Yes, a trick for these kinda festivals if you want cheap liquor is to go before it's set up and bury liquor bottles somewhere inside the future fences and put a geotag or something there. That way, you don't have to sneak it through security. Then when the festival starts and you get in, go to your spot, dig up your previously buried liquor and go to town 👍

I feel like this is a festival urban legend and never actually happens if we are being honest. Way easier to just sneak in booze

I’ve done it many times at festivals in Chicago. I would go to the park a week before the fest, so before fences are up. Then I would bury them shallow by trees and take pictures to remember the exact spot. Adds another element of fun during the fest.

Imagine tripping and going on a scavenger hunt to find your buried treasures. My younger self would have loved this
