Ok as a lesbian I just want to say that this is not a Lollapalooza specific thing, this kind of thing is not uncommon.
i know! It's so disrespectful that these places get so much attention, but there are so many! Let's list all the places that gather this outrageous attention!
Well typically it's a performance for other lesbians not straight guys so if you're in the scene you'll find out...
Did you just assume my gender? cause... what gave it away? Was it the blatant disrespect for anything other than my own needs?
Is it lesbian mud wrestling or is it sparkling same-sex sexy grappling? Trying to figure out if WWE is gay platform wrestling by the same definitions
I know a lot of gay pro wrestling fans.
In sumo, Ichiyamamoto literally has a life sized poster of Wakatakakage in his bedroom (they're the same age).
Wait are you saying lesbians as a whole will just see a pile of mud and have a intrinsic urge to wrassle?
I prefer being beaten with a stick by a beautiful girl, personally, but yes, many lesbian flirtation displays involve relatively stupid relatively low stakes violence.
Just like many straight courtship displays.
Yeah the stupid, silly, and more adventurous flirtation is usually in certain types of space, but when I see it happening I feel so at home. Two girls making eyes at each other over a stupid feat of strength or toughness or whatever else gets me to let my guard down
I mean kinda yeah at least enough of us do
It seems like a normal Lollapalooza thing tbh, I had no idea it wasn't!
Im glad were still doing fun things
Alternate link that doesn't make me visit insta or tiktok, please?
Fine I found this
the world is healing ❤️
How is this news? Isn’t this a normal, scheduled event at lollapalooza? I haven’t been in a very long time, but… Isn’t this normal?
Iirc, there’s a whole schedule of mud wrestling events
If the news can run "story about a struggling individual or animal overcoming odds through community support or sheer will, like the sickly squirrel nursed back to health by a man trapped in a collapsed cave."... For the thousandth time...
Let's just say I would rather watch this every year
Yeah, well, I will admit that “lesbians mud wrestling“ is a fucking ton of fun to watch
Lollapalooza or not
Comparing lesbian mud wrestling to a sickly squirrel is a bit rude, even in the context of “what might best grab headlines”. I know it was a joke, but still…
Equating people with animals, even indirectly, isn’t nice. It sets the precedent that there is a context where that’s acceptable, when that’s not acceptable in any context.
90% of the peole watching... women.
Well. They did say lesbian.
I'll be in my bunk.
Time to dust off this classic:
This thead is useless without pics.
This is the Insta reel (I don't think it's necessary to read the article, and that site is full of trackers - yes, more than Instagram).
The audience really do feel like they're performing to camera rather than genuinely having fun 😥

When I was young: “These events seem lame.”
Now: “These events are lame and my back hurts.”
When I was young: “These events seem lame.”
Now: "I should go to Lollapalooza."
I can’t wait until they start selling lollapalooza pearls.
Not pearls, a string of amethyst.
ok ty mr lollapalooza shill
I was shocked that Lollapalooza is still around
I live 15 mins from Grant Park. It is still the biggest event in Chicago every summer without fail.
Stupid people being stupid
You sound like a lot of fun to be around.
This isn't normal?
Are you sure???
And the crowd are going wild!
Is this a singular mosh pit?
And the guys watching suddenly find themselves with a place to rest their cameras.

L1: Great taste!
L2: Less filling!
