The dirtier they are, the more cred you deserve.

10. Running into someone you barely know and trying to figure out if you're stuck with them for the rest of the day.

Turns out, you don't have all that much in common.

11. Meeting your festival soulmate, but then losing them in the crowd.

OK, maybe not "soulmate," but they were really cute and liked the same music... so that's pretty close.

12. Never wanting it to end.

Keep that festival feeling alive all year long.
