I wouldn't insult my child with that. In fact the average 6 yr old would probably say 'WTF?! I can build a fucking den under a table with a duvet cover that's better than that thing!'
shittest festival tent ever in the world.

I just bought a Lichfield Apache 3 Person Tent.
It sounds like an attack helicopter

I bought one for a tenner from wilkinsons - thought i'd unpack it before taking it to the festival and it had a note saying "NOT SUITABLE FOR OUTDOOR USE"!
then bought one of those standard argos cheapos - it lasted a couple of slightly rainy festivals but could not survive bestival last year. luckily i was camped on a hill so kept my drinks cold in the pool of water at the bottom of the tent!
I now have a campervan

Dunno about tent but the shittiest sleeping arangement at a festival was a guy in a white linen suit who simply rolled himself up in a plastic tarpaluin. He seemed to have little other luggage than a bottle of whisky and a pocket full of hash as well.
Surprisingly, he managed to look surprisingly suave and chipper the whole time.
I saw someone doing this in '95, and also watched someone leave a portaloo that they had been sleeping in (oh the humanity!) and go for a cuppa, meanwhile a sneak thief crept into the crapper and chored his shit stained sleeping bag.......class.

My brother and his friend stayed in a worse tent at Reading in about 2000.
It was an old one-man canvas tent, with wooden poles in the I-I style. But they didn't bother to check that they had the middle one. Or guys. Or more than two pegs. And they were both too big for it. Somewhere there is a wonderful morning picture of two pairs of feet sticking out this collapsed tent. Every night they'd carefully angle the two remaining poles and tether them to the ground using whatever bits of string, rope, tape etc they could find, carefully climb in, before the poles gentle collapsed inwards on top of them. Comedy gold.

anyone seen any spectacularly shitty tents this year?
I haven't, but this will always be the winner for me.
This was an urbs tent at Glasto 2007, it was so SHIT!!!! some of the highlights were urb being curled up inside the 'tent' while some bigger boys crowded round the tent dissing it and talking about how shit it was while said urb was inside and biting their hand because they didn't want the bigger boys to know they were in there.
public comments about this tent included:
'do you think it's for keeping beer in?'
'it looks like a body bag'
'you could die in that and no one would know'
'what the fuck is THAT?!'
'watch out you nearly stepped on a tent there'
Everyone loves this tent. The shitness level is off the scale.
my tent is a similar 3-corner design, but a lot posher:
it has amazing orange anodized unbendable aluminium pegs

Is so vanilla
Isn't he too tall for that tent? I could probably sleep in it, but then I'm only 5'... were his feet sticking out the door? 
That looks like a scene from Blair Witch Project. How the fuck anyone would get any shut eye there god only knowsmy tent is a similar 3-corner design, but a lot posher:

You're not alone there! That tent is my favourite thing in the whole world, ever!!

Back when Glastonbury was still good my mate took a child's pop up tent to sleep in. Didn't bother to peg it down, cos he thought his curled up body (tent was about 3 ft square) would hold it down.
Someone nicked it the first night we were there so he had to make do with a pink blanket off the Joe Banana stall or whatever it was called.
I went to Reading with just a sheet of plastic one year & hung it over a stolen scaffolding pole leant against a fence. It worked but was a bit cold, and I seem to remember there being ants involved.
