Ha ha ha, aw!

Asheville has more burners in that small town than my entire state! (South Carolina)
I know, but here on the coast we seem to be very few and far between. I tried signing up for the Wilmington regional newsletter, but the e-mail bounced.

Once I figure out how long I'll be living here I may start my own regional group.

The population seemed like it used to be SF #1, LA #2, Seattle #3... but I'm not sure that's the case anymore. And there really are a hell of a lot of Oregon burners.

Saskatchewan, Canada

Very small group of burners 50-90 people. I wonder what the average percentage of Regional Attendees vs Actual Burners is??

I represent the state of chaos,

But believe everyone else is from 1/3 from the bay area, 1/3 from puget sound to central oregon, and 1/3 abroad.

just my opinion

Benicia, Ca......but was one of three random burners, in an apatment building, in Crockett, CA. Probably the highest burner per capita ever!


One, I had met just months prior@ BM...and he just happened to live in that building.

That would be cool to find out..by neighborhood. Our mailman said he'd delivered about 15 packages of tix when the first/second tier tickets were shipped. He wanted to know what the lump was, he laughed at the Fireballs, thought that was pretty cool. I know of 3 separate burners in a 2 block radius of my house. I'm guessing we're probably in one of the highest per capita neighborhoods.

Colorado, born and raised.
I don't know how many CO burners there are. Apogaea pulls a pretty good sized crowd. But I know lots of those people don't go to BRC.

But, does only being able to afford a camping trip in your back yard, and not 1200 miles away- mean you're not a burner? no, means your broke.

Does not going to BRC, even if you could cause you don't want to deal with the elements; but you are willing to go to the mountains for a few days to party cause the weather is probably gonna be really nice- mean you're not a burner? yes.

Its hard to say how many people at a four day regional are not burners.

I so totally agree! We are very fortunate that its in our backyard. In all honesty I don't know that we'd travel 1200 miles to do this.
