thats weird how they can give you a parking ticket for parking somewhere that there is no "No parking signs." Also curious on how the cops got everyone's plates......

How much was it for anyways?

Chances are they are/were issuing tickets (likely parking as mentioned) to everyone that was in a certain area at a certain time. Its thier way of telling you that your being watched, and possibly a hint that you arent wanted at that place.

Think of it like a street racers GTFO notice. Even if you werent racing, they dont want you to start.

I never left my car, so it was never parked. That's why I think this is stupid. I might just fight it to be a dick and prove a point. They need to stop being so sloppy.

The funny part about that is that they are issuing parking tickets when they caught the car in motion passing them on the street. Sounds like profiling to me. How much was the ticket?

I just went there because I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. I got to see a few nice cars then left. Better being parked than racing on the street.

Wonder if this is the new way of dispatching jury summons so people can't play the, "I didn't get nuffin'!" game.
