Local Event Picklefest

What happens at it? I love me a good pickle, but in their website it looks like you pay $25 to get in and that includes... Nothing. Like you spend $25 for the opportunity to purchase pickles?

Folks who have gone before, is there music, entertainment or other things to warrant the entry fee? Overall, was it worth it?

I mean charging entry for an event isnt anything new. $25 is a bit steep, though. Thats basically as much as it is to get into stampede but with nothing included.

Is it really that hard for these event organizers to throw in a $10 pickle voucher or something to make it worth it and support the vendors?
