  • It was really Clocktoberfest. The name is a play-on-words with "Octoberfest", but the Yurt and other activites were centred around a place that we call Clock Park.

    On another note, the race in this episode was called the Blummer Race, it has the same "lum" sound as Plumber. It is a very long standing tradition during homecoming weekend and prizes are given out for best dressed team and most creative baton.

  • Its Oktoberfest, I love Oktoberfest. There's usually lots of beer flowing.

    Wiki - "Oktoberfest is a two-week festival held each year in Munich, Bavaria, Germany during late September and early October. It is one of the most famous events in the city and the world's largest fair, with some six million people attending every year."

  • I believe it's "Clocktoberfest" because the festival was held at the town clock.

    Good food!

  • Wow, you shoot a lot of video! Do you work with a crew, or do all of this yourself?

  • You're sure it's not "October-Fest"? I've heard of that.
