The 6 Types Of People You Will See At Summerfest

Summerfest, held in Milwaukee, Wi every summer, is known to be the world’s largest music festival. However, if you spend enough time there you’ll realize that it is also the world’s largest people-watching arena. After spending enough time there after 8 pm, you’ll also realize it can be the world’s largest shit show. Below are the six types of people you are guaranteed to see at this festival/people-watching arena/shit show.

1. The Basic Bitch

Distressed denim shorts, crop top, white converse and flash-lensed aviators are the staples of this gal’s Summerfest wardrobe. If you ask her what she’s seeing, her answer will be whatever her friends are going to. Although she acts and talks way more drunk than she actually is, this early teen will know at least two songs to whatever artist (probably a DJ) she's seeing and she’s down to have fun.

2. The Creep Standing Alone Within the Most Crowded Part of the Grounds

I never understand how this guys gets in, but I guess when there’s a will there’s a way. One would typically associate the word “idiot” with this cardboard and Sharpie dreamer; however, I have to give him some credit. He came to the right place. I can bet you there were plenty of drunk enough people willing to give him a hug (for free!). You'll also find yourself passing him like five times during the day/night. He just never seems to go away (or give up).

3. The Basic "Bro"

He walks in a pack with other wearers of bro tanks, pastel colored shorts and Ray-Ban sunglasses. His confidence streams directly from his overly-toned arms, and you constantly see him checking to make sure he's flexing as he hold that plastic cup of beer in his hand. Although he knows how to dress for the fest, he really has no genuine knowledge or interest music. You’ll find him at Timeflies because “bitches love Timeflies.”

4. The Chill 40-Year-Old Couple

These beer-lovers are definitely on the older spectrum of your typical festin’ crowd, but everyone knows they're there to have a night-off from parenting with zero judgements of others so they can still get away with going to Walk the Moon. Outfits are never their strong suit, but everyone can tell that they just want to drink their beer and have a good time, similar to most young adults attending this music festival. Normally, teens would consider the presence of actual adults an annoyance, but no one’s going to turn down a possible shot at free beer. Not to mention that this couple gives zero shits and totally won’t be afraid to shout “back the f*ck up” at the naive 16-year-old boy pushing through the crowd to get to his “friend” who is supposedly in the front row.

5. The Adorable Old Couple That Probably Shouldn’t Be There But You Awe At Their Cuteness Anyway

Although the 70 and up crowd is incredibly cute, you have to wonder why they decided to go anywhere near the Miller Lite Oasis past 9 pm. But hey, it’s Summerfest! If there’s anytime to stop working on the 500-piece cat puzzle and stay a couple hours up past their bedtime, it’s now. All one can do is just hope no one spills beer on this precious, fragile couple whose love for slow dancing and music prevails through even the biggest of shit shows.


6. The Perfectly Trendy Festival Regular

She’s either rich enough to afford all things Urban or her thrifting game is on fleek, because her outfits are ridiculously mismatching but put together. She knows every word to every hidden-gem band at the festival that you wish you already knew about, and you just want to hate her and her flat-as-a-board abs. But you don’t, because she’s so freaking cool and you kind of want to befriend her and find out where she gets all of her clothes. This trendy festival reg will make you spend the entire concert wondering if you could pull off any of the outfits she owns and how she gets her hair to obtain that perfect straight-wavy balance.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
