SHAME ON TIC & TAC. These guys break park regulations and noise
laws by setting up and playing super-loud drums and paint pails that make
it impossible to hear any acoustic music in the square. And then, to make
it worse they walk up to tourists and intimidate them into giving them
money. Also, shame on park rangers for not enforcing the regulations.
When you see these guys please complain to the park rangers. |
