A heartfelt missed connection post from r/OutsideLands has taken the festival community by storm. Two guys met at Outside Lands, shared a romantic, movie-worthy kiss and a memorable night—but never properly exchanged contact information. The poster discovered the other guy’s phone number tucked away in a jacket only the next morning, too late to reach out before leaving San Francisco.
Small but vivid details like a lightsaber keychain and plans to attend grad school in Colorado made this story resonate deeply with Redditors, encapsulating the magical serendipity only festivals can create.
The comment section has been buzzing, mixing playful tips (“Check your gay friends’ keychains!”) with practical strategies like searching LinkedIn by name and school. The post perfectly sums up the fleeting, electric energy of festival encounters and the hope for a meaningful next chapter.
Festival takeaway: if you find a number, don’t wait—write it down before you hit the airport.
