Shanghai Bob

We read that 69,000 hectaliters of beer are served and consumed at the “Wiesn” during Oktoberfest. While we were still sober, I was able to calculate that that amount of beer would feed the Rheinfall for just under 15 seconds.

After four to five liters of beer it somehow seemed like a good idea to go on the amusement park rides, something that would not have occurred to me before drinking so much, and was definitely a bad idea after.

The hats are a German tribute to American marksmanship.
