Louisville Visual Art, Louisville

The Groupon ruined The Bacon Ball... I had been the previous year and thought it was so fun I went back again this time with more friends but the event was over crowded and there wasn't enough food. The year before people were dressed all classy & this year it was a jeans and tennis shoes event... My boyfriend & I argued as soon as we arrived b/c he didn't want to stand in any of those long lines... Many vendors had already ran out of food before we got there... Horrible Experience & I blame it all on the Groupon. The venue was lovely!

Really crowded, probably due to selling groupons..event was.not organized for the crowd they had. Staff were very friendly, but overwhelmed. They should have stopped selling tickets early on.

Seemed really disorganized. Long lines and not enough food for the people who waited at the end. People started jumping in line because there wasn't a system. Poorly executed overall and that seemed to be the sentiment of most people we talked to.

Crowd control is a major must with any festival. Last year at the water tower, while busy, was at least tolerable. This year it was complete chaos. I really hope that next year will be worth going back.
