Staying cool was a problem... most folks left with pretty bad sunburns. Water and food was a problem too... obviously every store in town got cleaned out, and the on-site concessions did too. The organizers had drilled twelve wells, so there was water at least, though the lines were pretty long. By late afternoon you could buy a warm beer or Coke for three bucks a can (and this was back when gas was around fifty cents a gallon).
