It had to look like the riot police. But it was a different time then, as you well know.

So I pulled up the van and about 8 cops piled out the back door and went in the bar. The shocked patrons just quit fighting in mid-swing.<br /><br />Priceless.<br /><br />256Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7225570644228196036.post-83520117993564955632011-01-03T17:23:08.950-06:002011-01-03T17:23:08.950-06:00chief,

We didn't have any reported last year, but we had about the same number the year before on New Years Eve. <br /><br />I think it's more a function of amateur night than the time the bar closes.Tom Casadyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03188041481309059441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7225570644228196036.post-63345615634462474492011-01-03T16:14:11.428-06:002011-01-03T16:14:11.428-06:00Only you Tom, would try and link the bar fights to...Only you Tom, would try and link the bar fights to the bars closing time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7225570644228196036.post-21190448478301136502011-01-03T15:57:43.852-06:002011-01-03T15:57:43.852-06:00Chief:

Seems like a good bar fight, with dozens of people involved, was a daily occurance back then for most any saloon.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10369138557977907215noreply@blogger.com
