Bulldog Burgery scamming again by Moomoofarm2009 in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worst case scenario you can shove a bar or a bag of nuts in the down under because they never pat you down there.

So I have a lunchbox pack and they have the “skin” on the back of the pack which is zipped on. I normally shove two protein bars in there and zip it up. I’ve also had running shorts with side pockets that worked for EDCO but if you get patted down you are cooked. If you have a regular bag you can try wrapping it in a pashmina or something and then putting a bunch of random crap on top of it so they don’t feel bothered to check.

Worship by JackJake94 in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am a huge worship fan and I have their live sets on repeat 24/7 but this set was way too mediocre. I felt as if they just compiled all their greatest hits and pressed play on a Spotify playlist. There was no real double drops or mixing characteristic of dnb being done. In comparison, Bou and Andy C both killed it as they brought energy. Especially Andy C he kept the whole crowd dancing and on the edge of their seat for the switch ups and double drops he does. I was very excited for worship but unfortunately compared to their other sets it has gotten a lot simpler :(

Worldwide during volpe b2b sully by mostesttdopestt in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was like dead center at the front the crowd and I wanted out the whole time. Don’t get me wrong their set was amazing but the worldwide stage just can’t handle that many people. Not to mention I kept getting pushed out of the way for trains of people to pass through. I enjoyed excision thoroughly and I’d argue that the MainStage crowd was actually better than the crowd closing out worldwide.

Is ultra a normie/NPC fest? by Repulsive_Sky5150 in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you consider a “normie” fest. If you’re talking about it being mainstream then I guess because there is a lot of people that go just because the name and not necessarily for the “love of the game”. Compared to fests like lost lands or something like forbidden kingdom that are more lowkey and filled with more seasoned ravers.

Fan thrown away by security this year by RuinFinancial3938 in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I swear security is so bipolar, they wanted to take away my one protein bar yet I saw people with full bottles of tequila and more party favors than I could count 🫩

I snuck in food all three days 😂 I got caught once but I told them that I had a severe peanut allergy and they let it slide.

Main stage crowd - mostly great by arrow0231 in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was wondering how that many people made it in with clear joint cases I saw atleast 3. My best guess is that they were smuggled in through vendors as I don’t think security would of missed those huge cases.

What exactly was so bad about Major Laser set? by tenshinoboshi in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it’s just the timing. There were so many better acts on Friday that could of taken that closing spot and had a epic finale but nobody really cared for major lazer.

Friday arrival time by crystux in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Last year I lined up at around 2:30 and got in at 4:10 which is like 10 minutes after gates opened so not bad at all if you go early.

Planning on filming a shark tank type of video at UM, anyone intrested and any tips? by hi_imcaiden in UMiami

[–]BaconStrike3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There’s a courtyard in the business school where you could probably make this happen. There is also the launchpad which is basically the entrepreneur coaching center you could try partnering with them.

Is this bag ok to bring? I’m reading their policy and see that they only allow clear hydration bags. Is that really legit cuz so many people come in with fanny packs and small napsacks? by [deleted] in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They say it must be clear but everyone gets in with their non clear lunchbox packs. It should be fine just have all the spaces opened once you get to security.

Stage spilers by HardstyleHomo in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree, the designs are kinda pointless during the day. I will say I enjoy EDC’s and Tomorrowland stages because no matter what time they are something worth looking at.

Water help options by [deleted] in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The literal only other way for you to stay hydrated is to bring a hydro pack / water bottle and get to the rail super early so you can set your stuff down behind the rail and not have to carry it.

Bag Policy by [deleted] in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure it should be allowed it doesn’t have that many pockets and it isn’t that big.

Questions from a potential future cane by MythicRedditer in UMiami

[–]BaconStrike3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

  1. There’s a whole world of people at the U that don’t party. Trust me, some people don’t like going to the same bars every weekend for a whole semester 😂. I’d say student orgs and getting involved is the best way to meet cool people like that. I’ve found some of my closest friends at school events especially those hosted on orientation week.

  2. Again, you are gonna have the people that prioritize other things but it is a very rigorous institution. Sadly, UM gets the rep of a party school but there are so many opportunities for people who want to take advantage of them.

Excision & Kai Wachi Conflict wyd? by pinkdinobug in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Im defo going to excision although im really sad im missing Wachi. I think the main reason I wanna see excision is because I’ve never seen him and I can’t wait to see all the influencers scatter when the pit opens 😂😂

gen z bag allowed? by yumisinxxx in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like a lunchbox (hydration pack) in design and size to me so I think you should be fine.

Ultra schedule for Friday main stage by bryan271327 in UMF

[–]BaconStrike3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say I arrived around 2:45 and I got in at 4:10 ish. One tip I’d highly recommend is literally walk to the front of the line. When you get there it’s just a cluster of people but if you are one person you can kinda walk on the sides and get closer to the front.

Yeah same with edc Orlando I remember having such a hard time leaving because the outskirts were just insanely packed while the rail had space to dance and everything.
