I thought I could make it through all 3 days of New York City's biggest music festival - I was totally wrong

I made the trek to Randall's Island last Friday for New York City's Governors Ball, a raucous three-day music festival featuring big-name acts like Drake, My Morning Jacket, and the Black Keys.

Held in early June, the festival marks the beginning of a boozy, drug-addled summer for lots of the city's 20-somethings.

The year's festival didn't disappoint.

I tried to hold my own with New York's wildest partiers, but I'll be honest: I couldn't keep pace.
