Another viral Facebook post with more than 2,000 shares showed at least six businesses inside the mall were closed, when they are normally open during those hours. And another post listed the 14 stores closed.

One Facebook user posted a picture of a sign at Shaggy's restaurant said it was "welcoming spring breakers" but automatically applying an 18 percent tip on patron's bills. "Shaggy's has NEVER had an automatic-gratuity, so why choose the BLACKEST WEEKEND on the Coast," the post said.

The city estimates about 30,000 people attended Black Spring Break. The hotel occupancy rate went from 90 percent full to more than 3,000 rooms available because of the threat of severe weather and "a number of declined credit cards," according to the city.

Brilliant by the businesses that closed and food venues that auto gratted.. protect yourselves and your employees.

People are obsessed with being miserable nowadays. I'm trying to be a more positive person. I need to avoid these types of threads. . . or the O-T in general.

Looks like a lot of credik cards were maxed out

I thought black people were supposed to be tough, between this and the starbucks guys saying they feared for their lives, I'm starting to believe they are soft.

The fact that this was a complaint is exactly why it’s a thing.

guess what, all spring breakers are unwelcome by the locals, they wish they would just give them their money and leave without all of the nonsense

It seems to me that black people are the ones obsessed with race. The honkies on the OT are just commenting on their obsession.

I was in Biloxi earlier this week for work. Saw the “spring break” setup. Man, that’s a sad scene for trying to have fun.

Can you blame them? These articles and stories get shared by all of you.
You want the media to stop talking about race? Stop watching/reading.

Good, because otherwise the staff would get a 1% tip from a party of 15.
