Airbrush Face Painting

Some say paint makes anything better. Ask that to someone who is
applying it across their windshield before they head out on the
highway and this may not ring true. Ask that to someone that is
looking at a pair of painted titties and it will seem as if truer words
have never been spoken. Stop by here where a team of makeup
artists will do you up right quick so you can represent your Juggalo
Pride in style

Art Contest

Do you like sculpting DJ Clay out of clay, painting your own ass
with smiley faces, or taking photos of man nipples? Juggalos,
without question, are some of the most artistic ninjas on the planet
and it's time for them to rise up in this muddafacko! Every artist
may enter 1 to 3 visual works of art (sculpting, painting, computer
graphics, photography, etc.) for this contest. A panel of judges will
then rate each exhibit on technical skill, originality, and inspiration to
determine who the top three winners are.

Auctions

Back by overwhelming demand is this off-the-chain event! No one
really knows why the crowd gets so wild when a bidding war ensues,
but it happens all the same. Perhaps it's due to the ultra-rare
Psychopathic items being auctioned (all with a starting bid of $1).
Perhaps it's due to the crowd's consumption of too many chemical
substances. Perhaps it's due to the thrill of crushing a rival bidder's
hopes and dreams. Whatever the reason, you're gonna wanna be here
to see this for yourself! Cash and credit are accepted, and letters
of authenticity will be presented with each item won.

Balla Beach Bonfire

Smoke rises like mist above the expanse of a black lake that lays still with an eerie calm. Diamond stars shine brightly overhead, reflected with the silhouettes of the boughs of great pines. You feel the magic of hot fire warming your skin as a soft breeze lingers, carrying the sounds of music, laughter, and the jubilant shouts of the Juggalo Family. Suddenly, radiant orange and yellow faces manifest before you, shining forth from across the flames. “Sup, ninja! You got a light?” Enter the sacred circle of the Loon Lake Balla Beach Bonfire, where drinks will be shared, smoke will be passed, and Juggalo Family bonds will be formed that will last well beyond the smoke and ash. Warm up by this lakeside beach bonfire and ease your mind as you unwind and recline with homies by your side!

Burning Man

Fifteen years ago, right on Lotus Lake, a man died. He was a fisherman, killed when his boat was hit by lightning during an electrical storm. The strike ignited the gas tank in the small boat's engine. He immediately caught on fire, and burning to death, his body fell into the lake, never to be seen again. Now, according to the legend, on July 19th every year at precisely midnight, if you look toward Crow Island in the middle of Lotus Lake, you will see his ghostly apparition burning a bright red for several minutes before he falls once again back into his watery grave.

These tightly-clothed vixens are as cruel as they are beautiful. They are tried and true worthy combatants of the ring who will win your heart as they tear, claw, punch, and kick their way to victory. They can be soft and feminine at times as they seduce the crowd with oozing sexual charisma, but don't be fooled by their desirable demeanor or shapely bodies, for they will stop at nothing to destroy their opposition in their attempt to climb up the mountain of shattered foes to win the coveted women's JCW belt!

One of the most exhilarating things to do at the Gathering grounds this year is to take a plunge on one of the three gigantic waterslides that each end in a ramp at various angles, with each one more ruthless than the next. Come and see if you are brave enough to stand atop the tall tower and launch yourself hurtling down the slide at extreme speeds. Or simply watch from the safety of the beach as you see ninjas catapult into the air as they flip head over heels to finally be power bombed into the water below!

Faygo Launching Contest

This is a skill that Juggalos have been perfecting since the first Faygo bottle was rocketed from an ICP stage on a carbonated trail of bubbly pleasure. For this contest of explosive fun, competitors have 2 attempts to launch a Faygo bottle from the stage as far as they can using any technique they wish (triple tap stage bounce, middle finger rocket launch, suppository release, Hail Mary throw, etc.).

This is where those who have mastered the riddle of steel will battle to prove their worth. It's a gladiatorial freestyle arena, where true MCs will be born in a trial of soul, blood, and tears as they fell their opponents with rhythmic words sharper than any blade.

Each rapper will first freestyle to the audience for 60 seconds (the beat will be provided). The judges will then determine which 8 will move on to the final round. The final round will then consist of an elimination-style battle where two rappers at a time will compete directly against each other with the winner of each round being determined by the judges (who will take crowd reaction into heavy consideration). This will continue until there is only one.

Helicopter Rides

Have you ever been in a helicopter? I got to go up in this one at last year's Gathering. It was a pretty short ride, but the experience was worth every single penny.

This isn't like some huge helicopter ready to airlift you out of the jungles of Kung-Pow. No, this thing is small and nimble, like the stock footage of helicopters used in every low-budget movie made in June of 1986. When it lifts off, it feels a bit like being in a glass elevator, and you're thinking that you know what's it's like to be up flying. THEN the ride really begins ... and you realize just how fucking fresh it is to be in a helicopter! That little whirlybird beats the shit out of a roller-coaster any day of the week!

It's not everyday you get to ride in a helicopter, so take the time to enjoy this unique experience.

Hooded Magician

This full-on magic show is brought to you by one of the most gifted masters of illusion ever known. He simply goes by the moniker of The Hooded Magician. His R-rated show is not for those with a weak disposition, for you will see people maimed, tortured, and pulled apart all for the sick and utter amusement of it all. Always pushing the boundaries of what is acceptable, people have been known to walk away midshow due to the offensive nature of his act. His brand of entertainment has been labeled as offensive, disturbing, gross, shocking, sick, and horrifying to name a few. Call it what you will—there is no denying what it truly is and that's pure adult entertainment.

Then see them act as mental puppets to his every whim and fanciful desire. Do you question if this is real... do you even dare take the chance to find out? Who knows you may even find yourself into some deep hypnotic felching action if you volunteer yourself as a human guinea pig.

But if you’re a Juggalo, then you’ll love the fact that this year you’ll be able to ask them all the questions you like! It’s like a shoot interview, but you better not ask them about their mamma... this thing can quickly turn into a shoot match, and the only one headed to the hospital would be you!

Hosted by the super sexy and talented all-female dance crew The Monster Dolls, get ready to show off your dance skills in this very controversial contest, because it’s well known that Juggalos don’t dance! But don’t worry about that, because this contest is all about entertaining the judges with your skillful, silly, or embarrassing dance moves, because as everyone knows the worst dancers are often the most entertaining to watch. Everyone will be given 45 seconds to a minute to school it. The DJ can play whatever song you request or bring your own music on CD or portable device.

Juggalo Gong Show

This chaotic game show hosted by the flamboyant Chuck Bareass is one of the Gathering's best kept secrets. Anyone can compete by taking the stage to display whatever talent they possess; be it pogo stick tricks, projecting flame farts, singing acapella, playing butt bongos, or a jiu jitsu demonstration (but please no rapping). You can perform for up to 2 minutes alone or with a group of friends. Don't come correct and you may get gonged, but last till the end and the judges will rate your performance, with the top three scores winning! All the while there will be lap dancing man babies, sword wielding small people, glitter showers, scantily clad exotic dancers, and giant inflatable puppets. So don't miss this show that is sure to please, tease, and cause you to bounce like double Ds!

Juggalo Night Court

This is where all beefs are squashed and all problems are solved at the barrel of a Faygo filled super soaker! If you have any kind of grievance at the Gathering, then bring all affected parties to this court to settle it once and for all. Judge High Bone will be presiding as you plead your case. The jury (and sometimes executioners) will be all Juggalos in attendance who will decide the victor. The winning party gets a Juggalo Night Court T-shirt while the main representative of the losing side must spin the dreaded Wheel of Bone to decide which of 13 random bones they will have to endure…now that's Juggalo Justice!

Juggalo Psypher Auditions

This is huge! We bring to you your chance to be in a Psychopathic Records filmed and produced Juggalo Psypher music video!

Each performer will then be scored on flow, lyrical content, and stage presence. The names of the top 6 scored will then be posted at the Info Tent Those chosen will then return to perform in a professionally filmed music video. This video will then eventually be posted on all Psychopathic's social media sites, webpages, and YouTube channel! This is arguably one of the dopest contests at the Gathering this year!

Killer Clown Academy

Ever wonder what it would be like to be one of the killer clowns on stage during an ICP live performance? Well here is your chance to find out firsthand! The Killer Clown Academy is a grueling but short school that simulates the real conditions that these performers go through. There are four challenges in all during this elimination-style process, with the top 3 students earning the right for a once in a lifetime opportunity to perform on the Big Top stage during ICP's GOTJ show!

Dance of the Wicked — All students will take the stage at the same time to get as live as humanly possible. All the while they will be blasted with super soakers, confetti cannons, water balloons, and empty Faygo bottles. Judges will give out 20 golden tickets to those that schooled it the hardest, who will then get to move on to the next round.
Faygo Flair — Students will be scored by judges by how creatively they can launch, spray, or empty a 2-liter of Faygo. Panache, showmanship, and style are all that matters; distance is not important. Those in clown suits will get an extra 2 liter and will
get to use the better of the 2 scores. The students with the top 12 scores will get to move on to the next round.
Faygo Relay — Students are timed by how quickly they can move twenty 2 liters of Faygo from one container to another using any method they choose (no tools allowed). The students with the best 6 times will move on to the next round.
Super Soaker Marksmanship — Students will attempt to be the fastest at knocking down 6 empty Faygo bottles set at various distances using only a super soaker filled with Faygo. The students with the best 3 times will graduate from the Killer Clown Academy and be able to perform on stage with ICP as a Killer Clown! Dope...dope...DOPE!!!

Miss Juggalette Pageant

Juggalettes are by far the most attractive women on the planet. Their beauty is exemplified through their intellect, charm, creativity, spirit, and physical form. They are the mothers of the Earth and nurturers of life who can avert war with but a smile. They are to be treasured, respected, and honored above all because it's their love that moves the universe. This pageant pays homage to all of our treasured Juggalettes and for many is the most monumental event at the Gathering.
It consists of three rounds:

#1: Personality: Q&A.
#2: Talent: Contestants show off a skill (dancing, rapping, juggling, etc.).
#3: Swimsuit competition

! Judges will tally the scores from all rounds (taking crowd reaction into heavy consideration) to determine who will become this year's Juggalette Queen!

Mist Tent

It’s not a Tempest storm, but it’ll sure feel like it! These are special tents that you can walk into for a colling burst of clean water. You can come through any time they are operating, and get a refreshing break from the sun. This is not a shower or a bath, so leave your rubber ducky and water wings behind. They are designed for Juggalos to get in and out quickly, so don’t hog all the water!

Moon Bounce

Come on… you know you want to. You haven’t tried it for years but every time you walk by one, your heart secretly aches to the carefree days of your childhood when it was acceptable to climb in and fly around inside of its inflatable embrace. Go ahead and do it. Let your inhibitions lie, for you will find it’s just as much fun now as it was all those years ago (especially if you have a few stacked hotties to join you).

Murder Mayhem Show

For this game show four male and female couples will compete against each other to see who can earn the most points by being the best at performing a series of hysterical physical challenges. At the end of each round whoever did the worst will have to under go some sort of embarrassing or disgusting torture or face elimination from the game. Various prizes will be given out along the way but the grand prize winners will receive the ultimate prize of a all expense paid weekend vacation to non other then Europe to visit the Psychopathic European Headquarters!!! Stop playin' titty winks, this is the bomb y'all!

Neden Game

Got Neden? This ridiculous and slightly perverse game show returns once again to the Gathering and it aims to please (like a butt-plug wielding Brony). Here contestants are randomly drawn from the crowd to try to win a date with a tempting Juggalette or a suave Juggalo ninja (two rounds total). All you have to do is answer a series of bizarre questions from your romantic conquest who will remain hidden behind a screen until the very end when they will choose their date. The winner of each round will then get the privilege of hanging out backstage with their new found lady friend or suitor from 8pm till midnight! What happens after that relies entirely on Cupid's ability to penetrate (or not) with his performance-enhanced lubricated arrow.

Ninja Olympics

Shadow warriors gather each year for this sacred martial contest to determine whom amongst them will be bestowed the title of grand master of all ninjas! To survive one must possess equal parts strength, cunning, quickness, and prowess. The last assassin left standing will then be able to tread upon the shattered corpses of their fallen foes to claim their prize! In each of the five rounds, ninjas will have to battle one opponent to see if they can advance to the next.
Round #1: Foam Long Swords.
Round #2: Foam Short Swords.
Round #3: Sumo Wrestling.
Round #4: Martial Arts (light contact to the torso only, with protective gear).
Round #5: Three vs. One Battle (try to last the longest against three ninjas using pugil sticks).
Ninja referees will oversee the bouts, with all rounds (except the last) being best out of five. In the end, there can be only one...Could it be you?

Oddball Wrestling

There is no real way to describe what you will witness at JCW's Oddball Brawl because these shows contain some of the most bizarre wrestlers on the planet competing in matches that were created by the farthest stretches of the human imagination. We're talking about Cactus to the Nuts Triple Tag Scaffold Matches, Bloody Battle Anal Explosion Matches, and everything in-between. Have you ever seen a group of small people take on a goliath weighing over 600 lbs? Well here is the place to satisfy all your twisted and dark horror fantasies all in one sitting. Prepare for wigs to be peeled and "holy shit" chants to ring through the air. This is not to be missed because it's the spectacle of all spectacles!

Oddity Freak Show

This show is not for those with weak stomachs, faint hearts or gerbil bladders. Here you will see people submit their bodies to levels of pain and punishment that should not be humanly possible to survive. From skin suspensions, body immolation, skin piercing, fire eating, extreme pierced weightlifting, bed of nails, sword swallowing and much more. Your mind will spin as you have a hard time believing what your eyes see. This show is truly an amazingly wicked spectacle that is not to be missed!

Paintball

This was suppose to happen last year but was logistically deemed impossible. Now however since we are outdoors in the woods, it is very possible. This is perhaps the most devastating new event at the Gathering this year and everyone (and we mean everyone) has to play this at least once. 20 players at a time will battle it out in a thick, forested area of the park providing plenty of cover for tactics. Players then will need to use stealth, cunning and quick thinking if they want to survive as the competition is sure to be fierce. Official referees will be on hand to ensure fair play.
Sorry, but you may not bring your own paint guns, but may bring your own mask and protective gear.

Peep This Shit

During the times allotted for Peep This Shit, anyone can get up on stage and perform for up to 10 minutes at a time. We're talking about a professional sound system, 2 mics, and a sound crew to keep your flavor crispy. Music can be played from a variety of devices or a beat can be provided for you. Here is your chance to rap, sing, dance, play an instrument, or whatever the fuck you want. Seeing as the stage is located in the heart of the Gathering, there are sure to be some ninjas in attendance. If nothing else, you can have someone record that shit as proof that you performed at the GOTJ!

You will not only see surprise guest appearances, bizarre and somewhat dangerous competitions (for prizes), wardrobe and body oil malfunctions, but also plenty of gratuitous sex, violence, and peanut brittle.

Remote Control Car Races

Here six players at a time will race high speed professional remote control cars on a giant obstacle ridden race course with plenty of ramps, tunnels, bottle necks, drops and curves to make it more then entertaining. Contestants are encouraged to ram or sideswipe the competition in order to come out on top and claim the prize.

At the Gathering: 2003

Ring Girl Competition

This is not just about raw physical assets…though that does help. It's about possessing a true JCW attitude, the ability to inspire a salivating crowd and the confidence to represent the wrestling world to the fullest. Contestants should bring their sexiest hookup (bikini, lingerie, dress etc. / dressing area will be provided) as they will each be given a chance to walk to the ring holding a match card as they strut their stuff trying to win the crowd's approval. The crowd will then ultimately decide the winner by applause. Oh, and the final two winners will be given a wrestling backstage pass and have the opportunity to be a JCW ring girl for the wrestling matches, including Bloodymania!

If you can manage to stay relatively beneath them, it may be to your benefit, because they will be dropping mystery bundles of GOTJ17 merchandise for whoever is lucky enough to get to them first. So when you start to hear the slight hum of the plane as it passes overhead at 15,000 feet, start to look upward because you will be in for a great skydiving show and perhaps some free merchandise!

Hosted by none other than the legendary Gweedo and 3D, you will find yourself both laughing hysterically at the live commentary and simultaneously horrified by the brutal atrocities committed in the ring.

It's all how you choose to look at it. Is your glass half empty or is it half full of putrid infected water that could kill a small hippo? All joking aside, Lake Hepatitis is a safe swimming area for all to enjoy...cough cholera...cough...water snake...cough.

This is a game that will test the mental fortitude of its players. It is equal parts deception, wit, endurance, luck, intimidation, and perception. The best are those who play the player and not the cards, because in the end it's predominately a game of skill as well. For this grueling elimination-style competition, players try to earn all the chips to win, while also looking to take out the celebrity bounty player to earn the special bounty prize!

Wake Zone Water Park

No boat needed at the Wake Zone, a unique water sports park designed for wakeboarding, waterskiing, kneeboarding, or wakeskating. Whether you are an experienced athlete or it’s your first time strapping into a wakeboard, the Wake Zone is the perfect place for you. The experienced staff will get you on the water in no time. The cable system can pull up to 7 participants at the same time. No appointment needed to wakeboard. Just show up! The overhead cable system runs in a continuous counterclockwise motion, allowing riders to enjoy a nonstop water sports adventure. After a rider falls, it’s just a quick swim to shore and a walk back to the dock, and you’re ready for another go! Check out www.lostlakesamp.com for pricing.

Wet T-Shirt Contest

Faygo exploding off of jiggling curves in a slow motion expanse of colorful glistening drops in the afternoon sun. Soaked, scantily clad Juggalettes frolicking gleefully as their laughter is lost in the drowning roar of the excited crowd. Things bounce, while others harden against cloth stretching to contain them. This is as if your fantasies came to life. Music, Juggalettes, and Faygo: what more could you ask for? A private dressing room will be provided.

Zip Lining

With this fun ride, you will be able to rope slide from the top of a 35-foot tower near the Big Top Stage all the way to the bottom. Just let the operators help you secure the harness and then hold on tight as the gates are opened, allowing you take the leap of faith to speedily slide all the way down in mere seconds. Though very exciting, this can also be a terrifying experience, so think twice before you climb that tall tower to look down that line at your distant destination, which rests way down beneath you!
