My rain barrel hit 500 gallons in one storm, blew my mind

Set up a basic 55 gallon barrel off the shed gutter last spring, nothing fancy. Last Tuesday we got a real gullywasher, and I rigged a second barrel with a connector hose. By morning they were both full plus overflow, so I grabbed my garden sprayer and estimated at least 500 gallons total captured that day. That got me thinking, how much water are the rest of you actually saving during a heavy rain, and does anyone use a bigger tank system that keeps up better?
