| Since when have cops decided to show up with scare tactics at Milliken (3 cruisers and a SUV) to tell the boys to toss their beers and get out.
Never seen so much traffic exiting to 14th ave at midnight before.

| Yeah, don't quite understand that either. At Crosby it's one thing where there are houses in the area ( possibly disrupting people)... but Milliken?
I'm callin' it now - That guy who went 0 for 4 with 3 Errors and went straight home with his cleats still on without saying bye tipped the cops off.

| I think we need to be a little more inconspicuous with our post game celebrations. I would suggest bringing red cups for all of our post game refreshments. Having brown bottles/cans out in the open is a "big red flag" to the cops. I also have been told that there have been complaints from Parks staff about "messes" being left in the dugouts, (empty water and Gatorade bottles)and in the parking lot (pizza boxes and peanut shells). Also, bring your empties home. Leaving them in the garbage pails isn't the smartest thing to do, especially with all the teams we have there now. Having 12 teams playing at Milliken on Tuesday is something new and causes us to stick out a lot more. Maybe we should plan our tailgating back in the NW corner of the parking lot away from the fields by the big trees. Teams could get together there, it would be more social too, a chance to get to know some of the guys on a different level. There are a lot of young families with kids using the park for soccer and baseball and playground/waterpark. They see 60 guys tossing back beers in the open, it's real easy to log a complaint. Let's try to be a little smarter with drinking out in the open. If the cops see us hanging around until 1:30am, they aren't stupid, they're sure to be back every Tuesday night with the paddy wagons arresting us for DD. They will make you blow.
Just my 2 cents
