...and who needs sleep anyway?

Yeah, that's headache I don't need.
If car groups are on the police's radar, I'm not dealing with it. Sorry...

Perhaps an "official" meet, where we get the property owner's permission; that I would go to. :)

That's not very cool to give all a ticket. They could have given a warning, then the next time ticketed (maybe they did, but it didn't sound like it). I would hate to innocently show up at a meet and later find out I was trespassing and get hit with a $90 ticket.

Evidently some of the officers were telling people that the tickets would not hold up, that if they showed up to contest the ticket it should be dropped. I think the main issue was that this parking lot was a big parking lot, and the cars there for the meet were taking up just about every spot. The BMW meet is small, When I was there it was like 7 cars, I think its usually 10ish...so I doubt we would ever have a problem. I think they ate at outback last time too. It's not like the 100+ cars at walmart were paying customers.
