Just look for the loud people wearing a really stupid hat. At Oktoberfest they sell these really hideous hats and I’m pretty sure only Americans buy them.
We went into town today. I really should have remembered that this is not a good idea during Oktoberfest. Kaufinger Strasse (the main shopping street in Munich) was filled to overflowing of people who apparently weren’t drinking (yet) and were actually enjoying some of the other parts of Munich. Then every once and a while you would hear a loud noise of a bunch of voices all trying to out shout the other, and sure enough they would be all wearing stupid looking hats in the shape of beer mugs or beer barrels with the blue and white check pattern of Bavaria. As they would approach I would start hearing the actual words, and sure enough … they were Americans.
