James Madison's Springfest

All I can say is, everyone in college needs to experience partying to this magnitude. If you go to a college like Mason, which doesn't have parties that often on campus, atleast once out of the 4 or 5 years in college, you need to go to James Madison for Springfest. Springfest is a weekend long event that goes on at James Madison once year and it usually happens shortly after the start of spring when the weather starts to warm up. Just picture thousands upon thousands of partiers from JMU, Mason, West Virginia, Virginia Tech, Old Dominion, etc all in the city of Harrisonburg for this event. It is basically tons of alcohol and drunk college students flooding the streets from Friday afternoon till Sunday, nonstop! This year was the biggest that Madison ever had, it made CNN news. There were riots against the police, the SWAT team shut down a whole apartment complex and blocked off roads by throwing tear gas at thousands of people, there were Helicopters hovering over the party....imean it was the craziest thing i have ever seen. All I can say, JMU knows how to party!
