I didn’t know that the Amish liked to party so hard
We hardly ever have any people shot during Spring Break.
They just fall out of 10 story balconies......................
Not enough alleys in Miami.
Apparently the real trouble makers weren’t the typical college students traveling down to Miami but rather mostly locals from Miami Dade County.....
Good. No reason to let some stupid kids turn parts of your cities into toilets for 10 days then run away like cockroaches in the light. Enough. Mature, adult tourists spend just as much money and cause far less damage.
Is this that “Urban Spring Break” or whatever they call it?
I’ve been saying spring break has been out of hand for at least three decades.
I did go on spring break to Myrtle Beach back in 1973. It was bleak, Myrtle Beach had yet to be blown way out of proportion there was a couple of bands that we saw and on a Friday night we went down town to Old Myrtle Beach and watched the police haul drunken North Cackalackian college pukes off to jail.
The next day we took the tour and drove by the jailhouse to see a line of people wrapped around the jailhouse waiting to bail their friends or family out of jail after their night of revelry.
On Sunday, we went to the back of some grocery store to the loading dock and got a couple of cases of beer, because they could not sell beer on Sunday in North Carolina back then. But there were Merchants willing to break the law and help us out.
I should have just gone home and relaxed but no I had to go to the beach and experience cold weather, lots of sand, and a few beers with J Geils Full House blasting on the stereo from the balcony of a family owned beach house.
I guess over the years it only got a lot worse. But like I said they should have put the kibosh on spring break 30 years ago.
As housing developments grew and beaches became more populated the crowds during spring break grew became more and more destructive and then generally pissed off the locals.
I went to Daytona Bike Week once too and it was the same deal, sand on everything, beer, and generally speaking - a boring-ass time.
Yawn....
Do I need to look?
Ban those that cause the trouble. After you arrest them and throw the book at them.

Also the World Baseball Classic going on down there.
The usual suspects. White supremacists wearing blackface. Happens all the time.
Well, there’s Spring Break, and then there’s BLACK Spring Break.
Simple solution; put a toll booth on the bridge and charge to enter and exit the city during springbreak.
Raise the bridges!!! We have family who live in Miami Beach, including someone who works on the beach. Sigh.
Miami Beach was a really classy, beautiful and expensive place to go during the 30’s thru the 60’s. TV shows like Surfside Six and the hotels like the Fontainebleau and the NY style deli’s on Collins Avenue. Many High school proms were held there and James Bond even met Goldfinger.
The late 70’s saw the Cocaine Cowboys move in along with a significant bunch of gays, later in April of 1980 the Mariel boatlift brought over 100,000 Cubans to Florida, most of them settled in Miami and Miami Beach. It was during this time period that South Beach started to go downhill. With the crime and drugs the Black population started to increase and since they were not welcome in Daytona or Ft. Lauderdale they came to SoBe as it is called now for their version of Spring Break.
How sad that a once beautiful American city has turned into a ghetto jungle but truth be told Miami Beach is not alone in this, look at Chicago, NY, LA and SF and just about any major city in this country where crime and drugs are a way of life.
Believe it when you see it. Merchants make a lot of money off those hoodlums.
