A large supermarket chain called REWE has a one day event where you can spend 50 cents and spin a wheel, toss Velcro darts, unwrap a bit off rolled up paper, etc - all to see if you win some junk prizes like ice-cube trays, hand-bags, etc.
There was also a music stage, a kids ride, children games, etc.
But the main thing that attracted such a large horde was the booths where they were selling typical supermarket products like bags of potato chips, ice tea bottles, bread loaves, etc - for less than half price and believe me people were loading up.
Most people were definitely white trash and there were some ugly scenes including a large woman threatening to punch a man "in his Fing mouth he spoke one more word" - and that was 10 feet from 2 policemen who raised their hands like in surrender and told people to calm down.
The ques were so long for food that we stood in separate lines and then caught up with each other asking what was scored. I even put my seven year old kid in a few lines. I brought our shopping cart, with a bag on top and my wife carried light stuff.
A lot of booths ran out of stuff suspiciously early, like the potato chips. We didn't get any of those but many people were walking around with 10 bags.
I was on the Milka (chocolate and cookies) line, which was the longest and the guy in front of me asked if I could hold his place in line. I answered no problem but he still stuck his face right up to mine to make serious eye contact and I had to assure him again I would hold his place. He then came back with a beer and thanked me. On another line my daughter was playing with the boy in front of of and his mother told me she was recently at this event held in Hamburg and started telling me about it, like I should care.
The amusement ride was free and my daughter went on at least 6 times:

We had a very good time - loaded-up and read for The White Trash Apocalypse!
