There was a huge party today in Santa Barbara (it's still going on), and I'm currently listening to police try and subdue a large crowd from my dorm window. The police are on loudspeakers, sirens are tuning on and off, there are small explosions in the distance and a police helicopter just showed up...I think there's a riot in SB about 1000 yards from my window. I may be exaggerating slightly, but it's been a long day...and I was planning on going to bed early so I could watch the race tomorrow. I'll try and update this if anything happens. Picture of the party earlier in the day below, and a few nice cars above.

Haha! I go to UCSB too and live in bloody IV. I went home for the weekend. Two years here and 0 Deltopias under my belt. Live in Manzanita or Santa Ynez I take it?

Manzanita. If you ever see a matte black bike with an orange OPPO sticker on it, that's me.

I'll be observant then. I drive a Volvo and have already gotten a ton of scratches on the damn paint. Has any idiot tried to sit on your bike and tipped it over yet?

good work! Stay away from the really crazy stuff.

I graduated 2001. I was in IV the night that dude ran over a bunch of people and killed them :(

IV is still pretty violent regardless of Halloween or no Halloween. I think they were more concerned about property destruction.

That's a bummer. I never got into any trouble in IV. Never had someone try to fight me. It seemed ok when I was there outside the massive weekends when people came from out of town.

Meh, UCSB '80-'85; the trick, the trick, the proper trick is to do it without attracting the constabulary. Old school, we had the Sheriffs in town, in IV, and still got ALL the Krazy in without the riot control. New school, all the punks mess it up for everyone else. Who needs cops coming in and pissing on everything? Probably all the jerk out-of-towners coming in, thinking they're going to make the party; they're generally just effin' it up for the locals.

Definitely the out-of-towners. I heard of people coming in from as far away as Boston just for the party yesterday.

GO GAUCHOS or something, it's kinda hard to be proud of your school when they do shit like this.

Yeah...

To be fair a bet a lot of the people involved were from out of town. It's usually the people that come in from other areas for big events like Halloween and Spring Break that site the most shit.
