... forced to clean up leaves (Oktoberfest @ Duke, 2003)
Oktoberfest this year was pretty good, although it started a bit too late in the day. I think a lot of the merchants lost money because lunchtime is usually the busiest time at these events. But, the beautiful weather, live bands, lots of food and games... you really can't go wrong with that! The beer didn't come until 4pm though. I don't know why they can't let us start getting drunk in the morning...
vijay actin' cool, bollywood-style! (Oktoberfest @ Duke, 2003)
I have to admit, Duke has been doing a pretty good job in the past couple years bringing not just Oktoberfest and Springternational, but just a lot of random outdoor events on Friday afternoons... Its such a great feeling walking out from the depths of Hudson Hall onto the Chapel quad to be greeted by street vendors, cool music, and as lame as strongman and the sumo-wrestle suits are, its always entertaining to watch :)
