text: So did anyone go to the last First Friday event? (It was on May 5th, 2011)\n\nThat was really, really weird. Cages all around the street festival on Casino Center, event staff members checking everyone and I saw at least 50 cops/security guards standing around. \n\nI quickly left that area (cops make me feel uncomfortable.....must be a black people thing), and a few hours later I heard rumors of cops strolling through the main event area and shutting it down. \n\n........WTF? I'm definitely going next month, but if it's like that again, sorry, but that's gonna take the fun out of it.
