Festivals IIIt's that time of year again
I was at a free festival outside Worthing in the early 90s, expounds Richard mcbeef off the internet. A bloke went mental on the dancefloor and started hitting people. He was restrained, calmed down, but then did it again, a good three times more. Eventually he was pursued around the arena by an ever-growing number of people, like in Benny Hill. He was chased into a massive nettle patch and ended up tied to a chair.
Tell us your festival experiences.

My two sons set off to the V Festival separately, travelling with different groups of friends. Student son went the day before and accidentally left his ticket at my gaff.Squaddie son picked up the ticket in the off-chance of finding his frantic brother among the thousands of music fans milling around the place, and bumped into him outside the gate. They hadn't even arranged a meeting place as they'd both just arrived and didn't know the layout.
What're the chances, eh!

Quite likely (probability close to 1.0), since the paths and signs funnel people towards the gate,and student son would have been unable to pass through without a ticket, thereby guaranteeing he'd be waiting in a spot that squaddie son would have to walk past.
That is assuming, of course, there is only one gate. For X gates, the chance is around 1/X.
