5 Simple Explanations For Why You’re Going to Oktoberfest Next Year.
Posted By Annabelle Harlotta on November 6, 2009
There is no other festival like Munich’s famous Oktoberfest. People sometimes ask what makes it so unbelievably great, wondering why sitting in a tent, drinking beer can possibly seem like the most wonderful thing in the world. It’s not that hard to explain — here are 5 reasons why.
Not only are they already extremely beautiful, but Oktoberfest is a giant excuse for thousands of gorgeous Bavarians to put on outfits that insanely accentuate their ample chests. If you can tear your ogling eyes away for a second, you’ll feel like you’re in some kind of weird period movie, where everyone is wearing a corset, except it’s the present day and you’re all really, really drunk. It’s heaven on earth.
#4: The Beer Just Never Really Stops.
Every other bar in the entire known world will kick you out at least 5 hours before the same thing will happen at Oktoberfest. In fact, they seem to encourage insane, messy behavior (with limits) before throwing anyone out, ever.
#3: German Music is… Special.
While you might not enjoy singing along to ‘I Will Survive’ under normal circumstances, doing so in the context of Oktoberfest often becomes ridiculously fun. Once you’ve got up on a bench, danced with a beautiful Bavarian 20-something, and done the YMCA dance with a liter of beer in your hand, you’ll appreciate why the music is so corny and perfect, all at once.
#2: The Security is Ridiculous.
When you have a tent with 8,000 people getting unbelievably drunk, there’s definitely going to be some tempers flaring. Glasses will go flying, people will get into fights, things will get messy — right? But it turns out the security at Oktoberfest is so ridiculously fast and well-controlled, that it’s almost impossible to actually see a fight, because it’s likely been broken up before even starting, and the instigators immediately thrown out.
#1: Getting Drunk, With Beer, is the Entire Point.
Sure, there are wine festivals, fancy beer festivals, vodka festivals — all that stuff. But nowhere in the world is there a massive, massive party entirely devoted to consuming beer in big quantities, with other people, in tents. It is the apotheosis of everything great about beer in the first place, the camaraderie, the silly excitement, the fatty foods — enshrined in the best festival ever created.
