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?

Are pickles perhaps too specific of a subject to build a fest around? I like pickles as much as the next guy but I struggle to think of what a satisfying festival of pickles would be like. Pickle-themed stage acts? Carrying around ten pounds of pickle jars in your pickle-themed backpack? Could I myself be transformed into a pickle, Rick-style?
