Summer is nearly over and so, too, is festival season (not that there is any shortage of festivals in September or October). We hit a ton of these fests, from the parks to the streets. We were there in the slop at Lollapalooza. We threw brightly colored dust at other joggers at the Color Run. And we have the ruined sneakers to show for it. Not to mention a ton of photographs. 

For an interactive way of reminiscing of the summer that was, we put together this little quiz. Think you know what the average festivalgoer looks like at Pitchfork or Market Days? Take your best shot. Type the correct letter answer (A, B, C or D) in the blank. Keep guessing until you get the right answer—then you'll be able to move on!
