Day 2 the concerts started. We got to see Jerrod Neimann, The Charlie Daniels Band, Blake Shelton, & Brad Paisley. Well everyone else got to see Brad Paisley. It had been extremely hot that day as well as the day before so we didn't really drink a ton or do a whole lot. In between The Charlie Daniels Band & Blake Shelton we had the brilliant idea of taking shots. I, being dumb, tried to match my one friend shot for shot. I made it almost entirely through Blake Shelton before feeling the urge to throw up. Luckily there was a recycling bag in front of my chair because I managed to be present but completely miss Brad Paisley. I also have amazing friends who took pictures of the concert while I sat there with my new friend the bag.
Day 3 I surprisingly was the only one who woke up feeling good. Since it was once again insanely hot out we headed in to town to go to the beach to bathe & hang out. It was so much nicer at the beach. There were tiny little fish that kept swarming though so we didn't last long in the water. That night we got to see Sunny Sweeney, Willie Nelson, Lynyrd Skynrd, & Sugarland. Willie Nelson sucks by the way. It was cool to see a legend but we ended up walking out. He doesn't really sing, he talks, if you can even call it that. It's more mumbling. Maybe he was high? That was also the night that our terrible neighbors (well 1 was cool) stole 2 bottles of our booze. We still don't actually have proof that they did it but a random person would have taken ALL of the bottles if not the whole cooler. That night our one cool neighbor also had us dying of laughter by telling the most drawn out story and singing us a lullaby. I really wish I hadn't been laughing so hard so I could have grabbed my camera to record his story & song.
Day 4 was by far the best day of them all. We got up and went into town for this amazing, and cheap, breakfast buffet. For $5 we got biscuits and gravy, sausage, and french toast...unlimited! After we had our fill we headed back to the Soo Pass Ranch. We headed to the concert bowl early so that we could put our seats right up against the fence because we were all most excited to see Miranda Lambert that night & we wanted to be as close as possible. Well we ended up even closer than we ever could have imagined. While were killing time we walked around, bought some souviner shirts, & did a paper canoe race. We also entered a contest to be upgraded to VIP seats, twice. Froggy 99 did a drawing 3 times a day all 3 days. We thought that you got 7 tickets (which is extremely ridiculous if you think about it) but really you got 2. The very last drawing of the weekend my friend Sonja won! The only problem? There were 4 of us. So we stuck it to the man. Instead of sealing our wristbands we held them on with bandaids so that everyone could enjoy the show from up close. By close I mean 8th row. Those are $1000 seats people. I only paid 1/10th of that for my GA ticket. Sonja & I went first to watch the 1st half of Miranda Lambert & then the other 2 watched the last half of Miranda & the 1st half of Rascal Flatts. We then switched again & we got to watch the last half of Rascal Flatts. We also saw Rocket Club, Easton Corbin & Darius Rucker that night but were in GA for those.
Day 5 we packed up our stuff and headed for home. When we got home we noticed that after we had moved all of our stuff from when the booze was stolen the first time, another bottle had been stolen. It was definitely the neighbors. Probably the evil, clingy, bitchy girlfriend neighbor on a vendetta. Whatever, the night before made everything that went wrong, completely right.
