1/2/03 - 1/5/03 - Hampton, Virginia - The Bible-belt of America 3 Days of Phish @ the infamous Hampton Colisieum!!!!! AHHH!!!!! It was a 10 hour drive from NYC to Hampton, Virginia... maily due to hours of traffic in stupid New Jersey shithole, and it was POURING down rain for hours.. Whatever though we made it, the stupid thing about Hampton is... No beer sales after midnight!!! which is soooo lame. Anyways though, Hampton definitely rocked.. All the Phish shows were fun as hell, We arrived in the lot right at 3 the first night so I could get my Pollack poster. When they finally let people in at 6, it was a stampede of chaos!! The security people got trampled so fast they couldn't pat anybody down, the lady who tried to scan my ticket, couldn't do it.. so I just took off running past her, at the merchandise booth people were trying to overturn the tables trying to get a poster.. I finally got mine and it was 135/750. After the show in the lot, i was offered a $600 glasspipe, but I don't smoke so I turned it down.. this was an amazing piece though, it was a work of art.. We saw Col. Bruce after the Phish show for the after party, and then went to the waffle house to get our hasbrowns "smothered, covered, and scrambled." Finally I'd like to give special thanks to our roommates next door at the Holiday Inn, for keeping me sane and letting me party with them til 8 in the morning. I don't think I'll ever be able to forget the swimmig pool incident, "Internet Nate" from the hotel lobby, dave matthews, and just hanging outside drinking. So Ryan, JR, Mark, etc.etc it was great to meet all you guys and hope to hang out with you guys again!
