backpack and no water, no food,
and expects us to take care of
them 'cause it's a gift economy.
I think, everybody should carry
their own weight,

the community out.
I mean, obviously we are, most of
the people go to Burning Man...
Hey! Stop hammering!
[JOHN LA GRACE]:
I got married at 24.
She was 21.
And she at the time was a
professional figure skater.
I'd always tell people what she
does and what I do
it's the exact same thing.
The curtains go up,
the lights go on and it's either
the Jon show or the Jamie show,
you know, she'd come home
with a medal,
and I'd come home
with a bag of money,
but it was still a show.
[LA GRACE]:
Well, it's very disconcerting,
in a one week period of time,

everything that you've done
in your entire life
leading up to that point
could potentially be wrong.
The a-ha moment for me was,
like, the burn of the man.
And I saw myself in that image.
I saw myself and my life
and everything that I thought
that it was supposed to be

This is hard...
Okay so then the better
way to do this is...
Because that's actually what

'Burning Man Ticket Lottery FAQ, '

We're trying to improve
our infrastructure,
