Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

UrbanDaddy is selling $70 VIP passes to the “Parked” Food Truck Festival, which is kind of expensive considering that entrance is FREE to the public. Also keep in mind that you typically don’t spend more than $10 on food trucks.Of course, there are some “perks” involved with this Perk. You get to cut the lines from 5pm-7pm. You get ten small-bites from ten trucks. And you get six drinks from the beer and champagne tent.
Each pass is good for one person only.
So ask yourself this, Daddy: When was the last time you and your girlfriend spent $140 on “food truck date night?” Never happened. Or perhaps you can tell us about that one time you and a friend pounded six drinks each while walking around in the brutal summer sun.
You don’t remember that, do you? It ended pretty poorly.
Sorry bros, we’re calling this one a BAD DEAL. If you want to hit the Parked event, swing by earlier on, wait in line a bit, and you’ll spend less and drink less than these UrbanDaddy fools. Then do your $140 date night afterwards, because food trucks aren’t for dates.
