Not sure exactly, but I know it was after memorial day and before skankhunt42 posted porn. Somewhere in that window.

I believe they're having a "brew at the zoo" this weekend if you wanna go when there's no kids. I saw it pop up in my Facebook feed.

Every year for Boo at the Zoo, little kids like it but it still sucks, and a couple of times for kids field trips. I really believe Boo at the Zoo and field trips keep that place barely running through the year. There's no giraffe, no elephant, the only halfway decent exhibit is the tiger. Not to mention it's in the hood.

So they're giving out alcohol and you don't have to listen to kids..I'll go just to compliment their business strategy and enjoy.

last Fall
It's not bad if you are looking to just walk around in nice weather, like on a "Nothing to do Sunday afternoon"
Not many cool zoo animals... mostly monkeys and birds, but not bad for $8 per adult

They hired a new sales and marketing person and are exploring different ideas to help drive activity back to the zoo.

At least they are trying. Finally.

What are you talking about? I'd pay 8$ just to watch the otters all day. Those crazy bastards are fun as hell.

Went a few months ago with my nephews. They didn't care about the animals at all and just played at the playground the whole time.

I'll be there tonight for Brew at the Zoo.

When I was in college about 14, 15 yrs ago.

The only reason I went was because extra points were given in an anthropology class if you brought in your ticket from the zoo.
