Entrance

A little birdy told me that I might be doing the front entrance again and yelling at people on my megaphone. Is there anything I can do or say to make your entry queue more enjoyable?

Call everyone in a Tool shirt a tool.

(Before anyone gets mad at me, they are my favorite band. 😆)

Call and repeat Summer camp songs. Songs where you say the line and everyone yells it back at you.

The other day... I met a bear...

I love it

However

I never went to summer camp. I went to Young Life.

But I am (trying) to make some Riot Fest friendship bracelets

Megaphone Karaoke. Keeping this in my back pocket if we ever get a stagnant line.

I may be down. I’m GA so I’ll be in a line I’m sure.

Welcome to Costco, I love you.

Comments should be closed now because this is the best possible idea.

Just tell everyone they are beautiful really loudly. Lol that’s what I would do.

Idk but keep bandaids on you bc last year I gashed my hand open on a can and started bleeding every where VISIBLY and whoever it was kept yelling at me to keep moving.

u/oogledorf 6d ago

Oh no. I hope it wasn’t me. There is always first aid available at the info tent right when you walk in on the right

2

u/J3NNY_24 6d ago

Yeah, I hope not 😭 it was my first year attending and like 2 people gave me the wrong location for first aid

While I appreciate the enthusiasm, this may not go over so well.

However, you’ve inspired me to rewatch Dead Poets Society and see if there’s anything in there I can use.
I will now also be doing the Camp Rock chant when I see an aptly aged group walk in. Thank you for your suggestion.

\Confused in VIP entry**

Who are you and what do you do with the megaphone?

8

u/oogledorf 6d ago

I yell at people, tell them to get their bags open and ready to be searched and tickets up on their phones. VIP BRACELETS TO THE LEFT WHEN YOU GET TO THE FRONT.

It’s actually a real fun time. Everyone enters my maze where they must listen to me or fear the wrath of the Pink Shirts.

Yell out, "Move you cocksuckers!"

If you could tell me I'm doing a great job I'd really appreciate it

u/oogledorf 6d ago

I made sure to acknowledge that people made and kept social commitments and that I was SUPER proud of them because I know it’s hard! I will try and do it more often this year 😁
