    About 10 years ago, us who lived on that stretch of Hertel started calling it the moolie-fest..........

    Guess that hasn't changed....

    Those Italians in all of the videos of the fighting looked dark.

    I think they're the same WOPs that ruined the cheektavegas 4th of July fireworks and The lasalle park festivities. Not to mention what they've done to Ferguson and Baltimore.

    Yeah, what video? I was wondering whether it was Tony or Trevon doing the fighting.

    Correction - the one video I saw on facebook was Taneisha's fighting. but i doubt that fight was why the fest was shut down.

    Every time a bunch of Italians get together...there is nothing but trouble. We don't see this trouble at MLK Park festivals
