PholkTales: Odd Phans
This was a bad trip... While Phish was playing their 7 hour set of music on New Year's, my friends and I were dropping hits like nothing. I have no idea what time it was, and i can't remember which songs were playing during this episode, but I know it was really dark out and there were people everywhere.

We were sitting behind the taper's section just jamming to the music. I heard this screaming girl somewhere behind me. A few moments later this dark-haired girl came running through the crowd. She was having a bad trip. She had taken her pants & underwear off and she was running up to people, pleading with them, saying "F*** me, f*** me, f*** me..." I was pretty freaked out, but ignored her as much as I could.

My friends and I were sitting down in a circle at this point, just chilling. The half-naked girl was tumbling all over the place. She flipped, fell on the ground, and rolled into my back. She hit me really hard. I was stunned for a moment, but I just tried to keep the good vibes going. She ran around some more and then ran up to my friend Jared. She looked him in the face, screaming at the top of her lungs, "F*** me!" and grabbed his hair in her fist. Some people helped to pull her off, but he was freaked out. He looked at me and goes, "Man, that was really scary!"

She continued on for a while; she was really bumming me out. Then out of nowhere, she goes tumbling into this taper's mike stand, grabbing the guy sitting on the milk crate. The mike stand fell straight down and whacked me on the head. Me! Out of 70,000 people, this girl has repeatedly clubbed me, in the back and on my head! I was tripping balls and couldn't really grasp what was going on. My boyfriend was like, "Oh my God! Are you okay?," embarrasing the shit out of me. We all stood up and moved, quickly.

We walked way to the left side of the stage, hoping to avoid the catastrophic situation. I remember listening to a few more songs and hearing that girl scream in the crowd the whole time. Then her screams got closer. She was really scaring me, to this point of totally wanting to leave the music. Then, as the sky began to lighten, these two brave security guards drove their way into the crowd and found the psychotic girl.

They carried her off - pantless, kicking, and screaming. People all around sort of cheered for them. At least as much as a tired, tripping crowd can. I wondered all the rest of that day what the hell happened to her. I wondered if someone really had stuck their dick in her (sorry to be so blunt), if she would have shut up. I wondered if she ever got back into her right mind, ever. And to this day, I still wonder what the hell happened to that girl.

Editor's Note: What is it about festivals that urges fans to go the naked route?  I sure as hell don't know, but maybe this guy does
