Oktoberfest: where to pee

This blog has been getting an amusingly high number of hits this week from people googling phrases such as “where to pee Oktoberfest” (second only to those searching for “Oktoberfest sex”). Don’t let your fear of inadequate toilets keep you away, folks: there are plenty of places to pee at Oktoberfest. Naturally, you’re going to have to get rid of those liters of beer sooner or later, so all of the big tents are equipped with large restrooms. There’s often a line for the ladies’ room, so bring a friend along to chat with while you wait. Bring a pocket pack of tissues, too.

And if you’re not inside a tent when nature calls, look for one of the toilet cupids to point the way to the nearest facilities:

Again, sometimes you’ll find a queue, but since there’s always a tip-appreciating bathroom attendant around, the stalls tend to be cleaner than one might expect to find at a giant beer festival. But if these still don’t meet all your needs, perhaps you’ll want to consider acquiring a Stadium Pal.

  1. I so want to go to the Oktoberfest! It’s not even that far from me.. But we had the Friuli Doc in Udine this past weekend… Not huge like that, but something close… Just we don’t have beer but wine, and we have lots of food… especially the Frico… 🙂

  2. So unfair to post that clip of David Sedaris, thereby making the woman recovering from major surgery laugh so hard that her tummy really, really hurt! Next time post a warning or something!

  3. @Irma – You should check it out one of these days! Although I have to warn you, there’s nothing nearly as delicious as frico to be found here.

    @GL – I should add a disclaimer: I take no responsibility for injuries sustained via uncontrollable laughter caused by David Sedaris. Consume him at your own risk. And I hope your tummy feels better soon!
