It's an anecdote for sure that can happen anywhere with transients and the mentally ill. Still, I appreciated visiting St. Louis for the Arch, but it isn't on my list to return anytime soon (even though I was a big fan of the Westin).
I can’t wear pink shorts I’m a redhead they would throw tomatoes or worse 😂
