Friday, Heather, Logan, and I headed out to the Tulsa Oktoberfest. I had run a race the night before and as part of my entry fee I got a one liter stein. And you know something those steins don’t fill themselves. I had to take it Oktoberfest so it could realize it’s inner “steinness.” If you don’t know what that means then buy my upcoming book “The Inner Life of Beer” and learn all about it.
Logan is rocking his new Oktoberfest cap and pin. I think he looks great.
Logan and Heather make a great couple. I have no idea where he is looking.
Oktoberfest has really upped its game with its beer. It used to be pretty lame but they now have a wide selection of both foreign and domestics, Warsteiner, Boulevard, Marshall Brewing, Paulaner, in addition to the crappy market leading domestics. They had a pretty good variety of food also, bratwurst, sausages, schnitzel and the rest along with typical fair food.
The people watching was world class with lots of people wearing chicken hats.
And one guy that looked like a hipster Hasidic guy. Hey, you know, the devout have to have beer also. Notice his stein. We also had some people right out of Breaking Bad.
Lots of dancing going on to German music. My favorite is the cross generational type dancing.
I think that a smooth and mellow time was had by all. We kind of ran out of gas and left before Heather could do her chicken dance, but hey we’ll double up on it next year!!
Great fun, loved all the photos, especially of you and your sweet family.
HUGE stein you have there. The chicken hats are interesting but I admit I prefer the hat Logan was wearing.
Cripes!
You need a hook on that belt to carrying your empty stein. Oh sorry, I stand corrected. I probably wasn’t empty for long. That is quite a ‘prize’ for running a race.
I was kind of proud of my stein. It will make a great ice tea glass next summer.
Oh, my – you guys were having way too much fun! Look at your stein compared to Heather’s small cup. Obviously moderation was not on your mind! (But, in your defense, you did run the night before…)
Well Barb, where do you think Heather was getting her small cup refilled!
You guys are so much fun! What an outing. Thanks for taking us there!
Looks like a fun time!
So your stein is about twice the size of Heather’s glass, hmmmm. I like Logan’s hat much better than the chicken hats.
