I am not a fan of statistics, but the annual post-Oktoberfest statistics, traditionally released on the last day of the festival, are always entertaining.
More than 6.4 million visitors descended on Munich to visit Oktoberfest; they drank 7 million liters of beer, ate 30.000 chicken, and stole 130,000 beer steins. The Oktoberfest statistics are especially famous for their numbers on intriguing items that were lost during the 2-week festival:
- 1,450 items of clothing
- 770 passports
- 420 wallets
- 420 mobile phones
- 1 rabbit
- 1 pug
- 1 leather whip
- and, as every year, 1 set of dentures
