  2. 250 petot this year ang tickets sa entrance... different venue rin sila... they're back to the original venue at OMNI Aviations grounds... dun sa may mga dalang sasakyan ang entrance ay nasa SCTEX Clark South Exit... sa mga commuters baka dun sila sa kabilang side sa ruta ng mga jeep medyo mahabang lakaran... so far yan ang nakuha pa naming information...
