30,000+ people go out to the desert in Nevada for a weeklong festival of sorts. I went a few years ago and had a blast. But it wasn't so much fun for me that I've gone back or anything, but it was great to go at least once... :teeth
Note: it goes from being the empty Black Rock desert to Nevada's fifth largest city (complete with its own post office), then back to empty desert again, all within a month or so (the proper event lasts a week but there's a lot of setup and take down time of course).
Edit - more stats: the ring is something like 2 miles in diameter and so a walk around the outside is a solid 6 miles or so. Nuts.
