...
i ate a bratwurst sandwich on Thursday night of 07, right after Tea Leaf Green. I knew as soon as I ate it, it wasn't settling right. So anyways, we made it back to camp and I slept it off until about 5:45 am, until i woke up dying of thirst. So I grabbed a bottle of "water" and took two big gulps -- only to find out it was the Grey Goose I had given to my friend on his b-day the day before. We had the label peeled off, but I didn't notice in my early-morning sleepy/drunken haze. I puked all over the place.

I was next to this guy at Willie Nelson last year, he was sitting down on the ground holding himself up with one arm staring at the ground. He started puking when the crowd was cheering for Willie and the louder the crowd would roar the more he would puke. People started doing Mexican hat dance style dances around him and I know at least 6 people took pictures of him.
I was thinking about starting a website called pukinattheroo.com where people could go to Bonnaroo with a mission of getting as many pictures of people blowin chunks as possible and then posting them.
I never saw anyone puke but I def heard it a few times coming from random portos, one thing I saw that was truly disgusting tho was at ABB in 05, I was chillin towards the back just sitting there and this dude was in front of me with a big blanket draped over him which I thought was kinda strange but whatever, After about 5 min he just stands up and runs away leaving a big fresh pile of feces steaming on the lawn.

One of the first things I saw at Bonnaroo was some guy puking. I was at the very front of the Allman Brothers show in 2005 and this guy next to me was having a horrible trip...he couldn't stop puking.
We just left the pit for Tool and I was standing over near the wall where everyone was peeing. Out of the blue this guy ran right behind me and puked...splashed up on the back of my legs. I just turned around and asked if he was alright and he took off running. I can't get mad cause he did not mean to get any on me...puke happens.

a+ post
I second that. Great post. Someone on these boards posted about standing behind this guy at a show and fecal matter was falling from his shorts.The poster said he tapped the guy on the shoulder to let him know he was crapping himself and the guy reached around and got some on his hand and just started smiling.
What a hilarious thread! Happily, I haven't witnessed any pukefests on the farm. I do remember being at a show at Madison Square Garden many moons ago when a guy puked in the aisle down on the floor, and we kept watching people slip in it going to their seats. I don't think anyone bothered to clean it up.

I puked twice: once into my green recycle bag and one down the door of a particularly full port-o-potty.
Both as a result of my brother feeding me too many "Pepperridge Farms" brownie cookies while we listened to the Dead in our tent during the deluge of '04.
I've done the same thing in the past. As much as it sucks, I felt awesome afterwards.
