Public drunkenness, disorderly conduct leads to 233 arrests at annual Jeep Weekend event in Galveston Texas. 50+ people rushed to hospital

Oh great tons of people on the beach. I would rather stick pins in my eyes than go to a massive rally like that of any kind.

Slipknot has a song on the album Iowa that sums this up...

We're better than this, this is SXS shit.

Yep. Those rubes ruined a Toys for Tots event that I used to attend. When the organizers asked for post-event feedback, I suggested that they grow a pair and not allow the SXS crowd (for whom alcohol and poor behavior are in the job description) admittance to what was clearly advertised, and should have been enforced as, a dual sport-only charity event.

As soon as I saw the side by sides (and the brodozers) in the "Jeep event" photo on p.1 of this thread, I figured the contents of the linked news articles would be preordained. And so it was.

Texas still has LEGAL rattlesnake roundups, so no surprise these shenanigans happen there. Who honestly even gets excited for shit like this? Seems embarrassing to me.

This is why I don't feel an automatic kinship with other Jeep owners.

I dont even feel automatic kinship with most humans.

Banish them from the community. Selfish immature irresponsible jerks have no place ruining the reputation of responsible off road enthusiasts. Crucify their ducks, burn their angry eye grills, pillage their unused recovery gear, drink their white claw and recycle the can, reserve the trash for the animals piloting these vehicles

NOPE, even free white claw is still shit alcohol

It’s a Texas thing….. another reason why I hate Texas

If I was 23 again looks like a blast. Kinda like Bourbon Street during Mardi Gras fun once. If they would move the dates so it does not coincide with HS graduation weekend it would help. I cant believe they let it go on, heck this is the same Police Dept. that wrote me a ticket for doing a SLOW donut on beach at 10PM on a empty Thursday night luckily %100 not a thing to drink. It is a show for sure and probably brings in tons of $$ for the City, but way too many SxS out there to run into my Jeep at night no thank you!!

Im no jeeper, but always read this happens there

How come there and not Florida?

Well, from my understanding most of not all beaches can’t be driven on at least on the gulf side of Florida, with maybe a few exceptions per year. No clue about Atlantic side.

Therefore giant overly rowdy beach party happens in Texas

Again???? That seems to be an ongoing problem there……🫤

Indeed. You should see my ignore list.

Slipknot was right (People = Shit)

This is the only non-news story I've seen about Crystal Beach Go Topless Day this year. Not my kind of scene at all, but to each their own I guess.

Watching that video confirms my bias. These things aren't for me. The whole reason I have a jeep is to get away from people and enjoy nature. Group Think is a powerful drug, and exponentially more powerful when mixed with mind altering substances.

Thanks for posting the video. How boring to go sit in rush hour for your vacation time.
