As far as I could see in the parade on past sunday, all the cops were actually on the other side of the fence monitoring if anyone would attempt to jump the fence and cross over to the side of the street, that's all, none of them even try to crack down on street drinking as none of them were actually on the sidewalk.
I'd really love to see the stats on how many people were ticketed for drinking during the parade. Despite all of the threads, apparently the city didn't even bring its ANOV bus, which is used to process people ticketed for drinking and other minor infractions. I bet fewer than 100 tickets were written.

Here are the preliminary stats for Sunday and early Monday morning. I'm really fed up with the thugs, criminals and drunkards who are trashing my neighborhood.
