MetaKate Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 My favorite one came from a group of lads (aged 20-22) camped next to us. There was a couple of them sat outside their tent early one morning and one says to the other very solemnly "Have you ever thought about giving up smoking to stay alive for the people who love you?"

verrymerry Posted June 29, 2017 Report Share Posted June 29, 2017 It wasn't so much funny, but three girls walked past me and one of them said to her friends, "I knew it was big, I just didn't know it was THIS big!" I think that probably sums up most of our first experiences of Glastonbury (unless you've been coming for 20/30 years!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some pastor from Boston in US telling of how he came to glasto as it was his first. Said he had been travelling Europe and was staying in a vicarage in Glastonbury and the vicars were all going to Glastonbury and had a spare ticket which he went with so there was a group of local vicars and a travelling pastor all camped together on pennard hill. Haha I don't suppose this travelling pastor mentioned he'd been living in the South of Spain recently had he? I went to a funeral there last year and it was conducted by a travelling pastor from Boston. We spoke for about 10 minutes about Glastonbury. If he took my advice and came it would be very funny!

I'm not even joking i'm sure he said he did. Said he was somewhere else in europe and said he was going by that area of the country and someone recommended it to him which he then mentioned to the vicar he was staying with lol.

I want this to be a beautiful twist of fate so much. Either way im sure the pastor has a few stories to share on his return about how amazing people can be whether religious or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's got to be the guy. I'm sure he does, it's given me a story to tell to people who haven't been as well on how Glastonbury truly is the festival for anyone and everyone.

Slugworth Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 I see two pastors, one in green and one in blue. I'm pretty sure it wasn't fancy dress. Wonder if they were a part of the group? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitting stoned while listening from a longdrop is one of Glastonbury's unique pleasures. Edit - that's listening to someone on stage, not to other longdroppers. That would be odd.

Homer Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 On Sat morning about 9am, getting some brekkie near the Green Fields. Lots of shouting from a group, led mainly by a bloke dressed as some sort of 'warrior' with posing pouch, gladiator face mask and leather boot (other leg was prosthetic from the knee down). Assumed it was good natured and ignored. As half of them walked off, a girl with the gladiator guy shouted back 'he's a cripple and a retard and you want to have a fight with him?!' The gladiator guy seemed to be totally off his head from the night before and was gesticulating a lot too, Not sure what was going on there.
