Not this year but in 2008 there were guys going round Red in Leeds with a garden gnome shouting 'neck the gnome'. The rule was you down in then fill it up with as much of your random alcohol as you can. My mate downed it at 4pm Wednesday, went from sober to completely smashed in about 10 minutes and then slept until Friday morning. Impressive.

Bloke at Guns N Roses (Leeds)

It was pitch black over the left side of the main stage and there was this 40 to 45 year old bloke off his trolley. One minute he was properly head-banging to Welcome to the Jungle, smoking his fag. Axl decides to play something new from Chinese Democracy and the guy passes out on the floor. We turn around to look down and he's still smoking his fag even though he's passed out. The fag dies out and he's still on the floor. Live and Let Die comes on and the guy gets back up and does the exact same thing again.

After Live and Let Die, the guy vanished into the crowd and we never saw him again. That was probably the worst I saw, although there was this girl coming out of the arena after Arcade Fire who was walking into everybody and starting fights, fell over, started some more fights, fell over and then tried to get onto the ferris wheel.

I can't remember much of Sunday, so I could be any of these hahaha. I remember going into the arena Sunday morning, a bit drunk from the night before, buying more drink, then I sortof remember being pulled out of the crowd before Delphic for no reason? (must've been a reason) and my mind is blank from when I was lifted over the barrier to waking up 4am Monday in my tent. O_O What a waster.

Saw a guy asleep in the main arena at Leeds using one of the many half-eaten Yorkshire puddings as a pillow.

Stood next to a young lad of about 17 next to one of the burger vans at the reading arena entrance who was leaning against a tree being sick. He tried to stand up straight, changed his mind half way through and then promptly projectile vomited into his own wellies. An outstanding display. Made all the more funny by the fact that it was about 11am.

Rumour has it I was trying to crawl to the toilet at 2am on the saturday morning then passed out complaining I'd been sick on my shoes.

[MJMilz14]

I was half expecting to read about my lovely young friend who passed out at the start of Paramore on sunday night over by the burger vans and FR tent, then when she eventually came round vomited all over my lap, before passing out again, and having to carry her to the medical tent, and then to the welfare tent to sleep it off.

I just about made it back from Blink-182 but she missed the lot. Eventually picked her up at 1am.

Deary me.

I think my proudest moment was on the Sunday at Leeds last year, I went back to the tent around mid day whilst my friends went to see Jack Penate or some such nonesense, and sat about on me todd having a quiet drink, a large group of Geordies, friendly people that they are, then descended upon me with several bags of wine.  I don't remember a great deal after this except spending the entirety of Florence and The Machine facing backwards and telling my friend that the stage show was a bit bland.  Next thing I know it's midnight and I can hear my friends outside panicking saying that they don't know where I am, I had passed out BEHIND our tent and woke up with one of the cardboard packets from the wine stuck to my face, it was a good day.

Best bit about that was his mate standing near him pretending that he didn't know him and moving further and further away with each heave....

as a CAT on red camp i saw some pretty messy people haha
shout out to the lads from manchester funneling at about 11am on saturday morning. they were timing themselves to funnel 3 pints in row (running from one funnel to the next). one of them did it in 23 seconds i think! and he was fine and still seemed only tipsy when we left their camp like 20 mins later. must have been wasted later on tho!

manyy people at red rave completely plastered. some bloke wondering around kept asking us for tape to stick a naked plastic woman to him more securely lol.

but yea most wasted would go to a lad camped on valley between red and orange. we found him at about 5am curled up in the most awkward position outside his collapsed tent, with just his head wrapped inside the tent. we think the tent may have rolled down the hill with him still inside!
we woke him up (he was still completely plastered and out of it) and sat him down on a chair at the bottom of the hill where he promptly passed out again.
went back again an hour later to check on him and found him half way up the hill passed out curled up in a ball. must of crawled up looking for his tent. we gave up and left him this time! lol

On the border between orange and red on either the weds or the thurs at Leeds. A lad got tied to a chair with alot of tape, couldnt move, someone had stuck a note to him saying slap me, a girl walked past and gave him the hardest slap! Pretty large crowd gathered around before the security guy came and untied him!

Also during queens of the stone age next to the soundtower, guy probably in his 40's kept dancing in a hilarious way, kept backing into people and saying 'sorry mate im gonna stop dancing now' always followed by a shout of, 'what a tune' and starting his dance again!

We did this to a friend without the slap me part, gaffa taped him to a chair and threw him in the fire lane that passes oranges campsite DJ. It was an epic moment as he tried to wriggle away and people stopped to laugh and take pictures of him. Eventually he managed to get onto his hands and knees and crawl to safety but he looked like a human centipede gone wrong with a chair spouting out of his back.



just before we carted him away haha.

The worst I encountered was early Friday afternoon at Reading a this one lad had had far too many, a crowd had formed watching him neck cans he went to sit on his chair, missed and landed on a camping table, then when some girls tried to usher him back to his tent he tripped over a guide rope and collapsed into the grass. Then about 5 minutes later as we were walking to the arena some lad shouted to him that Biffy were on (about 4 hours before they were actually on) he started running towards the arena, got within about 5 feet of us and promptly fell flat on his face into the mud. Moral of the story, don't be pressured by groups of lads to drink more than you can.
