personally I wish the boycott would have worked for Black Bike Week....what a mess that thing is...BTW some restaurant owners that shut down during that week were threatened with discrimination law suits but I don't know the outcome....anybody ever hear what happened on that?....also BTW I stopped by Maurices' BBQ in Columbia on Saturday and he still shows the good ole Stars and Bars on his bottled sauce...

They pulled the same stunt during BCR in Daytona. Local businesses would shut down to avoid property vandalism, theft, etc. I remember many private business owners claiming their annual vacation was that week - they packed up and fled the city during BCR.

Not sure what happened with those lawsuits, but I remember they filed another one when the city closed bridges to the beachside - they were over capacity and posed a risk should first responders be required.
