Tammy, three days long and there are still years I can't find the time to make it down there!

Rob, It's a lot of fun when we make it down there, hopefully the weather will be warm but not too warm.

Larry, Outstanding food for sure!  A bit of something for everyone too since each of the restaurants offers several items.

Michael, It's probably been about 10 years since my last trip down.  I start with the intention of going, but one thing leads to another and the weekend is over before I know it.  Bill

I think that's the challenge for any festival, can you handle the crowds without losing the enjoyment?  And even if the festival organizers do the right things, the experience can be negative if the people attending don't behave.  I know they predicted over 550,000 people this weekend, perhaps more.  With the milder weather more people will probably be inclined to attend.
