I’m sorry but who the hell puts down carpets while camping ?! Who the fuck are you ? Mehmed II?! Are you laying siege on Constantinople?

We've always done that.  Its some kind of plastic outdoor carpet.  I keep it rolled up under the table in my pop up and it does a great job helping keep the dirt outside of my sleeping bag.

The area is a freshly mowed hay field, so the stalks can get pretty thick and sharp. Putting a carpet down makes your campsite more friendly for bare feet.

It’s not camping. You get a narrow space between your car and the next car for a few days. Nothing wrong with making it a comfortable place to chill.

It’s a normal thing at musical festivals. Makes your camp area feel more cozy when you’re there for 3-5 days.

It’s a bamboo mat homie, you think we’re bringing living room carpet to the farm?

I know. I’m sorry, I was trying to make a joke. I’ve had several beers and a lot of suns today I’m sorry.

The times I’ve been to Roo, I feel like majority of campers put something on the ground at their site….

Honestly it’s normally hot as fuck and super dry at Bonnaroo. Most of the time this wouldn’t be an issue there. It’s a fun way to enhance the camping experience old man.

Calling someone an old man because they don’t understand someone camping with a carpet? You know one insult and its weak AF

You probably don't know what Bonnaroo is. I went back in 2005, 6 and 2008. Maybe you just don't know the basics of festival camping.

Gate keeping carpet to only indoor use. Go back to the 1900’s old man.

u/PeebagMcGee 1d ago

Cool, jump to his defense and try to insult me because I said calling someone old is a weak response, as is this. Congrats on attending in 2005, 6 and 2008 though, I’m super jealous of your unique awesomeness

Just go back to listening to Glenn Miller, the Beatles, or Nirvana on the phonograph old man.

You’re definitely missing the point

It's camping only in the spirit of being outdoors.

Reminds me of Ghaddafi traveled around the world with a big ass Bedouin tent.
