Comments on: How to Celebrate Oktoberfest

on 10/1/2009 Das is good stuff. Thank you!

on 9/22/2008 Goodwill is a great source for inexpensive beer steins. I pick them up all year and have quite a collection by the time I throw my party. Also, name tags with German names are fun. Also, try to find some beer banners and posters at your local liquor store. Cheap Erzgebirge-style nutcrackers are cute decorations. You can find German flags and other authentic items online. Finally, I buy bags of artificial autumn leaves at craft stores and toss them all over the floor to create an outdoors-feeling in my indoor biergarten. Wunderbar!

on 9/19/2008 It actually occurs longer than the last two weeks of September. It ends in the first week of October. One tip: if you know in advance that you and a large group of people will be going, you can reserve a table - those tents get full pretty quickly (I am talking about the one in Munich...)

on 9/19/2008 I went to Oktoberfest in Indianapolis and took my German Shepherd dog. We couldn't walk 10 feet without people stopping us to pet him.

on 9/19/2008 Nice article! I'm not a drinker, but I like German food. I like to dance too. Thanks for sharing.

on 9/19/2008 Let's celebrate!
