Was planning on doing a day trip to Bay St. Louis this weekend and just saw that Biloxi black spring break is going on. Does it stay contained to mostly the Biloxi and Gulfport area, or will I have to deal with the crowds in Bay St. Louis as well?

Not going to be a big deal in BSL. You're good. You have the Long Beach buffer. Also I49 leads right into GPort and those traveling on I10 will get off at GPT and Biloxi exits.

If you are in LB, Pass & BSL, you wouldn't even know it was going on in GPT/Biloxi.

What an awful thread. I'd hate to see anyone's weekend ruined after running into some minorities.

I thought this was held in Galveston?

The business along the sea wall typically board up for it.

There should be no impact...what do y'all have planned? The local arts paper is the Shoofly and it gets published today, https://www.bslshoofly.com/, it will have the events calender for Saturday (it's already up although it says March), 2nd Saturday around these parts...which is the best day of the month to visit. Hope y'all enjoy.

If you have any questions about BSL just ask.

The back patio at the Sycamore House is the best spot in town for drinks or a bite to eat right now.

Even more reason to go. Especially if you're a white guy. I'd be there if I was closer. Almost guaranteed at least 1 lay. As long as you're somewhat normal and decent looking.

In the late 90s I was in high school, I was in the Key Club, and we had our convention in Biloxi and it was the weekend of black spring break.

While there were no spring breakers in our hotel (our entire hotel was people there for the convention), they were up and down the beach.

as an impressionable 17 year old white boy, I was rather impressionable and some of the sights were simply, well, awesome for a 17 year old boy.

Traffic wasn't an issue because we arrived and left on a bus and could walk wherever we needed to go, but i remember the traffic basically being bumper to bumper all weekend.

We had a great time watching the sights. Our chaperones were a bit on edge though
