"He said the police department typically has extra officers on duty during Smoke Out, and that it hasn't caused problems in previous years."
The Salisbury politicians have been raising a stink about the event all spring, and whining about all the "problems" those bikers create. An article a few months ago quoted one of them calling it a "Beer Fest and Skin Buffet". Well if it wasn't, I probably wouldn't go. LOL

And this is why I won't go to any of the big rallies in the USA, like Sturgis, Laughlin River Run, etc. Cops are crawling all over the place, and hotels are jacked up to the point where you're just getting bent over.
