I've been wondering lately about how and when all the TP pre fest shenanigans came about? Which ones that are still a thing are the oldest traditions? Who started them? What events are no longer produced? In your personal opinion what event current or past was the best ever?
I would probably have to say that the longest streak would have to be rumballs and tropical Tuesday, with Bloody Mary Monday the next runner up.
Run-a-muck's oyster feed died out after Jerry moved away from the Bay Area, and the Smuggler's Birthday Bash died a horrible death at the hands of the staff there.
The beer tasting has been an up and down event that has happily seen an uptick recently.
The pot-luck at Camp Billy has been going on for some time as well, but the Free Box Fashion Show just sort of fizzled out. A lot of fun times were had there.
Clarissa's slide show used to be a popular event as well, but she hasn't been in quite a while.
I think I'd have to say, the biggest and best event we ever had was feeding the entire Town Park campground Eggs Benedict one year. An event yet to be topped.
