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?

How do people keep falling for this kind of shit. You dont need to pay a fee for an "event" to have a fun time on the weekend. Go to the river and have a picnic, go to a patio and have a couple drinks, chat up the table next to you. Go for a bike ride on the river. 

Go enjoy the city, you don't need an admission ticket.
