We briefly met some english backpackers last night, who had spent 2 months in LOS, before flying south. I was more interested in the horrors of their train trip from BKK



They spoke of  attending the Oktoberfest in Koh Samui 17/18 september. German food and beer and run by Rotary for charity.



With the number of Germans in Pattaya, this could be an interesting event for PGF to consider. My first thought was the soi in Jomtien that Poseiden, L"Oliviers, Stef tref and Bondi are all in.



Probably there is an Oktoberfest already for breeders, but that does not stop the gay community having one as well. Just a thought.



I have often wondered why Oktoberfest is held in September and what it celebrates besides drinking beer.

Could not find much on google for Thailand

Really liked the idea of closing soi Poseiden (?) with beer drinking and ox roast, oompah bands and Star Tref cabaret shows

You might even get one of the german beer brands to sponsor the event There must be a role for VBBB and Monty to play in all of this.



September - October 2006 tbc (Every year)



The ultimate event for fans of beer and group jollity, the Oktoberfest at the Theresienwiese draws visitors from around the globe. The event - known by the locals as the "Wies'n" after the meadow where it is held - is the biggest public festival in the world. You have to be there to believe it!



Each year, some six million visitors fill the Munich breweries' festival tents, downing roughly six million litres of beer and devouring 300,000 pork sausages, 600,000 roast chickens and 80 oxen. Try to find a tent which suits your style, as the individual tents' styles and audiences vary widely. The Anglo-Australian-American backpacker hordes and Japanese tour groups make a beeline for the Hofbräu tent, which tends to be the most raucous.



Seekers of the lively but more refined pleasures of the Bavarians (many decked out in full folk costume) should check out the Augustiner, Ochsenbraterei (ox-roasting) or Fischer-Vroni tents.

 

can we import a dozen Reeperbahn rent boys to add some color and movement ?

one who always goes right from the spa to the sausage stand: From bad to wurst.



 

Good idea, Germans are great but remember:



Don't mention the war
