Bacon festival runs out of bacon — you can guess how this ends

Bacon fans in Dayton, Ohio, experienced a full spectrum of emotions this week (joy, disbelief, sorrow, anger ...) when an extra 15,000 people showed up to Bacon Fest. Sixteen restaurants participated in the event, each preparing special bacon-centric dishes such as grilled bacon, peanut butter and banana sandwiches. The problem: Most vendors sold out much earlier than expected, meaning it eventually became a baconless bacon festival. Attendees vented their frustration online: "Whoever ran/organized this atrocious piece of garbage should be fired and probably imprisoned," wrote one former fan. People really like bacon.

It was in Ohio, you can't expect much.

Is BaBo okay?!?!?

^^^ i was wondering the same thing!

I'm from Ohio, and this makes me sad. But if I'd flown back to Ohio for this event and didn't get my fill of bacon, I'd be knocking skulls together.

I'm originally from Ohio too. You were the first person I thought of when I read this - I was wondering if you had heard about it. A similar event happened here in SC at the local zoo - they sponsored a Brew at the Zoo and ran out of beer.

I would have started clubbing baby seals until someone got more beer

Almost sounds like a normal weekend for you....

the sreets of Milw. have fewer baby seals so something must be going right
