What's the law against taking things people leave in public areas? Seems like it could be viewed as trash and free to anyone who wants it.




Not in the spirit of mardi gras yo!

Yeah, weve discussed this a bunch. I started a thread early in the week bitching about the folks spray painting big arse squares in the neutral ground on Orleans to save their spots. There were several spots like that already painted this past Sunday.
It's bull shite.

But, if someone rolls out the night before and drops a few ladders and chairs with a reasonable amount of space, it really doesn't bother me that much as long as they are out the next morning at daylight.

I've slept on Orleans before to save a spot. It's all for fun until the assholes come rolling up as the parade is coming down the street and let their 8 little tard kids jump all up in front of us and then sit their fatass in my chair.

Generally I don't care though. Pass people a beer and play nice. It's all good.

I wouldn't do it, but that thought is the reason I would never leave stuff overnight unattended. What could I really say if it was stolen?

This seems like a crime itself, and also something I would ignore either intentionally or without noticing it when finding a spot to stand.

If they get out there before I do, that's one thing.

When I get out there at 7 am and can't find a single spot on the neutral ground, yet there are 18 tied together ladders and 5 tents together, and the people show up 3 hours later, that's the issue.
