It is going to be a great summer to be in Downtown Rocky Mount!

So, you can go to a free event paid for, via your tax dollars, but they don’t want you to bring your own drinks or food.. Yes, they want you to buy over price junk food, drinks and if you are legal age, beer. I know the last time I went to one you had two vendors, the Boy Scout selling Pizza by the slice via (I think) pizza hut, and church group.. I don’t remember what group was selling the alcohol..

What happens if you do bring a cooler?? Will the local Thugs in RMPD uniforms force you to leave. MMM it makes one think doesn’t it..
