I did not know that you attended that "Historic" gathering. That must have been a hoot, and I know you are right about how clean it was afterwards. It is not out of the norm for Pubbie behavior. I have never been to a Pubbie function that looked a mess after the fact.

Yep, and I still have my button in a cabinet to get a chuckle over when I open it.

Everyone was picking up trash to toss out, regardless of how it got there. The most often heard words were "excuse me" and "thank you" as the crowd was so packed in together. We got there early to beat the traffic, which was a good thing. We were right in front of the podium for the program which meant we were among the last to leave and saw what people were doing to clean up.

The official Ft. Collins comment came out the next day as they complimented the entire group and thanked everyone for leaving it cleaner than it was before. They even quoted the trash crew saying they had more people than needed because of the way it was left.

When I was on holiday in 1997 I visited Boston Common after a marijuana festival had taken place, the common was a mess debris everywhere and some very spaced out squirrels as well which the previous day I had seen eating some "cake".

Again proving that as I suspect the majority of these participants were lefties that the so called ecofriendly warriors leave our world in a mess and do not clean up after themselves.
