When I lived in The City, I’d have to move my car to Pacific Heights so it wouldn’t get vandalized. The Halloween Party was moved to the other end of Market Street for Saturday night. However, people still showed up on the 31st in the Castro.

I hear you on this one. Something similiar would happen where used to live at the Italian fest. It always would erupt in fights, first they banned alcohol but people would just show up drunk. They finally decided to cancel it. A shame really.
