I've been encouraging my friends to set aside their preconceptions
about Asbury Park, and experience First Saturday.... with limited
success. To force participation, I offered to treat my friends to
dinner this past Saturday. "You'll love it! The merchants are all
open late, the sidewalks are alive, we'll usually spot Kevin Quinn
playing music, and there is a police presence..."
Well, we met in The Arcade on Cookman at about 6PM. We would stroll
around and then dine at Raffertys. I lead the way. No sooner had we
taken 20 steps out of The Arcade, I glanced back to see my "party" had
been approached and then detained by two women (late teens early
twenties) who were adamant about their wanting 50 cent from each of us.
Unfortunately, THAT will be the experience repeated to our friends'
friends.
