Fashion no-nos and stealing hearts weren’t the only crimes committed at Hangout Fest this year.
There were quite a few arrests made for felonies and misdemeanors.
We don’t want to give it away, but here’s a little table counting the arrests for the venue and surrounding area:
| OFFENSE | Total |
| Unlawful Possession of Controlled Substance | 109 |
| Distribution of Controlled Substance | 2 |
| Possession of Marijuana 2nd | 15 |
| Escape 3rd | 1 |
| Public Intoxication | 4 |
| Criminal Trespass 2nd | 8 |
| Attempt to Elude LE Officer | 2 |
| Assault 3rd | 1 |
| Possessing Forged Instrument | 1 |
| Exposure or Lew Act in Public | 1 |
| Criminal Trespass 3rd | 1 |
| Resisting Arrest | 2 |
| Obstructing Gov. Operations | 1 |
Not too bad…
As you can see, we won’t be seeing many folks on the other side because there were fewer arrests than last year — from 133 to 109.
What gives?
Well, maybe RHCP couldn’t bring it this year.
I mean, those guys are almost seniors. (We kid, they were great!)
Maybe we’re just not so stir-crazy anymore now that the pandemic’s over.
By the way, we’re not encouraging rowdy behavior.
But if we’re not going to let loose at a music festival, where else could we do it?
Aside from the dark necessities like booze and a little weed, we’re just relieved that there was only one hooligan who thought it was a good idea to show people “the goods.”
*Ahem* That’s not the sort of self-expression that we were expecting.
Overall, Hangout Fest was a blast.
The lineup was amazing, and folks are flooding Twitter, spreading the good vibes even after the event.
And even though some people partied a little too hard, they couldn’t ruin the fun for everyone else!
