Why are A&M kids even in GS/OB? I know Texas beaches are gross but still.


Bc Panama City passed that open container law for their beach

So Ags used to go to PCB?

We used to spend weeks on end during spring/summer between Panama City and 30A, go out in both PCB/Seaside/Destin and I don't remember seeing or talking to an A&M person in the 5 years I was there (mid to late 2000s).

Is this a new thing?

Interesting. Always tons of LSU folks in that area, but hadn't seen a ton of Ags.

All 4 years I was in school the majority of my friends went to Gulf Shores, and a ton of people went to PCB. Several smaller groups went to Destin.

It's all the rivers pouring into a small area that make it muddy. Not a whole lot you can do about that.

I can show you the bama flags from all the parties this week if you want. They have trashed it just as much

The Mongolian hordes will just move on down to Pensacola or one of the Mississippi beaches I guess.

I have to imagine Gulf Shores/Orange Beach will have zero problem enacting laws to get rid of this. Unlike PCB, they have no reliance on massive college spring break spending to run their economy.

I came to bash people who leave their trash all over the beach. Decided to look at the pictures first...and they aren't all that bad. It almost looks like the trash was from only 1 or 2 groups. I was expecting a disaster.

its already in the works because of this week.

Locals barely put up with Hangout fest and that's a controlled localized environment. Last year was minor compared to what they are dealing with this spring break.

A friend of mine on west beach had a kid try to break into their house 2 nights ago. Last night/This morning, they had three sleeping underneath their house on the chairs/hammocks

And these trashed beaches probably still look nicer than baton rouge

Tuesday morning the beach in front of San Carlos looked like a landfill.

TAMU students put the word out about the trash that was left on the beach and they, along with others, helped clean up the beach. So not all of the breakers are total goobs.
