Overpaid athletes have allegedly taken part in illicit sexcapades and other affiliated hedonistic behavior. No one knows of proof of illegality, but it's still news. I don't know how or why.
Christian youth party cut short(Some revelers had used drugs, alcohol)
A Mississippi River boat cruise for more than 400 members of Woodbury's Young Life group was cut short last weekend after a couple of students were found to have been drinking and using drugs. The incident occurred about 8 p.m. Saturday on the Harriet Bishop, the largest of the riverboats owned by the Padelford Packet Boat Co. in St. Paul. Padelford officials said Monday that alcohol was not available on board. "Whatever they had done, they had done prior to getting on board," said Gus Gaspardo, director of marine operations. "We only had pop available." Off-duty Ramsey County Sheriff's deputies were on board to provide security. Troy Daniels, an area manager for the Woodbury group, said every youth who boarded the boat was screened and patted down. Once police discovered that some students had been drinking and using drugs before boarding, Young Life officials decided to turn the boat around because of possible security and liability concerns, Daniels said. The boat was near shore when the cruise was canceled. Several fights also broke out on the boat, according to Woodbury High School Principal Linda Plante. "It was basically a small pocket that ruined it for everybody," Daniels said. "It was just students that were making poor choices."> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
