SATAN!
JUGGALETTES See also "ninjalettes" and "neden holes." These two won the hot-oil wrestling contest.
FOUR DAYS OF CAMPING ICP shirt, check. Hella weed, check. Hair spray, CHECK.
A GIRL'S BROWN EYE? The guys were asking all the girls, "Wanna buy a brown eye?" I didn't want to know.
BAG OF RANDOM DRUGS Plus glow sticks = no sleep.
THE DRUG BRIDGE Open 24 hours. Just like 7-Eleven. Except with weed the size of turkey legs.
THE FOOD Beat dat bitch with a turkey stick! (Or a brick, if she's Tila Tequila.)
THE SUNBURN Plus the chiggers, ticks, and mosquitoes.
THE TATS The only true way to show you're down with the clown.
MY FAVORITE NINJA "Don't wanna massage or a brown eye? Wanna sell me your tooth? How 'bout you sell me a tooth?"
THE FAM First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the Juggalo baby carriage...

Tila Tequila is a bad ass. Who the fuck stays on stage while they're being pelted with shit until they bleed?
Also: Boobs! (Fake boobs, but boobs nonetheless.)

And what was Gallagher doing there? Seriously, especially after reading about his show in Bremerton. I am totally confused about his presence at the Gathering.

Great shots kelly. Looks like they opened up to you. Were you wearing your ICP colors or were you just down with the clown?
Not an ICP fan specially if they threw rocks at Method Man.

Mr. Bashful Weed-On-a-Stick has forgotten that anybody who might happen to recognize his face will probably just recognize his tattoos instead.
10
You know, if you didn't know anything about juggalos, that black and white makeup on some of them is really beautiful. Too bad they're not wearing it to a Los Lonely Boys concert instead.
12
The food on that grill is making me ill this early in the morning.
It was also nice to read in that Vice article about the guy saving his shit in paper towels to throw at Tila Tequila. Her gigantic misshapen fake titties are also stomach-churning. And of course, Gallagher.
Kelly O, didja see Gallagher? Did he tell the one about why there's no Six Flags in Mexico City, even though there IS a Six Flags in Mexico City?

Tila's parting line here is unimprovable. From CNN (apologies if posted elsewhere):
http://www.cnn.com/2010/SHOWBIZ/celebrit…

A written statement from organizers and Insane Clown Posse called the violence "extremely unfortunate," but it said "Juggalo Gathering, LLC and Insane Clown Posse are not responsible."
"Ms. Tequila was made aware, in advance, of her unpopularity with many Juggalos at the Gathering, but she insisted on performing," the statement said.
She was paid in advance and told she could keep the money if she decided not to perform and that "she could leave the stage the minute that she felt uncomfortable," organizers said.
Tequila did say in an interview Monday that she was told just before the show that there could be violence and that she did not have to take the stage.
Video obtained by CNN showed Tequila standing her ground on stage for several minutes, continuing to perform her songs while several bodyguards tried to protect her.
"I'm not going anywhere," she shouted back.
The organizers said Tequila should have realized when "the crowd began to boo heavily and throw garbage" that "she was not welcome."
"Her injuries were only sustained because of her refusal to leave the stage," they said.
The assault subsided briefly when comedian Tom Green, who had performed earlier, diverted the crowd's attention with a dance.
After Green left the stage, a large rock soared from the crowd, striking Tequila's face. Blood streamed down her cheek.
"After several minutes, she even removed her top, exposing herself, which seemed to mock and further antagonize the crowd," the organizers said. "Finally, Gathering security pulled her off of the stage."
Tequila, in a message posted on her Twitter account Wednesday, defended taking off her top: "If your face was drippin in blood, and your shirt was smeared in human feces and piss, umm im pretty sure you would take ur dam top off too!"

I thought the juggalos were a failed mutation from the 1990's. A genetic anomaly among a species that does not increase the chance of survival and even directly impedes the specimen's ability to mate and actually live, guaranteeing the mutation is not passed on to future generations. Who the fuck intervened and allowed these people to continue nearly 20 years later? I assumed they were gone. Genetic waste flushed into the bone yards. Really? Juggalos?
And I thought republicans, libertarians, Ron Paulians, and LaRouche-ites were inbred asshats. These people are the true bellwethers of our collective downfall. The 3 headed asthmatic canary in our cultural coal mine.

oh, and what the fuck is up with their faygo soda? Clown number 1 is proudly slurping the syrup and I read in some other [stranger?] article that the juggalos love them the faygo soda. anyone have an explanation?
21
kelly o, you are a champion. i'm also curious what you were wearing this weekend. "you're a juggalo, right.." they got your detroit vibe and could tell you are down with the clown. did you go ninjette route? hot lady route? pro photographer route? what was your gameplan for surviving and getting the interviews this weekend?
23
hey tio! guess what...como chingan estos pendejos! i love 'merica! as stated previously. tila tequila, is spanish for fetal alcohol syndrome.
24
Juggalos? What a bunch of losers! The mob that was attacking people at Ft. Steilacoom Park used to party at my building in Tacoma. I don't think there was a high-school graduate in the bunch. The unfortunate single mother (gave birth at 15 and dropped out of HS) that was dating one of them got 90 days in jail for being with them.
I'd tell Tila the same thing I told my neighbor-get a better class of friends! And oh yeah, Asian girls look weird with blonde hair.

ITS ALWAYS HILARIOUS TO SEE UR BOYFRIEND DRUNK AS HELL BY THE PORTA POTTIES HAHAHA...THAT WOULD BE THE 4TH PICTURE DOWN FROM THE TOP..THATS MY 211 FROM SECTION 8!~! http://www.myspace.com/section83kut

#22 - not exclusively. Look at photo #4 in the slideshow, link at the top... the look on the guy's face on the left is pretty priceless.
#21 - ratty jeans and a centuries-old Slayer shirt. I butched it up. Didn't want too many dudes to try to sell me "brown eyes". Brandon, the writer who was with me wore my ICP shirt. I made him wear it. Without it's magical powers, he would have surely died. Or at least caught a turd. They knew we weren't actual 'Fam. Everyone knew, even guy I interviewed in the video. We also listened to tons of ICP on the way there. I think that somehow magically protected us as well.
#19 - It's made in Detroit. And it's Detroiters, ICP, Insane Clown Posse's fault THIS happens, because of THIS SONG and tons of songs like this:
Just Like That Lyrics:
Jump out of bed and I head for the grapenuts
Eat em quick or they soggy and that sucks
Trying to find a clean pair of socks and a shirt
Still sporting the same drawers even though they hurt
In the fridge, there's a Faygo, it tastes ill
Cuz it's flatter then a bitch on a big wheel
I got a few money back and a little change
So I'm heading to the store when the phone rings
"What up man, check it out, I know this bitch
She's got another friend with her and her dad's rich
If we find us a ride out to Wyandotte
Guarenteed, we can fuck em both on the spot"
Oh shit, let me call Bill Bill
I wanna let my nuts through the windmill
He ain't home, fuck, I'll call Mike Clark
Cuz I know he can get the fuckin Skylark
He said he can, but he's broke and it needs gas
But I wanna buy these Faygo, think fast
I know my brother Jump Steady's got a few bones
But that's going through his shit when he ain't home
"Nevermind J, Legs loned me a ten
No need to get punched in your head again
Tell Mike to scoop me up right away
And it's Faygo and neden hoes all day"
Fuck yeah, I throw my Pro Winds on my feet
Lock the house, and wait for em in the street
I wish I had a piece of gum or something fuck
My mouth still kind of tastes grapenuts
Here they come, nope, wasn't them
Seems like the same car's driving by again
It pulls up, "hey man, you're outta luck"
What, what ya say man
[gunshot]
Fuck

Sane people, me included, get an epic FAIL!

@3 and 4. Yes, Kelly. Where are the postive pictures? Where's Senator Juggalo, who spent his weekends collecting cans to finance his way through law school? And where Kelly is the jugglette that spends her free time teaching orphans to read after school? Where are they Kelly? Cause all you posted on a bunch of adult fatties filled with faygo and we all know that's not what the juggalos are about.
33
kelly-o, I know nothing of the juggalos and that's good by me. they look nightmarish. but these are way cool shots. congrats.

Plenty of pot-smoking gangsta-rap listening clownpainting juggalos are conservative christians.

That fourth picture perfectly illustrates the image that comes to mind when I hear the word "juggalo": white, fat, ugly, and high from huffing paint.
To quote Dean Wormer, "Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son."

How come none of the shots are from the daytime? You were there for a couple of days, and I assume this party went around the clock.
49
#45 - long story that involved a broken down rental car from the Nashville airport... it really pissed me off. I missed the Ms. Juggelette pagent and the wet t-shirt because of that stupid car
50
Kelly, that sucks!
Did you check out the camp?
This doesn't seem like a festival where I would want to sleep anywhere I couldn't lock up while I was gone! That's more of a worry about stray puke on my tent and random people having skanky drugged up (and probably unprotected) sex in my sleeping bag. OK, I would worry about people stealing my shit, too!
What was some of the more interesting stuff you saw that you didn't get photos of?

#50 - we definitely checked out the whole place, just didn't end up sleeping there. Mostly people slept during the day, early morning, since the lineup, the bands and stages, all started going around 2 pm, and went right through until 4 am.... strangest thing - to see a band hit a stage at 3 or 4 am.... Nite owlin'
The wrestling stage was the wildest - I wish I could have gotten more pictures of that crazy mess... Terry Funk, Booker T, Hacksaw Jim Duggan...
Some drunk guy hinted at the idea that he would like to steal my camera while I was watching a match - so I left. Kinda scary. The wrestling fans were pumped, and pretty agro
I wish I had gotten more pictures of the bands too. ICP played late Sunday night. I was already on a plane home, sadly.

Thank you thank you Kelly O!!! ICP and their die hard fan base have always been fascinating to me for it is pure magic when such a huge group of people can be so passionate about something and find togetherness and love in a world that is so fuckin crazy. Though I have never worn the face paint or attended a concert of ICP, and frankly clowns have always freaked me out...I am proud to say im down with the clown. And for those who just dont get it, well that just sux for you.
53
I am someone who is a juggalett we might be creeps, crazy people, and "gross" to you. But we are more family then your own families are. No matter what we would go to bat for a person in our family no matter what, even if we only knew them for 2 seconds. The gathering is about getting together to celebrating love for each other, our homies and future homies. Ya we do drugs. But so have you at one point. We love to have a good time, just on them is alot more fun. haha. And yes we like to get naked we aren't ashamed to show what we naturaly ALL have. We DGAF what you think about us. We are going to do what we do weather we have your approvable or not. We are who we are. Kelly great shots! I hope you had fun! We are some fun ass people to be around! WHOOP WHOOP CLOWN LOVE! big titty bitches need love to!
Sincerly,
DGAF

I can't help but wonder how you only managed to get only 3 or 4 people of color in your near 50 photos when the Gathering was at least 20%, but probably upwards to 30% people of color.
