It wasn’t safe to go to this event. Too many shootings, robberies, assaults, and car burglaries.

The glories of diversity writ large.

Arizona just had the Maricopa county fair and it was pretty busy. We were sad it was smaller than prechicomplague, but happy to see such an enthusiastic crowd. Wife wasn’t into any Carnaval foods so I took her to a Spanish restaurant after.

A lot of tradition/heritage is being destroyed.

“Sad. I guess no more garlic ice cream.”

Just drive up the road to The Stinking Rose.

““Clearly it was over the 10 years of just losing money was the main culprit and the main cause of what was going on with the festival and being able to be sustainable and that was the real cause that was the root cause of it,” Cline said. “”

I can see WHY he was the PAST president...

“Due to lingering uncertainties from the pandemic, along with prohibitive insurance requirements by the City of Gilroy, the Gilroy Garlic Festival Board has decided not to move ahead with a festival for 2022 and the foreseeable future,”

I think they stored my roommate’s personal goods there for a month before he received them at our new assignment. He got them delivered and opened them up and the garlic smell ran us out of the room. It was a PCS from the Defense Language Institute in Monterey, CA to Goodfellow AFB in San Angelo, Texas. Took a couple of weeks for it all to air out.

Sad. One less event to actually get people out of their homes and in the company of other human beings.

My wife and I went to it once 18 or 19 years ago. Garlic ice cream was ok, a little extra bite in the flavor from the garlic, mostly just a novelty.

Is Morgan Hill still doing their knock-off version, Mushroom Marti Gras?

Organizers say they are re-imagining the annual festival

Well, that ought to solve everything. Success is, after all, nothing more than failure re-imagined.

It was a fun event back in the day. Last time I went was back in the aughts. Still had vestiges of being a farmers event.

Large scale ‘festivals’ open to the public is pretty much dying off in the US these days, thanks to courts which don’t let the organizers exclude gang members and our repopulation program, which makes every public event look like a UN gathering.
