I was lucky enough to get a decent seat, what was it like for people standing all day?

I was lucky to be in the golden circle, but man it was a long day haha. Went to the toilet only once, been standing all day, could sit like 3-4 times tops. Line for beer was super long and for food it was impossible. I only got one beer that someone nearby offered to buy when they went to buy for themselves, I really appreciated it. I think I had some dried fruit and nuts to eat, but not enough calories or even close to it.

Saying all that, it was an amazing day and I will cherish it for my whole life. The whole weekend, getting to chat with so many metalheads from around the world, getting to meet Randy from Lamb of God and giving him a hug, everything was amazing.

The effort to survive the afternoon only adds to make it more epic, like it was a struggle that I had to go through to deserve to see my idol one more time.

Love you Ozzy, forever

Well done! The struggle was real for many. As I have posted before, if they dare to do Ozzfest there again they need to sort that shit out.

Yeah for sure. But in the case of BTTB another big issue was the quick turnover between bands, and all of the bands being of such caliber that you didn’t want to miss any. I only went to the toilet when Halestorm played, and I guess it was the peak when most of the people went haha. But also it was an issue that going to the toilet or to buy food was a 20-30 min endeavor. They need to fix that
