I was told by several people that one thing I just had to do while I was here was go to the Cantaloupe Festival. I was a little unsure of how that could be fun but everyone told me, "You just get drunk and it's a lot of fun." That seems to be a common theme around here.
Well the festival was yesterday and I shelled out $33 to go... all you can eat, all you can drink. Yesterday also happened to be the hottest day of the year. I was smart enough to spend the entire day hydrating to prepare for the heat but I failed to make sure I had food at my house when I woke up feeling like crap the next day.
Unfortunately, the event was sponsored by Miller Lite but I drank my fair share anyways. I didn't eat any cantaloupe though. In fact, the festival had very little to do with cantaloupe.
So I experienced my first 'lope fest. Next thing on my list of things to do before I leave South Boston is to go to a race. I never thought I'd say that...
