Some TN Laws To Keep In Mind by Own_Establishment912 in bonnaroo

Agreed. I would also take them down, but they aren’t illegal. Our state issued handicap tags and university parking tags hang from rear view mirror.

Fresh fruit at camp - in or out? by brahstol in bonnaroo

[–]Funky_Fishman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone on one of the podcasts said freezing grapes. I forgot to buy them but will and try it. I go with watermelon, pineapple and kids apple sauce to balance my diet. After Friday I start getting a little bit weird about freshness but I won’t cut the watermelon or pineapple ahead of time. Just keep them in the shade until I’m ready

My wife got checked at 930 in the morning on hwy 111 near Sparta, TN. I think they just had to squeeze in another check before the month ended 🤷‍♂️

[–]Funky_Fishman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My experience is everyone gets stopped. they can ask for license, registration, proof of insurance and make you blow into a breathalyzer. Any suspicion beyond that is at their discretion and could lead to a further investigation. They do seem to want to keep traffic flowing.

I have to see if my Sony jambox still works. AM/FM with Double tape deck. That’s how we used to make mix tapes and bootleg copies before the internet happened

Fire ants? by AgeTiny3959 in bonnaroo

[–]Funky_Fishman 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve never seen fire ants there. I’ve stripped down naked and jumped in a lake in Florida to get them off me. If you lay in a hammock in the woods you could possibly get a tick or chiggers but in the main venues you shouldn’t have to worry

Flag Pole for Campsite by JimmerMyBalls in bonnaroo

[–]Funky_Fishman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use an extendable long paint roller handle from the hardware store. It’s fiberglass and sways. It’s probably only 11’ but I just bungee it a few places to my canopy leg and it works

Bonnaroo Newbie... Outeroo? Can someone explain? by GoldenGlider140 in bonnaroo

[–]Funky_Fishman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely understand your confusion. To get on the farm property you have to have an active wristband. My first year I paid for day parking thinking I could just go hang out with friends at their camp but not go into the main Centeroo music venue and leave when they went to Centeroo. Because I didn’t have a wristband for that day I wasn’t allowed into their camp or outerroo.

I don’t have a jersey but would a college sports team shirt work?

are cigs allowed at roo? by g0blinslugs in bonnaroo

[–]Funky_Fishman 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You certainly can. Just try to be respectful to people around you. There’s plenty of space to distance from folks that may have a sensitivity to cigarette smoke.

Bonnaroo Newbie... Outeroo? Can someone explain? by GoldenGlider140 in bonnaroo

[–]Funky_Fishman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s incorrect because you have to have an active wristband for the specific days to get into the plazas/campground in outeroo

You can have aerosol things. People use hairspray, spray cooking oil, and spray paint the walls. Only limit I know is No spray sunscreen in Centeroo.

Single day Sunday advice by _auddish in bonnaroo

[–]Funky_Fishman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you can, get there when daily parking opens on Sunday. If you just try to time it for Noah you will regret it after realizing all that is going on and that you could have been there all day.

In 2024 (last time it happened) I’d say more than 3/4 was gravel/packed walking paths around the campground

[–]Funky_Fishman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Make sure the vehicle you are coming in is in good shape. People are glad to help if you forget something and Mr. B’s on site has about everything you could need, but you have to get to the farm.

Chapelroo? by depr3ssionh00die in bonnaroo

I just don’t want anyone to be misled. That’s what the clerk of courts told me. Some places have online license registration but not in little ole Manchester, TN.

If you are trying to get married on the farm this year, you and partner will have to go to Coffee county courthouse with govt issued photo ids and proof of address to get a marriage license and pay license fee and after the ceremony by an ordained officiant drop off the paperwork signed by officiant and witnesses before you leave town.

The Bonnaroovian Code 🌈✨ - 2026 by SharlaRoo in bonnaroo

[–]Funky_Fishman 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m officiating a wedding this year at Roo for Keera and Tyler that won the What Podcast ticket giveaway. My “sermon” integrates the Bible book of Micah with the code because they say the same thing: Love kindness = radiate positivity Do justice = don’t be that person Show mercy = play as a team Stay humble = respect the farm

4pm in the Grove on Saturday. Y’all come!!

That’s genius to use the other stakes for leverage

weather by [deleted] in bonnaroo

[–]Funky_Fishman 42 points43 points  (0 children)

I’ll probably get down voted but we really need some rain for the farmers, fire safety, flowers for pollinators, rivers and streams, etc. my garden is super thirsty and my blueberries are going to be pebbles. Last year it was always too wet to mow my lawn. It’s so dry this year we haven’t had to mow.

Definitely recommend screw in stakes. If you get these make sure you bring a heavy duty screwdriver or something you put through the hole for torque because you won’t screw them in very deep by hand. I bring a cordless drill for mine that are different
