Every year Comfest weekend proves to be a great time for thousands of Columbus residents as well as those who travel from all over Ohio to attend the festival.</p><p>I myself am a Comfest veteran, attending almost every year since 1990 when I was just a youngster, roaming Goodale Park with my brother trying to fit in with the teenagers playing Frisbee. It was interesting to sit back and take in the festival and see how much it has grown over the past years. For most, Comfest is not just about the bands playing or the hand blown glass pipes being sold, its about meeting new and interesting people, and partying hard with the ones that you already know. Saturday at the 2006 Community Festival was no exception, and contained the largest crowd that I have ever seen at the event in past years. </blockquote></p><p><a href="http://uweekly.com/story.php?iidart=3188">READ MORE</a></p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/comfest-2006-june-23-24-25/page/2#post-165024 Tue, 27 Jun 2006 03:43:35 +0000 Ver-snatchie 165024@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p><img src="http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a334/clubversace/DSC04814.jpg"></p><p><img src="http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a334/clubversace/DSC04853.jpg"></p><p><img src="http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a334/clubversace/DSC04868-1.jpg"></p><p>I find myslef forgeting about comfest...you know like spiking my own drinks </p><p>I had a cook out on sat..thought it would be a nice break between the parade and comfest ...</p><p>YOU SELL THOSE HOMES LEZBO....</p><p>it was perfect i had a Bob hooking it up as the grill master ...</p><p>and living next to the north market peeps were going back and forth getting salon burgers and hummis </p><p>party was the shit..toped it off with shots then off to black out at comfest..damn those huge mugs...they hold ALOT of liqure </p><p><img src="http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a334/clubversace/DSC04828.jpg"></p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/comfest-2006-june-23-24-25/page/2#post-165023 Mon, 26 Jun 2006 07:45:56 +0000 Ndcent 165023@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p><blockquote><cite>Columbusite wrote </cite>A teenager got shot on the last night of Latino Fest.
