Germans Raise a Glass to Oktoberfest in Munich
Tip: Highlight text to annotate itX
It's that time of year again, so get out your lederhosen because Germany is celebrating
Oktoberfest.
What's dubbed as the world's biggest beer festival opened in Munich on Saturday as visitors
from all over the world got in line for a pint.
And no Octoberfest would be complete without the traditional beer tent landlord entry.
The Munich mayor kicked off the 180th Oktoberfest by tapping open the first beer keg.
"I don't need to wish us a great atmosphere because it's always great. I also don't need
to wish the beer tent landlords good business because it will be good. My most important
wish is for a peaceful Oktoberfest, without attacks and also without any excesses or accidents."
Octoberfest runs until October 6th.
