San Miguel Oktoberfest 2008! (1 of 2)
Was really glad they decided open this year’s Oktoberfest just in front of where I work.
We got in early and was able to go around and take photos before it got really crazy inside. Everybody was in a festive mood. People were drinking their favorite brand of San Miguel. Almost the whole stretch of San Miguel Avenue was converted to a bar!
(Hover on the photos for captions)
Good thing they thought of selling tickets because the venue wasn’t enough to accommodate everybody. In fact, there were still lots of people outside trying to get in. Around 9pm, the venue was already packed with people you can hardly walk so they closed the gates and told us they’d open again at 12mn. Would you believe it took me 30 minutes to get out?












As usual, great photos! :)

I love the pictures with the road signs. Kitang kita na talagang na-shut down ang road for this event. :)
